  The Boston Red Sox faced the Detroit Tigers for a Saturday afternoon game at Tigers Stadium on July 8, 1967.
• 0:15
  The Red Sox were led by the legendary Dick Williams in his first year as a manager.
• 0:20
  Boston entered the game with a 40-37 record.
• 0:23
  The Tigers were coached by Mayo Smith in his first year with the Tigers,
• 0:27
  having coached the Phillies and Reds in the mid-1950s
• 0:30
  before returning to baseball to manage a talented Tigers team that was on the rise.
• 0:35
  They entered the game in second place in the AL East with a 43-34 record.
• 0:39
  This is audio from the national TV broadcast featuring announcers Kurt Gowdy, Pee Wee Reese, and Sandy Kovacs.
• 0:46
  Hi everybody, this is Kurt Gowdy, your play-by-play broadcaster of NBC's Major League Baseball, along with Pee Wee Reese and Sandy Kovacs.
• 1:01
  Today we're in Tigers Stadium as two contending teams in the American League collide here.
• 1:07
  While the Minnesota Twins and Chicago White Sox are playing over in Chicago, the Tigers and the Red Sox are going at it here.
• 1:14
  And of course the Red Sox have been the surprise team of the American League this year.
• 1:18
  A club that finished ninth last year, which has many fine players, right now is in pen and contention
• 1:24
  and placed 47 games at home in the last half of the year.
• 1:29
  The Tigers went into a bad slump for a spell, losing 14 out of 19, but they bounced back now and have won five in a row.
• 1:37
  They defeated the Red Sox last night in 11 innings for their fifth victory in succession,
• 1:42
  but I believe Pee Wee Reese and Sandy Kovacs will concur that the Red Sox, with four hitters in the top ten of the league,
• 1:48
  came up with three runs to tie the ballgame last night in the ninth inning, and that's the kind of club they are.
• 1:53
  You can't count them out without hitting in any game. What do you think, Pee Wee?
• 1:57
  Well, Kurt, I'd have to agree with you, because the fans last night here, they had 25,000 of them.
• 2:02
  They did not leave this ballpark because they thought that this Boston club does have any quality ball club,
• 2:07
  and they showed just that, but they lost another one-one ballgame.
• 2:10
  I'm looking forward to seeing this Boston ball club, because we haven't seen them this year. Sandy, about you?
• 2:15
  Well, I feel the same way, Pee Wee. They've got some fine players on the ball club, like Kostramski and Petrocelli,
• 2:21
  that I've never seen. I've never seen them play, and I'm looking forward to seeing it.
• 2:25
  I know I'm going to see some of them in the All-Star game, but I want to see them before that.
• 2:29
  Well, it seems like that we do know this Boston ball club, because Mr. Gowdy is always talking about what a great ball club they have,
• 2:36
  and of course the Detroit ball club had a few injuries, but they're sticking right in there.
• 2:40
  I think they'll stay in there. If they can stay close until K-line gets back, I think they've got a good chance.
• 2:45
  It's a little tough on a ball club to lose, you know, the number one ball player on the club,
• 2:50
  and possibly the number one player in the league, and stay in there.
• 2:54
  It hurts them physically, on the field, and mentally, but if they stay close until his hand is better,
• 2:59
  I think they're going to be right up in it all year.
• 3:01
  Okay, Kurt, that's it from over here.
• 3:04
  All right, today's pitchers here on a beautiful afternoon in Detroit.
• 3:08
  Denny McClain, a right-hander, nine wins and nine losses, will be working for the Tigers.
• 3:13
  And another right-hander, Lee Stang, three wins, five losses, will be pitching for the Red Sox.
• 3:18
  NBC's Major League Baseball will continue from Tiger Stadium, Detroit, as the Boston Red Sox meet the Detroit Tigers.
• 3:27
  Are you ready for NBC Week?
• 3:36

  Are you ready for NBC Week?
• 4:24
  We'll be ready for you.
• 4:30
  Now, the batting orders for today's game for the visiting Boston Red Sox,
• 4:34
  at second base leading off will be Mike Andrews.
• 4:37
  Batting number two at third base will be Joe Floyd.
• 4:41
  In left field, hitting third, Carl Yastremski.
• 4:44
  The clean-up man in right field is Tony Canigliaro.
• 4:48
  The first baseman is George Scott, batting number five.
• 4:52
  Rico Petroselli is the shortstop, batting number six.
• 4:56
  Reggie Smith is the center field, batting seven.
• 5:00
  Mike Ryan will be catching, and the pitcher will be Lee Stang.
• 5:06
  Stang pitching, Ryan catching. The battery today for the Boston Red Sox.
• 5:17
  The Tigers will have Lenny Green in left field leading off.
• 5:21
  Gary Lumpy in third base, batting number two.
• 5:24
  Dick McCallop in second base, hitting third.
• 5:28
  Norm Cash in first base, batting clean-up.
• 5:31
  Jim Northrook in right field, batting number five.
• 5:35
  Bill Frean will be the catcher, hitting sixth.
• 5:38
  Mickey Stanley in center field, batting seventh.
• 5:42
  Ray Euler, the shortstop, batting eighth.
• 5:46
  And Denny McClain will be fishing today for the Tigers.
• 5:51
  And the men in blue are walking out, and they're really the men in blue today,
• 5:56
  with their lovely blue shirts and blue pants and blue caps
• 6:01
  in the American League here in the hot weather.
• 6:05
  They take off their jackets.
• 6:07
  They're Bill Valentine behind the plate, Marty Springstead at first base,
• 6:11
  Johnny Stevens umpiring at second, and Bob Stewart at third.
• 6:16
  Wally Moses out representing the Tigers, and Dick Williams,
• 6:21
  the rookie big league manager, exchanging a lineup card.
• 6:25
  He's looking right at you now over the shoulder of the umpire of the Red Sox.
• 6:32
  It's always interesting to note that they make out the lineups in triplicates,
• 6:37
  and when they go to the plate, they exchange lineup cards,
• 6:41
  where the umpire is having one and each manager is having a lineup card.
• 6:45
  Here are the standings right up to the minute now in the American League.
• 6:49
  Chicago won yesterday.
• 6:51
  They lead the Tigers by three, the Twins by three and a half, the Red Sox by six.
• 6:55
  Ladies and gentlemen, our national anthem.
• 7:25
  The National Anthem.
• 7:50
  The National Anthem.
• 8:09
  In the National League, the Cardinals won last night.
• 8:12
  They lead the Cubs now who lost their fifth in a row to Houston by two and a half,
• 8:16
  the Reds by four, the Braves by six, and the Giants by six.
• 8:22
  The Giants won last night against the Dodgers.
• 8:25
  They're sixth out instead of six and a half.
• 8:28
  Though we still do have two sizzling races here in the Major League
• 8:32
  as we're approaching the All-Star game break.
• 8:35
  The Tigers are on the field,
• 8:37
  and McLean is about to begin his warm-up pitches on a warm afternoon in Detroit.
• 8:42
  The temperature is in the 80s here, it's a little bit muggy.
• 8:46
  We have very little breeze.
• 8:48
  What breezer is is blowing from home plate out towards second base.
• 8:53
  This is one of the prettiest ballparks of the majors,
• 8:56
  and incidentally one of the best action or hitting ballparks.
• 8:59
  There's a good background here for the hitters,
• 9:02
  and the stands are within easy range in left field and right field,
• 9:06
  and also a low line drive is out here.
• 9:09
  So it's not an easy park to pitch in unless you make those batters hit us straight away,
• 9:13
  because there's a very deep center field here of 440 feet.
• 9:17
  The idea is to keep the right-handers and the left-handers from pulling,
• 9:21
  and to get them to hit into this deep center field.
• 9:23
  Now as Denny McLean warms up, let's have Sandy Kovacs talk about the Tigers starting pitcher.
• 9:29
  Kurt McLean's basically a fastball and curveball pitcher.
• 9:32
  They say he's working on a slider now,
• 9:35
  which might be because he has a little trouble with the curveball.
• 9:39
  He hangs a lot of them, gives up a lot of long balls, a lot of home runs.
• 9:43
  I think he's given up 23 already this year.
• 9:46
  And I think the slider might be an easier pitch for him to control.
• 9:50
  So he's trying to, you know, get another pitch to go with his good fastball and keep the ball down.
• 9:57
  Denny can be awfully tough when he keeps the ball down,
• 10:01
  because he's got good breaking stuff and a good fastball.
• 10:06
  All right, Sandy, Denny McLean, an accomplished Oregon player,
• 10:11
  is now pitching to Mike Andrews, who will be 24 years old tomorrow.
• 10:16
  He's one of the old men on this Boston ball club.
• 10:19
  Andrews batting 254, has three homers, 16 RBI.
• 10:23
  This is his rookie season. He played for Dick Williams at Toronto last year.
• 10:32
  He's a line drive type hitter, an excellent punter.
• 10:35
  He leads the American League to sacrifice punts for 12,
• 10:39
  and he led the International League to sacrifice punts last year.
• 10:43
  Andrews, boy, you're scrimpsy for the Red Sox in the top of the first.
• 10:51
  And he bloops it out in the center. It's going to drop for a base hit.
• 10:54
  He hit a curveball.
• 10:57
  Picked up out there by Mickey Stanley, so there goes your no hitter.
• 11:00
  The leadoff batter of the game, my hand is on first.
• 11:04
  And Joe Foy coming up, batting 231 with 12 homers, 28 runs batted in.
• 11:11
  Foy got off to a very slow start.
• 11:15
  He has now been hitting over 300, though, in his last 30 game.
• 11:18
  He's coming along, and the Red Sox think he'll have a solid second half of the season with a bat.
• 11:25
  He's a straightaway hitter, has a lot of power to left center and right center.
• 11:34
  Playing cursing with ball one, he's just too big on deck.
• 11:39
  These are two of the best batting ball clubs in the American League.
• 11:42
  The Red Sox lead the league in batting,
• 11:45
  and the Tigers and Red Sox are tied for the lead in home runs in the American League.
• 11:49
  They meet you at 78 homers.
• 11:52
  The way it's going with those bats, you have some action,
• 11:55
  and they both play in ballparks that favor the hitters, Benway Park and Tiger Stadium.
• 12:01
  One ball, no strikes.
• 12:04
  Fastball is up high, it's two and nothing.
• 12:10
  Foy is a New York boy. Foreign Air still lives there.
• 12:15
  Last time the Red Sox were in New York while they were playing the Yankees,
• 12:19
  his parents' home burned down.
• 12:24
  And he went out and helped his parents move.
• 12:28
  It's a meaningful weekend for him, one that he'll never forget, ball free.
• 12:41
  Foy looks the ball over well. He led the Red Sox to watch last year.
• 12:45
  Andrew's the first.
• 12:48
  Nobody out top of the first inning.
• 12:52
  He walked on four pitches. Now the Red Sox have runners on first and second.
• 12:56
  Nobody out.
• 12:59
  And Carl Yaspersky coming up.
• 13:02
  He's been in a slump.
• 13:04
  He's a streaky hitter. When he gets hot, oh, he can be as hot as anyone in baseball.
• 13:09
  And he can cool off and have his problem.
• 13:14
  He had only one hit in his last 19 times up, but he's still right up there in the batting title race, hitting 313.
• 13:22
  Frank Robinson leads the league with 337, Yaspersky's third in batting.
• 13:31
  Right away for him, he's pulling the ball more this year than he has in the past.
• 13:36
  He used to be almost a dead opposite field hitter.
• 13:40
  Right to him.
• 13:43
  Vaniglia will be on deck. Andrew's is the second.
• 13:46
  Boy up first. Nobody out.
• 13:57
  Yaspersky's had 18 homers.
• 14:00
  He had 20 the entire season last year. He's knocked in 54 runs.
• 14:07
  A one-strike delivery. There's a line shot.
• 14:10
  Cash has it. Roach the second.
• 14:12
  And back to first.
• 14:15
  He was going for the triple play. He had a six-double play at first.
• 14:19
  He flipped over to Andrews, and Andrews is double off.
• 14:22
  But Ray Euler, the shortstop, making the play.
• 14:26
  Cash had visions of a triple play at that time.
• 14:29
  He saw he had easily doubled off first.
• 14:32
  Boy, all he had to do was run over there and step on the bag.
• 14:35
  But he was hoping to get the toss to second and then back to him at first for the triple play.
• 14:40
  And that was a fairly close play at second for the double play.
• 14:53
  Quickly two down on a line drive, and here's Canigliaro up,
• 14:56
  and he's been the hottest batter for the Red Sox.
• 14:59
  He's hit five homers his last nine games.
• 15:03
  Boy, getting back.
• 15:11
  He had also 30 runs batted in in his last 26 games.
• 15:15
  In other words, he's been getting an RBI for every ball game.
• 15:19
  He got off to a slow start, and then he went into the service for two weeks to set him back.
• 15:24
  Right, he's still a baby.
• 15:42
  He's had a play with the Red Sox at 64, and he's only 22 years old.
• 15:53
  Boy, at first two down, no score.
• 15:57
  One ball, one strike.
• 16:09
  Canigliaro has not been injured this year.
• 16:12
  He's had a penance for getting bones broken.
• 16:15
  He's had three broken bones.
• 16:18
  High fly, right center.
• 16:19
  Mickey Stanley galloping over, all good in and that's a fire as a start.
• 16:24
  No run.
• 16:25
  One hit for the Red Sox.
• 16:26
  There were no errors, and one man left.
• 16:28
  Medal of the first inning, our score.
• 16:30
  The Red Sox, nothing that baggers are coming to back.
• 16:38
  You're new in the Legion, huh?
• 16:40
  Yeah.
• 16:41
  Why did you join?
• 16:43
  Went out of town one day.
• 16:45
  Business. Took the family's right guard with me.
• 16:49
  You left your whole family defenseless?
• 16:53
  Yeah.
• 16:54
  Get off my sand dune.
• 16:56
  Gillette right guard.
• 16:58
  The perfect personal family deodorant, because nothing touches you but the spray itself.
• 17:03
  Don't leave your family defenseless.
• 17:05
  Get an extra Gillette right guard.
• 17:10
  Oh, am I getting a terrible shave?
• 17:18
  Oh, am I getting a terrible shave?
• 17:23
  Here, Henry, stop that moaning.
• 17:28
  Oh, am I getting a wonderful shave?
• 17:36
  Oh.
• 17:40
  Lee Stang warming up.
• 17:42
  Sandy Kovacs on Mr. Stang.
• 17:44
  Kurt Stang is three and five this year.
• 17:46
  He's had a sore arm all spring.
• 17:48
  They think he's come around now.
• 17:51
  He's a sinker-slider type pitcher.
• 17:54
  He'll throw that fastball inside and try and move the right-hand hitters back a little bit,
• 17:58
  try and make you hit the slider, which is probably his best pitch.
• 18:02
  Stang will throw an overhand curveball mostly to the left-hand hitters.
• 18:08
  He doesn't throw too many to the right-hand hitters,
• 18:10
  but he'll try and throw that straight overhand curveball to the left-handers as a third pitch to them.
• 18:18
  Lenny Green, 13th professional baseball season, leading off for the Tigers,
• 18:25
  called up from their Toledo Farm Club, and the first pitch is in there for a strike.
• 18:32
  K-line out, Gates Brown is out, Willie Horton is ailing.
• 18:36
  He may not play regular the rest of the year.
• 18:38
  Tigers were just with their outfielders, so they made a trade to get better than Jim Landis
• 18:42
  and brought Lenny Green up.
• 18:44
  Green was released by the Red Sox.
• 18:46
  He hit that on the line to Mike Andrews, and there's one down.
• 18:50
  And Green has been hitting that ball since the Tigers brought him up.
• 18:53
  That's what he's been coming through for.
• 18:56
  Here's Jerry Lumpy, batting 191.
• 19:00
  Here's another line drive back there.
• 19:05
  Don Wirt, the regular third baseman of the Tigers, has a full hamstring muscle.
• 19:09
  The Lumpy's in the lineup.
• 19:16
  One-half, nobody on. Ball one.
• 19:24
  Remember how small Bobby Shands used to be?
• 19:26
  Well, this fellow's not much bigger. He weighs about 162, 63 pounds.
• 19:32
  One-oh delivery. Strike.
• 19:35
  Peewee, I think by the time he hangs in this ball game when it's over,
• 19:38
  he'll weigh about 154, 55 in his hot day.
• 19:42
  He understands a good chance of losing a little bit, because it's not inhuman here to drive today,
• 19:46
  but usually these little fellows can take it better than the big ones.
• 19:51
  Blowing away, ball two, strike one to Jerry Lumpy, Dick McCollough on deck.
• 19:57
  These Tigers are loaded with left-handed batters.
• 20:03
  We have five of them in their lineup. Two-one fits. Half the letter is two and two.
• 20:16
  Stang's been with the twins and the Indians.
• 20:23
  Two-two fits. Now we go three and two to Jerry Lumpy.
• 20:39
  One-out, nobody on.
• 20:45
  Wraps it sharply to George Scott. George makes the play and he's there, two down.
• 20:53
  George Scott of Greenville, Mississippi, told us today that his mother's watching him play.
• 20:58
  She bought a television set, especially for this game.
• 21:02
  My mother's name's Magnolia, and he says, say hello to my mom.
• 21:05
  She's looking in, never seen me play in the big leagues before, and he says,
• 21:10
  I've got to get a couple long taters for today. I've got to get two long hits and make two good plays in the field for us.
• 21:17
  So we'll see how he does today. He's played a fielding first base.
• 21:21
  Two down, nobody on, and Dick McCollough up batting, two-fifty-two.
• 21:27
  Here the fellow never looks too comfortable to play, does he, T.W.?
• 21:31
  No, he doesn't. I would say there's a very unusual stance of you watching now.
• 21:35
  He looks like a cigar, cigars go in in that there, but he can swing them back.
• 21:41
  He pops it up for this fellow right. Tony Canigliero's there.
• 21:47
  And it's an easy one-two-three inning for Lee Stang.
• 21:50
  The Tigers three-up, three-down at the end of the first inning to score.
• 21:53
  The Red Sox nothing, and the Tigers nothing.
• 22:01
  It's not how long you make it. It's how you make it long.
• 22:14
  Now Winston makes a super game with a taste that's Winston good.
• 22:20
  Yes, now Winston makes an extra-long cigarette that tastes good, like only a Winston could,
• 22:26
  with an extra measure of the famous quality that has made Winston America's largest selling cigarette.
• 22:35
  Anyone can make a long cigarette, but just length alone won't give you the taste you're looking for.
• 22:41
  Remember, it's not how long you make it. It's how you make it long.
• 22:50
  Pick up a pack of new super king-size Winstons today.
• 22:54
  Tastes good. It's good. It's Winston.
• 23:04
  And here's George Scott now, Greenville, Mississippi up.
• 23:08
  Heading 293, he's at 10 homers, 40 runs batted in.
• 23:20
  When he gets a hold of one, he can ride it about as far as anybody in the game.
• 23:30
  All one doing, it'll be Scott Petticelli and Reggie Smith for the Red Sox in a second.
• 23:42
  Little change-up, backhanded by McLean, tosses him out, and we have one down.
• 23:48
  Here's the starting shortstop for the American League in the All-Star Game at Anaheim Tuesday, Rico Petticelli.
• 23:55
  The strike, he's been out of action about 10 days. He was hit on the wrist, the right wrist. You can see it taped up.
• 24:04
  And he broke back into the lineup last night.
• 24:11
  One ball, one strike, Petticelli batting 300, has eight homers, 33 RBI.
• 24:18
  Red Sox have four of the top 10 batters in the American League.
• 24:24
  And he hits that on the line, the shortstop, two down.
• 24:30
  Ray Orler has been playing a mess of shortstop for the Tigers the last month.
• 24:35
  Reggie Smith coming up, a boy who led the International League in batting last year with a 320 average, is off to a slow start.
• 24:42
  But he's starting to come around. He's a switch hitter, batting 216.
• 24:51
  He can run, too. He was drafted out of the Minnesota Twins organization by the Red Sox.
• 24:58
  Ball one, two down, nobody on, no score, top of the second, MVC's Major League Baseball.
• 25:09
  One and one to him.
• 25:23
  One-one pitch to Reggie Smith is two and one. Al McLean has allowed 23 homers this year, one every five innings.
• 25:33
  Last year he gave up 42 homers, the most homeruns given up by a pitcher in the Major League.
• 25:40
  He has that gopher ball problem. Bounding ball to Norm Cash.
• 25:45
  Does it on his own, and the Red Sox are three up, three down in the second.
• 25:49
  In the middle of the second inning, the score is the Red Sox nothing, the Tigers nothing.
• 25:58
  No matter what your mode of travel or how much luxury you've grown accustomed to,
• 26:04
  it's easy to get carried away by the long, fine-car looks of Plymouth Fury
• 26:11
  and by a price that seems meager to anyone who appreciates sport luxury.
• 26:16
  Fury's a distinctive car everywhere. Big for the low price field.
• 26:24
  Big on extra value features.
• 26:30
  And under the luxury, lightweight.
• 26:35
  The most powerful standard V8 in its class, all of which accounts for the great popularity of Fury 67.
• 26:44
  Plymouth is out to win you over this year. Follow your heart, see your Plymouth dealer today.
• 26:57
  He didn't get last night's scores here. In 11 innings, the Tigers beat the Red Sox 5-4.
• 27:02
  It was Cleveland 6, Washington 3, New York shut out, Baltimore 3-0, White Sox nipped Minnesota 2-1.
• 27:09
  The Angels took a double header from the A's 7-2, 8-2. We'll give the nationally scores a little bit later.
• 27:14
  And those Angels really got red hot the last month, did we?
• 27:18
  They certainly have, Kurt. They were 1,200 or 1,500 just not too long ago.
• 27:22
  And it looked to me like Mr. Rigney, the manager, may be in a little trouble.
• 27:26
  But right now, he's got that ball club along and they're only 6 behind. They're 43 and 40.
• 27:31
  This ball club is ready to move. Glad to see it for Bill Rigney's sake.
• 27:36
  And we'll be out in Anaheim Tuesday. That's the home of the Angels for the annual All-Star Game.
• 27:41
  It will be seen on NBC television and heard on NBC radio.
• 27:45
  Andy and I will be there to cover the game.
• 27:50
  And we're looking forward to having Buddy Blattner, the very fine broadcaster of the California Angels,
• 27:55
  working with us on both television and radio. Top man, buddy.
• 27:58
  There's a high fly, center field, Reggie Smith calling for it. And Norm Cash flies out on the first pitch and the last for the second.
• 28:09
  The gray fox coming up. Jim Northrup. He's young, but he's starting to get those gray hairs.
• 28:17
  He gets some pitchers gray hairs, too. He's batting 276.
• 28:21
  Or Homer's 31 RBI. He'll spray the ball around. He hits with power to left center.
• 28:31
  He had the mumps a few weeks ago.
• 28:37
  One out, nobody on. Lee Stang's pitch. He's ball one to him. Bill Freehand is on deck.
• 28:54
  A strike to him, one and one. Northrup graduated from Elm College, Elm of Michigan.
• 29:01
  He won letters in five sports. Quite an athlete. One one pitch to him.
• 29:09
  Strike. We're about as close to the playing field here as any broadcast location in the Major League.
• 29:17
  Our NBC booth is suspended just above the Tiger on deck circle.
• 29:24
  You can almost reach out down there. Looking right down at Bill Freehand now, right down below him.
• 29:32
  They're talking about that. You better watch his left-handed hitters, or we may get a little line driving this booth.
• 29:37
  And I know that you'll be the first one to jump up there and grab it.
• 29:41
  I'll be the first one under the table.
• 29:44
  That's right. For years here, I've worked here, Peewee, and you've got to watch out.
• 29:49
  These liners, wow, come up here. They really come up here. Strike free to Northrup. Two down.
• 29:58
  Slow motion to Northrup's swing.
• 30:03
  That's got under that pitch.
• 30:10
  Two down, nobody on, and Bill Freehand up.
• 30:14
  He'll be the starting catcher in the All-Star game for the American League.
• 30:21
  He's on his way to a record that is not too pleasant.
• 30:26
  Ball one, he's been hit 12 times this year, and the Tiger record for being hit most times in the season by a pitcher of 17 held by Heine Menouch back in 1923.
• 30:40
  We have no score, last to the second.
• 30:44
  Ball two.
• 30:45
  It looks like every time we show a slow motion shot of a batter, he always swings over the top of the ball.
• 30:51
  Wasn't a ball player one time had his shoes built up because he kept swinging over the top of the ball?
• 31:03
  Downing ball to Joe Foy at third. Fires across to Scott, and that's it. They're down one, two, three in the last of the second inning.
• 31:11
  So at the end of the second, the score, nothing to nothing.
• 31:21
  The Gillette Tecmatic Razor costs $295. Ask your face about it.
• 31:29
  How about it?
• 31:30
  I thought you'd never ask. I want one.
• 31:33
  Why?
• 31:34
  Look, I can't stand pressure. The lighter a razor feels, the better I feel. And this Tecmatic feels very light.
• 31:42
  Now, Knicks. Do you know what one Nick can do to my pride? With the Tecmatic, you're just not going to Nick me so much. That's a fact.
• 31:50
  You're very sensitive.
• 31:52
  Yes. Another thing about the Tecmatic, this crank, it unwinds a super stainless steel band. It's so easy.
• 31:59
  You won't keep shaving me with a worn out edge just because you are too lazy to get nasty, too lazy to change blades while you're shaving.
• 32:08
  You'll flip that lever. Hey, you really do want a Gillette Tecmatic, don't you?
• 32:13
  Why didn't you say so before? Oh, faces should be seen, not heard.
• 32:22
  We want to remind you that the telecast and broadcast time of the All-Star Game Tuesday will be 7 o'clock Eastern Daylight Time, 6 o'clock Central, 5 o'clock Mountain, and 4 o'clock Pacific Time, Tuesday, July 11th, another NBC Sports exclusive.
• 32:39
  Mike Bryan from Haverhill, Massachusetts. Leading off, you'll be followed by Lee Stang, and then to the top of the order from Mike Andrews.
• 32:48
  They have no score. Red Sox have the only hit of the game.
• 32:52
  We're in the top of the third.
• 32:55
  Ball one.
• 32:57
  Playing using a lot of slow stuff, mixing it up with his fastball so far.
• 33:06
  Ryan caught a game recently. He didn't know it, but he had a dislocated knuckle.
• 33:11
  And knocked him three runs during the game.
• 33:14
  One ball, one strike, they had to put the knuckle back in place after the game.
• 33:19
  Played by the left, that knuckle out of place.
• 33:26
  Ground ball to third baseman Jerry Lumpy.
• 33:28
  It's flipped across and we have one down.
• 33:32
  And officially Stang comes out. It reminds me, Pee Wee, of the 1950 All-Star Game in Chicago.
• 33:38
  He probably played in that game. Ted Williams crashed into the wall at Comiskey Park and fractured his elbow.
• 33:44
  And they had to operate on him a few days later and they took about, oh, three or four inches of elbow bone out.
• 33:51
  And he stayed in that game and swung the bat and got a line by a single with a fractured elbow.
• 33:56
  Yes, I do remember that I was there. Of course Williams, imagine he could hit right now. He hit.350 to put him back in uniform.
• 34:05
  Ball one. A lot of people wonder about Ted. What's he doing? Where he is?
• 34:10
  He makes his winter home in Isla Morada, Florida and he's in Lakeville, Massachusetts right now.
• 34:16
  He has a boys' camp there in Cape Cod.
• 34:19
  And so he combines between the two. One ball, one strike.
• 34:26
  Did Ted Williams ever think about managing the Red Sox? I'm sure he could have had the job if he wanted.
• 34:32
  He never wanted to manage. He said he would never want to manage and wanted no part of it.
• 34:38
  So they get another Williams. Right.
• 34:44
  One out, nobody on. One ball, one strike.
• 34:49
  That's right. Williams always said, I might have had a little problem with the press. No.
• 34:59
  One ball, two strikes. The Lee Stang, one out, nobody on.
• 35:07
  That's a ball, two and two. The twins and the White Sox are underway. No score at the end of the first inning.
• 35:14
  Merritt against Johns. Washington scoreless in their first inning. They're playing at Cleveland. It'll be Joe Coleman against Louis Tion.
• 35:25
  The rest of the actions tonight in the American League. All three to the opposing figure.
• 35:30
  In the National League, the Pirates are leading Cincinnati 2-0 at the end of the first inning.
• 35:34
  Norigo against Sisk. Los Angeles and San Francisco haven't started.
• 35:39
  And the rest of the National League games are tonight.
• 35:43
  Three and two pitch to Lee Stang. A walk-in. Lost him with the head on the count.
• 35:50
  The runner-on first, one out. Mike Andrews coming up. You know, before the game we asked Dick Williams, the rookie manager of the Red Sox,
• 35:58
  if he thought the Red Sox would stay in contention the rest of the year.
• 36:02
  Kurt, I think we'll get stronger as we go along. We've been losing a lot of one-run ball games and winning an awful lot the past couple of weeks.
• 36:12
  But this ball club doesn't give up. It's a young ball club. It's gaining experience as the season progresses.
• 36:18
  And our pitching is getting stronger as we go along. So I look for us to be up in contention the full year.
• 36:25
  Ball one. By the way, Dick's mother, Mrs. Hodl, from San Gabriel Valley in Alph... let's see... Arcadia, California, in Alphadena.
• 36:45
  Watching Dick today, we understand. NBC outlet out there.
• 36:52
  He played with Dick, did he?
• 36:55
  Yes, sir, I certainly did. And I saw him when he'd go for a ball in Edmonds Field. I heard he showed and I think he'd been a real fine outfielder.
• 37:04
  Andrews takes ball two, two and one.
• 37:07
  It was nice to hear Bobby Dorough, the great second baseman for the Red Sox for a number of years, who's now coaching for him at first base,
• 37:13
  say that he thought that Williams had to take full credit for this ball club doing what it has done this year.
• 37:19
  He's done a real great job in getting this ball club to be in the country club and to be a real contender.
• 37:26
  Andrews hits that fly ball to Nicky Stanley.
• 37:29
  And a fielder, two down. Stangs it first. And Joe Foy up one.
• 37:36
  This game comes to you from Tiger Stadium in Detroit, live and in color, exclusively on NBC.
• 37:50
  We have no score.
• 37:53
  We're at the top of the third inning. The Red Sox have two down and Lee Stangs it first.
• 38:00
  Foy's still batting two thirty-one.
• 38:07
  He's right, he's caught that bad high up there, doesn't he?
• 38:11
  Just noticing that, Kurt, we were talking about it a while ago, you know, Stemsky and Reggie Smith, a lot of them have that closed stance a little bit like Ted Williams.
• 38:20
  I guess he's taught this ball club his frame of mind, hasn't he?
• 38:23
  Not only that, he's worked with them, you know, down the minors. They're the high fly to straightaway center.
• 38:28
  Stanley has flipped those sunglasses down.
• 38:32
  That's it.
• 38:34
  Three put-outs for center fielder Stanley so far. And the Red Sox are all out on the third.
• 38:38
  They had no runs, no hits, there were no errors, but one man left.
• 38:42
  So in the middle of the third inning, the score, the Red Sox nothing and the Tigers nothing.
• 38:47
  Now Winston makes a super king, a Winston super king.
• 39:01
  Did you say Winston makes a super king, a super king-size Winston?
• 39:05
  Yes, Winston makes a super king with a taste that's Winston good.
• 39:09
  It's not how long you make it.
• 39:16
  It's how you make it long. So try a Winston super king.
• 39:24
  Anyone can make a long cigarette.
• 39:29
  But it's not how long you make it, it's how you make it long.
• 39:32
  And only Winston can give you an extra measure of the famous quality that has made Winston America's largest selling cigarette.
• 39:39
  Pick up a tall, golden red pack of new super king-size Winstons today.
• 39:44
  Taste good. It's good. It's Winston.
• 39:51
  The Tigers bottom of the order coming up in the last of the third inning. Stanley, Euler, and McLean facing Lee Stang.
• 40:05
  Stang's 30 years old, lives now in St. Louis Park, Minnesota.
• 40:09
  The boys facing Mickey Stanley can really play a marvelous defensive out there.
• 40:15
  His hitting has been doubtful.
• 40:19
  He can go get that ball, batting to 18.
• 40:23
  Four homers, 14 RBI.
• 40:30
  Ball one. Stang attended Drake University, played baseball, basketball, and football there.
• 40:37
  This is his 11th pro season.
• 40:40
  He came to the Red Sox last year along with Don McMahon and the trade for Dick Raddatz.
• 40:45
  In fact, the Indians have given the Red Sox two starters, Stang and Gary Bell.
• 40:51
  They've needed some pitching.
• 40:53
  And they suddenly have come up with the best pitching staff they've had in a long time.
• 40:57
  They're about third or fourth in the league now in team pitching.
• 41:04
  They've played the last 20-some games, nobody has scored over three runs a game on them, or over four.
• 41:10
  They're getting good, steady pitches.
• 41:13
  High pop-up. George Scott, the first baseman.
• 41:17
  Foul ground, one out.
• 41:21
  The next batter, batting 208, no homers, 14 RBI.
• 41:31
  Laying the pitcher will be up next.
• 41:46
  Ball one.
• 41:56
  One out, nobody on.
• 42:00
  And the third.
• 42:07
  Stang's lifetime record against the Tigers is five wins, six losses.
• 42:14
  Two and one, Ray Euler, OY LER.
• 42:31
  A two-one delivery.
• 42:33
  Three and one now.
• 42:37
  He doesn't walk many.
• 42:41
  He gives up about two walks every night hitting three pitches.
• 42:49
  And now he's behind three and one to Ray Euler.
• 42:53
  Way in two.
• 43:06
  Pretty good crowd here today, Saturday afternoon, Tiger Stadium.
• 43:11
  Three-two delivery.
• 43:13
  Bounding ball, Petticelli.
• 43:19
  And Euler's on.
• 43:23
  That's an error, charge to Rico Petticelli.
• 43:33
  So, George Scott, Reese analyzed this one for you.
• 43:36
  Well, you can take a look.
• 43:37
  He got to, he didn't get a short hop.
• 43:38
  He got about a three-quarter hop, and that's the toughest play you can get from a shortstop.
• 43:43
  And Rico couldn't find the handle.
• 43:48
  Say one thing about this, Kurt, this young shortstop you've been telling me about.
• 43:51
  He can hit that curve ball.
• 43:52
  If he can hit the curve ball, you're going to be a good hitter.
• 43:59
  Pressed the button, fouled it off.
• 44:04
  Mike Andrews diving in.
• 44:12
  Rico's elbow.
• 44:16
  We have no score.
• 44:29
  After the third inning here, the Tigers have one out, Ray Euler at first base.
• 44:36
  And the count is nothing in one to Dennis McLean.
• 44:51
  There's a take at the right field.
• 44:54
  They're stopping a runner at second.
• 44:56
  It's Kanigale Aero Petticelli.
• 44:58
  Dennis McLean, a pitcher, against the first hit for the Tigers.
• 45:03
  Runners on first and second, and Lenny Green coming up.
• 45:08
  He was batting 0-68.
• 45:13
  He'll be talking about that one for a month.
• 45:17
  Looks like Stang tried to throw him a high fastball, Kurt, making it difficult to butt it.
• 45:21
  And a high fastball is probably a little easier to hit it.
• 45:27
  Oh, the Detroit Tigers have a threat going on, the last of the third, with one down, runners on first and second.
• 45:51
  A strike to Lenny Green. Lined out the second his first time.
• 45:57
  Lenny didn't have too far to go to join the Tigers. He was playing at Toledo.
• 46:02
  His home is here in Detroit, and he was commuting to Toledo to play minor league baseball.
• 46:12
  There's a blooper to left at the base hit.
• 46:14
  Coming in the score, the Swenski throw comes through the side of the line.
• 46:23
  Holding the second base is McLean.
• 46:27
  Lenny Green really filling the bill for the injured Gates Brown and Willie Horton.
• 46:36
  There's been quite a job since they brought him up.
• 46:42
  The Tigers lead now one to nothing.
• 46:46
  Runners on first and second one out, Jerry Lump, he's grounded out his first time.
• 47:15
  Ball back, strike one.
• 47:19
  I heard that you were talking about a while ago that the cross ball club has put five left-henders to start this lineup.
• 47:25
  We saw it here last night.
• 47:27
  Dick Williams came to the left-hander the first opportunity he had.
• 47:31
  I wouldn't be a bit surprised if he does it today.
• 47:33
  There's no one, no accident to pull up in right now though.
• 47:39
  Strike fifth, hammered foul on the ground, strike two.
• 47:45
  Now Williams is moaning a daze.
• 47:49
  I wish I had a couple left-hander starters to throw at these fellows in this ballpark.
• 47:52
  The Red Sox, this Mel Parnell retired.
• 47:56
  Oh, I've always had trouble coming up with a left-hander starting pitcher.
• 47:59
  They've pushed the ballparks against the left-hander there in Boston,
• 48:03
  but they've never been able to get any left-handers on their staff.
• 48:06
  Good starters.
• 48:08
  You see them against clubs here like the Tigers and the White Sox.
• 48:13
  Yankees have a better on all those fellows.
• 48:16
  One ball, two strikes.
• 48:18
  Do you think the Red Sox maybe sometime built their ball club around their home park in Boston?
• 48:27
  I believe most of the time.
• 48:29
  I think most clubs do though, don't they, do you?
• 48:33
  Do I have to answer that?
• 48:37
  I mean you play after games there, you should take advantage of these.
• 48:43
  Geography, one ball, two strikes.
• 48:45
  Yankees always look for those left-handed full-headers.
• 48:47
  The Dodgers, when they moved to L.A., they wanted speed and pitching out there, didn't they, Sandy?
• 48:52
  Yes they did, Kurt, and the Yankees always had pretty good left-handed pitching.
• 48:59
  Tigers like the left-handed full-headers here.
• 49:03
  It's only 325 down the line.
• 49:06
  The first thing that came to my mind was the old Dodgers, of course, you can always talk about because playing with them is so long.
• 49:11
  We had eight or seven right-handed hitters and we had a right-field fence about 290.
• 49:19
  Change-up full, Jerry Loughlin struck you out.
• 49:21
  That's right, Snyder was the only one to really take aim on that fence, wasn't he?
• 49:24
  That's right, of course, as you've said many of the time, it was a band box anyway.
• 49:31
  That way I have to needle you a little bit.
• 49:35
  Two down.
• 49:37
  Right-hander's at first and second and Dick McCullough's about to flat out his first time.
• 49:42
  Tigers are leading 1-0 here and the last to the third.
• 49:59
  Ball in, McCullough.
• 50:07
  It's funny sometimes what misfortune can do to a person, an organization, or an athletic team.
• 50:16
  And misfortune right now seems to sort of spur the Tigers on.
• 50:19
  It's right.
• 50:22
  They have one-five in a row, seven of their last nine without K-line and Willie Horton and Gates Brown in the lineup.
• 50:32
  The boys all knew they all had to bear down harder to make up for their absence.
• 50:37
  One-and-one to Dick McCullough.
• 50:41
  The Plains at second, plenty of greens at first.
• 50:45
  Her ball missing. Two-and-one.
• 51:06
  Two down.
• 51:08
  Two-one pitch.
• 51:10
  Three-and-one going.
• 51:14
  Norman Cash on deck.
• 51:16
  Into two innings, the Twins and the Whitesides. No score.
• 51:37
  Three-one delivery.
• 51:39
  Ops it up. Outside of first base, George Scott. Waiting for that one to come down.
• 51:46
  So Stang gets out of the jam.
• 51:49
  In the third, the Tigers had one run, two hits, one Red Sox error, and two men left.
• 51:57
  At the end of the third inning, the score of the Tigers, one and the Red Sox, nothing.
• 52:04
  1965. Remember the Indianapolis 500? Rookie Jimmy Clark won in record time.
• 52:11
  The entire Northeast went dark in history's biggest blackout.
• 52:15
  Women discovered the miniskirt, and Paul Benson tried Ballantine beer for the first time.
• 52:21
  It's okay, but I still like my beer better.
• 52:24
  Now that bothered us, so we did something about it.
• 52:27
  1967, and Paul Benson tries Ballantine again.
• 52:31
  Now that's a great glass of beer. What'd they do?
• 52:34
  We improved. It's not easy to make a good beer better, but we did it.
• 52:40
  1967 Ballantine is so good, it's now a premium beer. And it says so right on the label.
• 52:46
  Ballantine's got the flavor that's in. Hey friends, do it again. Ballantine beer.
• 52:55
  Hey friends, do it again. Ballantine, Ballantine beer.
• 53:00
  Ballantine premium beer.
• 53:05
  We pause briefly for station identification. This is the NBC television network.
• 53:11
  Channel 6 Connected.
• 53:18
  Kurt Gowdy, Pee Wee, Reece Sandicoffax with you again from Tiger Stadium.
• 53:22
  As we're going to the fourth inning, Yastremski, Kanigaleiro, and Scott up for the Red Sox.
• 53:27
  There's Carl Yastremski, won a batting title three years ago.
• 53:31
  Before the game, we ask him his chance of winning another American League batting championship.
• 53:35
  Well Kurt, I don't want to predict anything. Right now I'm down about 315, 314, somewhere in that area.
• 53:42
  Plus you have Tony Oliva coming in on strong, hitting the ball well.
• 53:47
  Expect him to improve, and also you have Kalei and Robinson.
• 53:50
  It's a tough thing to say. You just go out and put out 100% every day, and let's see what happens.
• 53:55
  They all want a pennant.
• 53:58
  Well, they all want a pennant, Boston. They want one here in Detroit, too.
• 54:02
  They haven't had them for a long time.
• 54:07
  Carl hit it and lined into a double play his first time.
• 54:10
  Oh, and we have a wire here from Winter Haven, Florida. That's the spring training base of the Red Sox.
• 54:19
  Winter Haven, Florida, very proud of the time record of the team, offers heartiest congratulations.
• 54:26
  There's a line drive in the gap in right center.
• 54:29
  That ball is going back to the wall. Yastremski's going in a second, and he has a stand-up double.
• 54:35
  He's led the American League in doubles three of the last four years.
• 54:42
  The telegram was signed, George Parton, Jr., president of Winter Haven Chamber of Commerce. Thank you.
• 54:49
  Tony Canigliaro flied out to center field his first time.
• 54:53
  That was Yastremski's 16th double over here.
• 55:09
  You ever hear one of his rock and roll records, Canigliaro?
• 55:13
  No, I haven't heard.
• 55:14
  What a good rock singer.
• 55:24
  How's it out of place, back one?
• 55:28
  Last winter, Tony, he's never been much of it.
• 55:34
  Yastremski's second, a hunter of fishermen, and a friend of his, a pilot with one of the airlines,
• 55:40
  talked him into going over to Africa on a safari.
• 55:43
  Tony said it cost me $5,000, but it was worth it.
• 55:47
  He had the time of his life, went on a six-week safari.
• 55:51
  One ball, one strike.
• 55:54
  Must be single, isn't it?
• 55:56
  He is.
• 56:02
  Dennis McLean pitching to Tony Canigliaro with the Tigers ahead one to nothing.
• 56:06
  We're in the fourth inning.
• 56:08
  Yastremski's on second, nobody out.
• 56:19
  Slow ball, a little bit high, two and one.
• 56:32
  Canigliaro, he attacks the ball, he sticks his head right over that plate, charges right into it.
• 56:39
  He's aggressive at the plate. Three and one to him now.
• 56:54
  Yastremski getting his lead.
• 56:58
  Fourth inning, NBC's Major League Baseball. Hope you're enjoying the game this Saturday.
• 57:06
  Fly ball out to Mickey Stanley. Yastremski's tagging a second.
• 57:10
  Stanley's deep, grabs it, is firing a third.
• 57:13
  Good throw, a little bit off. Yastremski's in the third base.
• 57:17
  That's the fourth putout for Mickey Stanley.
• 57:20
  Now the Red Sox have a tying run at third with one down.
• 57:24
  And George Scott coming up, rolled out to the pitcher his first time.
• 57:34
  He explains doing one thing to you, he's making those batters hit that ball straight away for the most part.
• 57:40
  Yes he is, Curtin. I was thinking that with a count three and one on Canigliaro.
• 57:45
  He's been hot lately.
• 57:47
  I didn't think he would get too good of a pitch to hit.
• 57:49
  Of course that was not a bad pitch, he's a curve ball out away from him.
• 57:52
  That fooled him a little bit.
• 57:54
  Of course George Scott is no soft touch.
• 57:57
  They're appealing a second base.
• 58:03
  And the second base umpire, Stephen Gelover to the first base umpire who had called to play.
• 58:11
  The second base umpire was going out to watch the play in center field.
• 58:14
  So Springstead had been covering, watching the runner tag a second, a strike.
• 58:21
  And they said Yastremski's tag all right went on to third, didn't leave too soon.
• 58:26
  One strike to George Scott.
• 58:33
  Yastremski a third, one down.
• 58:40
  Scott hitting 292.
• 58:44
  Flows the fastball in there, oh and two.
• 58:50
  Scott last year hit a lot of home runs early in the year.
• 58:55
  He was going downtown on every pitch.
• 58:57
  Now he's just trying to hit the ball back to the middle this year and hit the right field.
• 59:00
  He struck out a lot last year.
• 59:04
  Every now and then he'll take a big ripple though.
• 59:07
  No balls, just strikes.
• 59:16
  That hurts Kurt.
• 59:28
  You got the man on third and less than two out and you don't get a piece of the ball.
• 59:32
  He's got no chance.
• 59:35
  I would say he did a pretty good job of pitching too.
• 59:37
  He just got through curving Penigliari two or three times there.
• 59:41
  And Scott may have been looking for a curveball.
• 59:43
  He hit him two fastballs and I guess he was still waiting for that curveball.
• 59:46
  He threw him three fastballs, he took all three of them.
• 59:49
  And Feticelli takes ball one.
• 59:53
  Two down, Yastremski a third.
• 59:54
  Yastremski led off this inning with a double.
• 59:56
  The Tigers are ahead one to nothing.
• 59:59
  Fourth inning.
• 1:00:08
  The Panthers slow and two and oh. The Twins and the White Sox now have gone three innings, no score.
• 1:00:16
  Jim Merritt against Tommy John.
• 1:00:19
  Washington leads Cleveland two to nothing at the end of an inning and a half.
• 1:00:23
  Pirates lead the Reds two to nothing at the end of two and a half.
• 1:00:27
  The only other game's going.
• 1:00:32
  Blaine boring that fastball through. A two and one count to Rico Feticelli.
• 1:00:39
  Rico says his two greatest thrills in life.
• 1:00:43
  He had twin boys here a few weeks ago and ended up being picked for the All-Star team.
• 1:00:54
  Two one pitch.
• 1:00:56
  That one just missed three and one to Feticelli.
• 1:01:05
  Yastremski on third, two down.
• 1:01:18
  Three one delivery.
• 1:01:30
  Tell me that Feticelli's a Brooklyn boy?
• 1:01:33
  Right, he used to go out and he was telling me today, he said, Pee Wee used to be one of my heroes when I was a little boy.
• 1:01:42
  He used to go out and watch you fellas play all the time. He's a Brooklyn boy.
• 1:01:46
  Kurt Pee Wee was one of my heroes when I was a little boy.
• 1:01:50
  Me too. Three two pitch, ball four.
• 1:01:54
  Runners on first and third, two down. Reggie Smith coming up.
• 1:02:03
  The Tigers have one run, two hits. The Red Sox have no runs, two hits.
• 1:02:13
  Smith rounded out his first time, batting 215.
• 1:02:21
  Smith began as a shortstop, went to third base. He has one of the most powerful throwing arms you'll ever want to see.
• 1:02:38
  Ball one. You can get some argument, of course, that's what makes baseball so much fun. You can argue all the time about things.
• 1:02:45
  Red Sox players believe that Smith has the strongest throwing arm of anyone in the American League.
• 1:02:50
  There are the two runners, Yastremski a third, Feticelli a first.
• 1:02:56
  Two down. The plane has walked three so far.
• 1:03:07
  And the plane will be pitching one and nothing to Reggie Smith.
• 1:03:12
  Now it's two and oh.
• 1:03:28
  Two balls, no strikes.
• 1:03:39
  Took a little bit off to him that time, two and one.
• 1:03:43
  Red Sox have lost something. Their last nine losses have been by one run.
• 1:03:49
  Nine one run losses.
• 1:03:53
  Last twelve losses have been by one run. The tenth.
• 1:04:00
  Got to be tenth.
• 1:04:04
  The two-one pitch.
• 1:04:06
  Fly ball to the opposite field.
• 1:04:08
  Lenny Green's waiting for it.
• 1:04:11
  And that's all for the Red Sox in the fourth.
• 1:04:13
  No runs, one hit. There were no errors, two left.
• 1:04:16
  The middle of the fourth inning the score, the Tigers won and the Red Sox nothing.
• 1:04:23
  Whatever you're now driving, even if it's your pride and joy, your spirits will soar when you get one over to Barracuda.
• 1:04:30
  The all-new Clintus Quartz car that's as wild as a European GC.
• 1:04:35
  This Formula S version is a wild one with a Fender 273 cubic inch V8 for an optional 383.
• 1:04:42
  Vinyl pleated snug fitting bucket, console shift, and instruments ready to rally.
• 1:04:50
  An interior that could only have been designed by motion experts.
• 1:04:54
  There's no seeing it without trying it because Barracuda is the sports car you can easily afford.
• 1:05:05
  He's out to win you over this year. Follow your heart, see your Flemish dealer today.
• 1:05:17
  Barracuda, so wild it's created a following all its own.
• 1:05:23
  Tomorrow night the Saint goes to jail in a daring attempt to trap a ring of prison escape artists.
• 1:05:30
  Roger Moore portrays the legendary Simon Templer.
• 1:05:33
  Tomorrow night at 10, 9 central time right here on NBC.
• 1:05:43
  Norm Cash, Jim Northrup, Bill Frihan up for the Tigers in the last of the fourth inning.
• 1:05:48
  Cash fly to center his first time up batting 258.
• 1:06:03
  Right, you know you look at Cash, you wouldn't think so.
• 1:06:05
  He's got a football player.
• 1:06:08
  San Angelo, Texas, junior college.
• 1:06:12
  He was drafted by the Chicago Bears one time. The ground ball out to Mike Andrews.
• 1:06:19
  One down. Cash out, Andrews to Scott. Jim Northrup struck out his first time.
• 1:06:31
  We'll be in Dodger Stadium next Saturday for NBC's Major League Baseball, the Chicago Cubs, and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
• 1:06:41
  Four o'clock Eastern Daylight Time.
• 1:06:47
  Ball in.
• 1:06:56
  Tigers won the Red Sox nothing, last of the fourth.
• 1:07:00
  Sharp ground ball down to Scott.
• 1:07:03
  Flips to stand covering, two down.
• 1:07:07
  And Bill Frihan coming up now, grounded out his first time.
• 1:07:21
  One thing that has helped the Red Sox pitching this year has been their best defensive infield in some time.
• 1:07:28
  That's a solid short. Andrews has stepped in, done a good job with the rookie at second. Scott's fine first baseman, employees very steady at third.
• 1:07:39
  Ball one.
• 1:07:43
  And I believe the next pitch will tell you that infield's pretty important, right Sandy?
• 1:07:47
  Yes it is, Kurt. Those great plays behind you make it a lot easier.
• 1:07:53
  We'll strike to Frihan, one and one to the big Tiger catcher, Mayo Smith.
• 1:08:03
  Looking on a new Tiger manager, brand fellow. Two and one.
• 1:08:13
  Kurt, Phoebe and I were talking, you know, made a comparison between Scott and Hodges.
• 1:08:18
  But we decided that Scott handles the pop flies a little better. Gill used to shake under pop flies.
• 1:08:24
  He'd catch bad hobs and ground balls and he hated those pop flies.
• 1:08:29
  There's the ball, hits sharp with a Joe Foy at third.
• 1:08:33
  And they're down one, two, three. We're rocking right along here. A brilliant pitching duel between McLean and Stang.
• 1:08:39
  So at the end of the fourth inning, the score, the Tigers won and the Red Sox nothing.
• 1:08:45
  Young man. Yes, madam. Is this the one they call the spoiler?
• 1:08:51
  Oh yes, madam. You're absolutely sure? Yes, madam.
• 1:08:55
  With the miracle plastic coating on the edge? Yes, madam.
• 1:09:00
  But it doesn't say the spoiler. Madam, I give you my word.
• 1:09:05
  Thank you. You know, my husband has so much trouble when he shaves. I must tell him about it.
• 1:09:15
  When you drop your razor, it's like dropping your watch.
• 1:09:28
  It gets knocked out of alignment. The blade doesn't sit just right.
• 1:09:33
  You don't know why, but you get nicked.
• 1:09:36
  So if you've ever dropped your razor hard, you may need a new one.
• 1:09:40
  Nothing lasts forever, not even a Gillette razor.
• 1:09:46
  We'll be in Dodger Stadium at the surprising Cubs and the Dodgers play next Saturday.
• 1:09:52
  Ron Sano, Billy Williams, Ernie Banks, the Cubs team, and the ever-lovable Leo DeRosha face the Dodgers.
• 1:10:01
  The folks in Chicago and Los Angeles will see the game between Houston and San Francisco.
• 1:10:06
  It's a late game starting 4 o'clock Eastern Daylight Time, exclusively on NBC.
• 1:10:13
  And moving in now to take over our play-by-play, another NBC exclusive, Mr. Pee Wee Reese.
• 1:10:21
  Thank you, Mr. Gowdy. Mike Ryan's the first hitter batting 234.
• 1:10:25
  It's been all pitching with Dennis McLean giving up two hits and Lee Stang giving up two hits, but the score, the Trot won.
• 1:10:33
  The Red Sox nothing. The ever-lovable Leo DeRosha.
• 1:10:37
  I thought you were going to bring me back and say the ever-lovable Pee Wee Reese.
• 1:10:42
  Curveball. Little high ball, too.
• 1:10:47
  Sandy, I guess Leo may be listening down in Houston today.
• 1:10:51
  If you ever happen to play for him, sometimes you don't think he's too lovable.
• 1:10:56
  Well, the only time I played for him, Pee Wee, was when he was a coach.
• 1:11:00
  I didn't play for the best manager. He was a lovable sort of coach.
• 1:11:08
  Two balls, one strike on Mike Ryan, leading things off with the Red Sox in the top half of the fifth inning.
• 1:11:14
  He'll be followed by the pitcher-based standing. A real good swing, no contact. Two and two.
• 1:11:19
  The last time we were in the Trot, we saw Dennis McLean pitch.
• 1:11:26
  I was thinking then that he may have kept his fast ball and he's breaking stuff down a little bit better then, but he's had real good success.
• 1:11:32
  I think he's been up the ball a bit more today. He's gotten the breaking ball up a lot, but it's been taken.
• 1:11:39
  A lot of times, you see that ball hit, you never get to see if the breaking ball is up or not because it gets hit first.
• 1:11:46
  But Red Sox are taking a lot of high curve balls today.
• 1:11:50
  This fellow sitting behind the plate, Bill Frien, has something to do with what that pitcher throws, I'm sure.
• 1:11:56
  And he did a great job on George Scott a while ago. I've thrown him three straight fast balls. Change up in a dandy.
• 1:12:04
  You could see Mike Ryan was out in front of the off-speed pitch of his fast ball.
• 1:12:11
  Two and two pitch. He's made good use of it today, Peewee. He's gotten quite a few hitters on change ups.
• 1:12:18
  And last time we were here, he didn't throw that many. Maybe one or two during the ball game.
• 1:12:22
  He's probably thrown ten or twelve of them already in the four innings.
• 1:12:26
  May Stang walked his only time up today.
• 1:12:33
  Dennis McLean, his only time up today, the line drive base hit out in the right field.
• 1:12:37
  Pitchers. I like a eagle, but Mr. Stang, a good hitter McLean.
• 1:12:50
  Fast ball right in there. The ball strike one. And this ball game is moving right along.
• 1:12:54
  Remember, next Saturday we'll be out in L.A. for a game between the Cubs and the Dodgers.
• 1:13:02
  The Cubs ran into a little snag lately. They've lost five straight.
• 1:13:08
  Let's hope they bounce back.
• 1:13:13
  One strike on Lee Stang.
• 1:13:18
  In there for a call strike two. And McLean said, I'll not walk to you this time.
• 1:13:26
  It's a uniform of Stang. It's quite a bit of perspiration on it. It's hot.
• 1:13:33
  Humid. Dennis McLean talking about Conigliaro.
• 1:13:40
  Freehand moves outside and the umpire started to come up with that right hand.
• 1:13:45
  Said it was a little bit too high. One ball and two strikes.
• 1:13:48
  Kurt, the Conigliaro singer. Dennis McLean's an organ player, isn't he?
• 1:13:54
  Right. They'd make quite a combo together, wouldn't they, in the offseason?
• 1:13:59
  Did he say he just made a record or something?
• 1:14:04
  A lazy looper out in the right field. Jim North repented. Takes it one-handed.
• 1:14:10
  Tony made some records a couple of years ago. I don't believe he made any last year at all.
• 1:14:14
  But he was cutting records a couple of years ago for a company.
• 1:14:18
  Incidentally, McLean, we understand, is opening a new restaurant here.
• 1:14:22
  And they're going to name it the Upper Deck.
• 1:14:26
  There you go. Oh.
• 1:14:27
  The Upper Deck. And they've been kidding him about all the home runs in the Upper Deck.
• 1:14:31
  He's been giving up here, so that's a good name for the restaurant.
• 1:14:35
  While talking about the home runs, it off with Dennis McLean.
• 1:14:38
  He's in pretty good company with Ramis and Robin Roberts. Both of them fine pitchers.
• 1:14:45
  High fastball will get you in trouble occasionally.
• 1:14:49
  Andrew, the second baseman, takes the first pitch, two low, ball one.
• 1:14:55
  Pittsburgh leads Cincinnati 3-0 after three.
• 1:14:59
  And the American League after two. Washington, Cleveland all tied up 2-2.
• 1:15:03
  Minnesota, Chicago after four, no score.
• 1:15:09
  He hit a ripple at that one. One ball and one strike.
• 1:15:15
  White Sox and the Twins. Those White Sox get some kind of pitching.
• 1:15:24
  They are never out of the ball game.
• 1:15:28
  The White Sox, I'm talking about. Curveball, outside.
• 1:15:35
  Two balls, one strike.
• 1:15:38
  On Andrew.
• 1:15:40
  Used to be a shortstop. Moved in the second base and Dixville Williams said that's the spot.
• 1:15:46
  He looks better there and he did a shortstop.
• 1:15:50
  Ball hit right back through the middle. McAuliffe up with the ball.
• 1:15:53
  Flips the ball over Cash and that's all for Andrews.
• 1:15:55
  And that's all for the Red Sox in the top half of the fifth inning.
• 1:15:58
  No runs, no hits, no errors and no one left on base.
• 1:16:01
  We have the four and a half and he's a play. It's the Tribe. One, the Red Sox, nothing.
• 1:16:08
  13-3-1.
• 1:16:10
  13-3-1.
• 1:16:13
  12-9-8.
• 1:16:15
  Hello. Hi.
• 1:16:17
  Hey Chuck, look at this.
• 1:16:20
  Well hello there, old fellow. I wonder what you want us to do.
• 1:16:24
  Hello, there's a house up there.
• 1:16:26
  Ready for a real smoke?
• 1:16:28
  Have a Camel?
• 1:16:29
  Have a Camel.
• 1:16:30
  Camel's real taste satisfies longer.
• 1:16:33
  Have a real cigarette.
• 1:16:35
  Have a Camel.
• 1:16:38
  Now there's a new Camel cigarette.
• 1:16:41
  New Camel filters with a smooth, easy-growing taste.
• 1:16:45
  Oh, the puppy's gone.
• 1:16:48
  Where'd he go?
• 1:16:49
  Here puppy, here puppy. Let's look outside.
• 1:16:51
  Here, pup.
• 1:16:58
  New Camel filters are here with real taste.
• 1:17:01
  And Camel's real taste satisfies longer.
• 1:17:05
  Taste new Camel filter cigarettes.
• 1:17:10
  Before the game we talked to Mayo Smith and asked him how's the ball club been doing since he lost Al Kalin,
• 1:17:17
  here's what he had to say.
• 1:17:18
  You know, how's your ball club been looking since you lost your star Al Kalin?
• 1:17:22
  Well actually, Pee-Wee, we've won seven and lost two since Al's been out of the lineup.
• 1:17:26
  We were very fortunate in coming up with Jim Landis and also Lenny Green due to the injury to Al and Gates Brown.
• 1:17:41
  The first hitter for the Tigers, Mickey Stanley, the center fielder.
• 1:17:46
  Having a little trouble that bad but he can go get that ball with the best of him.
• 1:17:50
  Lee Stang, first pitch to him is outside, ball one.
• 1:17:53
  For a big fella, he can run.
• 1:18:00
  Has five stolen bases, has not been thrown out.
• 1:18:05
  Batting two seventeen, poor home run.
• 1:18:09
  Ball hit out into right field.
• 1:18:12
  For Nicolai Arrow right there and takes it for out number one.
• 1:18:18
  Not too much action in this ball game, it's been mostly pitching.
• 1:18:21
  And Stang and McLean have taken over.
• 1:18:28
  Euler, the shortstop batting two oh seven.
• 1:18:34
  So this youngster last night, he made two or three some kind of plays.
• 1:18:38
  He can play a lot of shortstop.
• 1:18:42
  Ball hit off the end of his bat, Andrews up with the ball, flips the ball over to Scott.
• 1:18:46
  So it's two up and two down here in the bottom half of the fifth inning.
• 1:18:52
  As the Red Sox whip that ball around the in field.
• 1:18:56
  They have lost three straight.
• 1:19:00
  The Tigers are in second place behind the White Sox.
• 1:19:10
  White Sox forty-three and thirty-one and the Tigers forty-three and thirty-four.
• 1:19:14
  McLean who's got a base hit one for one today.
• 1:19:18
  Takes a look at his third base coach, Tony Cucinello.
• 1:19:23
  Mr. Cucinello said he's going to there. He is old Tony.
• 1:19:26
  He was with Al Lopez for many years.
• 1:19:30
  Every place that Al managed, Tony Cucinello went with him.
• 1:19:33
  Said he's going to play a little golf with Mr. Lopez down in Tampa during the All-Star break.
• 1:19:39
  Take a little bet on Mr. Lopez.
• 1:19:43
  A little grounder out to Andrews. The ball bounces up on him.
• 1:19:46
  He comes up with it over to George Scott.
• 1:19:48
  That's all for McLean and that's all for the Tigers here in the bottom half of the fifth inning.
• 1:19:52
  No runs, no hits, no errors and no one left on base.
• 1:19:55
  The score after five completed in Detroit one, Boston nothing.
• 1:19:59
  Under normal driving conditions, many motor oils will do a good job of protecting your engine.

  But in cold weather, some oils thicken and clog.
• 1:20:10
  Some grow thin at high temperatures.
• 1:20:13
  Some break up at high speeds.
• 1:20:16
  Or even stop and grow trashy.
• 1:20:18
  But there is one motor oil that never loses its ability to protect your engine.

• 1:21:02
  Let's pause now for station identification.
• 1:21:07
  Sunday nights too, it's let's make a deal at 8.30, 7.30 Central Time.
• 1:21:14
  1964, and Bill Curtis tried Ballantine beer.
• 1:21:17
  I like it, but mine tastes better.
• 1:21:19
  1967, and Bill tries Ballantine again.
• 1:21:22
  Hey, that's great beer. What did they do?
• 1:21:24
  We improved it. Ballantine is so good, it's now a premium beer.
• 1:21:29
  And it says so right on the label. Try it.
• 1:21:43
  Kim Novak and Frederick March meet in the middle of the night tonight at 1115 here on Channel 6.
• 1:21:50
  Will be the first hitter.
• 1:21:53
  Batting 230 has 12 home runs.
• 1:21:56
  Hit 321 during the month of June.
• 1:22:00
  As you can also see there, the Red Sox have not shown too much of that power today.
• 1:22:10
  Of course, neither have the Tigers.
• 1:22:13
  And sometime the pitching has something to do with it.
• 1:22:20
  Gertrude has some scores.
• 1:22:22
  Later score over in Chicago, Peewee, the twins in the White Sox, no score at the end of 5.
• 1:22:27
  Merritt against Tommy John. They're in the sixth inning now at Comiskey Park.
• 1:22:31
  Alrighty. Joe Foy will be followed by Carl Yostrinsky.
• 1:22:36
  The high fly out in the center field should be no trouble for Mickey Stanley.
• 1:22:41
  And takes it for out number one.
• 1:22:44
  As both clubs are jumping on that first pitch.
• 1:22:51
  Yostrinsky wants to have the umpire to take a look at the ball.
• 1:22:57
  As Mr. Ballentine does.
• 1:23:02
  Mickey Stanley out in center field.
• 1:23:05
  Had a busy day. He's at five foot outs.
• 1:23:07
  Yostrinsky batting 314.
• 1:23:10
  He lined a double in right center his last time up.
• 1:23:13
  But failed to score.
• 1:23:17
  You can see this is kind of a close stance. You'll get those hands high in the air.
• 1:23:21
  Comes down on the pitch.
• 1:23:25
  Fastball in there for Carl Strachan.
• 1:23:33
  Yostrinsky doubled his last time up. He lined in a double play.
• 1:23:38
  His first time up so he's one for two.
• 1:23:43
  Take a good look at this fella.
• 1:23:46
  Not a bad hitter.
• 1:23:49
  He takes one of the hardest cuts in baseball.
• 1:23:52
  Comes around and hits him in the small of the bat.
• 1:23:56
  But he really takes a vicious cut. Always has.
• 1:23:59
  Won a batting title his first year in the Carolina League.
• 1:24:02
  Lost a batting title the next year in the AAA American Association as one American League batting title.
• 1:24:08
  He's always up there in each league fighting for the batting chance.
• 1:24:12
  Little tamper. That pitcher will have to get over there.
• 1:24:14
  Cash flips the ball to McLean covering and that's all for Carl Yostrinsky.
• 1:24:19
  Every time I see Yostrinsky, for some reason or another, he reminds me of Ted Williams.
• 1:24:27
  He used to wear his hat cocked a little bit like Ted always did.
• 1:24:31
  Swing a little bit like him.
• 1:24:37
  Worse when you start comparing someone to Ted Williams when they actually swing at bat.
• 1:24:43
  Not too much of a comparison.
• 1:24:47
  Even though Yostrinsky is a real fine hitter.
• 1:24:52
  Speaking of good hitters, there's a pretty good hitter right here. Tony Conigliaro.
• 1:25:00
  And I wouldn't say that name too often, do we?
• 1:25:04
  And a tough. I'll call him Tony C.
• 1:25:08
  Conigliaro, Yostrinsky, Ettracelli.
• 1:25:15
  Get Reggie Smith up there after a while.
• 1:25:22
  Tony crowds that plate.
• 1:25:25
  See what freehand does here.
• 1:25:28
  Keep that target low a little bit out in front of that good change up at McLean.
• 1:25:32
  It's two away, two strikes on Conigliaro.
• 1:25:37
  We're in the top half of the sixth inning here at Tiger Stadium in Detroit.
• 1:25:42
  And the Tigers scored one in the bottom half of the third inning.
• 1:25:46
  Boston has failed to score.
• 1:25:50
  A wide stance by Tony.
• 1:25:56
  And he crowds the plate.
• 1:26:01
  Kerrball outside. One ball and two strikes.
• 1:26:08
  It's a younger brother that's a pretty good ball player.
• 1:26:10
  Right his brother Billy's in the service now, but he's also a coming star.
• 1:26:20
  The fastball foul straight back. One and two is the count.
• 1:26:28
  Pittsburgh now leads Cincinnati five another.
• 1:26:34
  They came up with two in the fourth.
• 1:26:42
  The one and two pitch.
• 1:26:46
  What happens to change up when it gets a little high like that, Sandy?
• 1:26:50
  What's the pitcher do?
• 1:26:51
  I think a lot of times Billy you didn't really want to throw it.
• 1:26:55
  You get it that bad you almost think I'm afraid to throw it here and you never even get it close to the plate.
• 1:27:01
  It's the safest way to throw it probably.
• 1:27:07
  The ball hits pretty hard out in the right center.
• 1:27:09
  Northup goes over. He calls for the ball and takes it.
• 1:27:12
  Way out there. That's all for Penegriero and that's all for the Red Sox here in the top half of the sixth inning.
• 1:27:18
  No runs, no hits, no errors and no one left on base.
• 1:27:21
  And the score after five and a half innings of play, Detroit one, Boston nothing.
• 1:27:28
  Some people when they like a car never want to part with it until something like fury comes along.
• 1:27:35
  And fury comes a long, long way to win you over.
• 1:27:45
  Instrument illumination.
• 1:27:47
  A handsome luxury interior.
• 1:27:50
  The most powerful standard V8 in the low price field.
• 1:28:01
  A long fine car look that isn't just a stretch of the imagination.
• 1:28:07
  Plymouth is out to win you over this year.
• 1:28:12
  Follow your heart see your Plymouth dealer today.
• 1:28:20
  Fury, the most irresistible Plymouth of all time.
• 1:28:27
  Advantage tomorrow afternoon, Sportsman Holiday goes salmon fishing in the remote corner of Canada.
• 1:28:34
  Join us for Sportsman Holiday tomorrow and every Sunday at 5.30, 4.30 Central Time on most of these NB stations.
• 1:28:42
  Who do you think is going to be the host? The old sportsman himself, the old fly fisherman, Kurt Gotti.
• 1:28:51
  What kind of a show is this Kurt? Pretty good?
• 1:28:53
  Good show.
• 1:28:55
  I'm sure it is.
• 1:28:57
  Lenny Green who used to be with the Red Sox.
• 1:29:01
  Doing a real fine job as you heard Mayo Smith say.
• 1:29:06
  The best thing he did was to bring up Lenny Green and get Jim Lannis and now K-line got hurt.
• 1:29:12
  Great job of this fellow.
• 1:29:16
  One ball and one strike on Lenny.
• 1:29:23
  Batting 381.
• 1:29:29
  Hits the ball to all fields.
• 1:29:32
  That pitch was too low.
• 1:29:41
  Two hits by the Tigers and two hits for the Red Sox.
• 1:29:45
  One run for the Detroit.
• 1:29:48
  Not any by the Red Sox. There's a ball hit out into the right field, the right fielder.
• 1:29:54
  The Panigliero cannot come up with it.
• 1:30:00
  Look out, he's going to be batting a thousand.
• 1:30:06
  Pretty hard to do I guess.
• 1:30:11
  Jerry Lumpy.
• 1:30:14
  You'll notice now the Tigers throw five left-handed batters at Stang.
• 1:30:22
  Lumpy chokes up on that bat.
• 1:30:25
  Batting second. They may move this runner.
• 1:30:30
  There he goes. Ball hit on the left field. This ball could be foul.
• 1:30:39
  Lenny Green and he was on his way.
• 1:30:44
  As Mayo Smith had the hit and run on.
• 1:30:49
  That's what you have to do sometime when you lose a fellow like Al K-line and Willie Hartman, Gates Brown.
• 1:30:54
  You've got to hit and run and steal a little bit.
• 1:30:57
  You lose your power, B-Wheel, you've got to try something to score some runs.
• 1:31:04
  Squeeze a little bit.
• 1:31:07
  Runner at first base, that's Lenny Green, the hitter.
• 1:31:13
  Jerry Lumpy swings right to a fastball.
• 1:31:19
  Got a left-handed pitcher warming up.
• 1:31:23
  His name is Lyle.
• 1:31:29
  A good shot right there. You get a chance to see the base runner and the hitter.
• 1:31:38
  Very seldom see him send a runner with two strikes on a hitter.
• 1:31:43
  No one out. Sometimes he'll do it with two men out.
• 1:31:47
  They throw him out, you just have your hitter come leading things off the next inning.
• 1:31:53
  Fastball outside. One ball and two strikes on Jerry Lumpy.
• 1:31:56
  As he checks with the coach, Cuchinela at third base.
• 1:32:06
  Fowler first came up with the Yankees with Kansas City.
• 1:32:12
  Bouncer, and there goes Lenny Green.
• 1:32:16
  Foul ball.
• 1:32:19
  Come on back, Lenny.
• 1:32:24
  One ball, two strikes on Jerry Lumpy.
• 1:32:26
  The Tigers lead this ballgame by a score of 1-0.
• 1:32:30
  Denny McLean against Lee Stang.
• 1:32:40
  There's the young left-hander, Lyle, and he throws pretty hard.
• 1:32:53
  Fastball outside. Two and two.
• 1:33:03
  Lyle, they call him Sparky.
• 1:33:10
  Two and two is a count on Jerry Lumpy.
• 1:33:14
  Watch the base runner.
• 1:33:17
  He didn't go. It's too low. Green and two.
• 1:33:23
  Well, as we've often said, a fellow batting in that second position, he's supposed to be able to handle that bat and get a piece of the ball.
• 1:33:32
  So, if we count three and two, no one away.
• 1:33:35
  I'm sure that they'll send Lenny Green.
• 1:33:48
  That was not his good move. He may come back with a better one on this one.
• 1:33:55
  Gets no one away when the bottom half is six inning.
• 1:33:59
  There goes the runner.
• 1:34:01
  Lazy looper, boy, in foul territory takes it.
• 1:34:06
  Back to first base, Lenny Green.
• 1:34:10
  Have a real nice crowd here today and a lot of youngsters.
• 1:34:17
  The hitter is Dick McCollum.
• 1:34:20
  Always like to walk in a ballpark and
• 1:34:26
  see those young bands.
• 1:34:40
  Dick McCollum.
• 1:34:45
  Takes the first pitch. It's outside ball one. Let's see what he's done today. He's 0 for 2.
• 1:34:52
  Batting 250.
• 1:34:56
  He has 15 home runs.
• 1:35:04
  Going outside ball two.
• 1:35:07
  On at first base.
• 1:35:11
  Lenny Green.
• 1:35:14
  Let's pick George Scott, hold him on.
• 1:35:35
  You can see Dick McCollum did not like that call.
• 1:35:42
  He did a few words.
• 1:35:46
  Mr. Valentine behind home plate.
• 1:35:51
  You can't win, Dick.
• 1:35:56
  All he can do is get an early shower.
• 1:36:00
  Mayo is coming out now. Of course he's not protesting the strike because if you do, you're out of the ball game.
• 1:36:09
  He's out there to protect McAllby. He didn't want to see him going out of the ball game.
• 1:36:18
  There's the super scout.
• 1:36:21
  Mr. Mayo Smith.
• 1:36:23
  That's what he was called his title when he worked for the last five or six years with the Yankees. A real fine person.
• 1:36:29
  Down in Florida.
• 1:36:35
  He goes from inside to outside.
• 1:36:39
  I imagine McAll of right now is thinking that plate must be about 30 inches wide.
• 1:36:49
  Just got the black.
• 1:36:53
  Sometimes when you look at the curveball on the outside, you go out for it and you throw that fastball inside.
• 1:37:00
  Hard to stay on it.
• 1:37:06
  Good pitch right there.
• 1:37:08
  McStang wanted that one, Peewee. I think if they called McCollough out, we might have lost McCollough for the day.
• 1:37:19
  Three and two. One away. Lenny Green on it first base.
• 1:37:24
  I imagine he'll be running.
• 1:37:27
  Flip over there to Stang.
• 1:37:32
  The score one to nothing. Detroit over Boston. We're in the bottom half, the sixth inning in Detroit.
• 1:37:40
  There goes the runner.
• 1:37:43
  Pitch was a little outside. Lenny Green moved down to second.
• 1:37:48
  That's the first walk.
• 1:37:50
  Giving up a lead, Stang, and as Kurt told you, this fellow doesn't walk too many man. Average is about two men.
• 1:37:57
  That's very good.
• 1:38:01
  Here comes my old friend coming out of the dugout.
• 1:38:06
  Sal Magley, pitching coach for the Red Sox.
• 1:38:11
  The barber.
• 1:38:14
  He wasn't your friend when he was with the Giants.
• 1:38:17
  Oh, I'm telling you, I used to hate this man.
• 1:38:22
  I'm talking to Sal about it this morning, Peewee, about coming from the Giants where he and the Dodgers sort of had a running gun battle for years and all of a sudden coming over to pitch for the Dodgers.
• 1:38:34
  And I guess he and Carl Perillo became the best friends after years of hating each other.
• 1:38:41
  Wow, wow, there's a break in the action here at the Tigers today. And the score, Detroit 1, Boston nothing.
• 1:38:48
  For Keeley.
• 1:38:52
  That's the boy. 14. He's going to have all the advantages I never had.
• 1:38:58
  See that? Peach fuzz already.
• 1:39:01
  See this? The Gillette Hoosers.
• 1:39:04
  A light pressureless shave.
• 1:39:06
  Best chance of a nick. No blades to mess around with. All the advantages.
• 1:39:12
  Then I got to thinking, why shouldn't I have all the advantages I never had?
• 1:39:17
  So?
• 1:39:23
  Are they dangerous warden?
• 1:39:25
  Hardened criminals, everyone.
• 1:39:27
  That one there doesn't look the type.
• 1:39:29
  Worse than the lots.
• 1:39:30
  What did he do?
• 1:39:31
  Stashed away the family's right guard.
• 1:39:33
  Tried to keep it all to himself. Left his whole family defenseless.
• 1:39:39
  Beast!
• 1:39:41
  Gillette right guard. The perfect personal family deodorant.
• 1:39:45
  Because nothing touches you but the spray itself.
• 1:39:48
  Don't leave your family defenseless. Keep an extra right guard on hand.
• 1:39:56
  The new pitcher.
• 1:39:58
  Saw him warming up down there a while ago. Al Sparky Lowe.
• 1:40:02
  He was 2-2 at Toronto.
• 1:40:05
  He's a relief specialist from Reynoldsville, Pennsylvania.
• 1:40:12
  Been two games here such as been in Detroit.
• 1:40:17
  I haven't scored off him.
• 1:40:19
  Sandy, how does he throw?
• 1:40:21
  Left-handed, Pee-wee.
• 1:40:23
  Thank you very much. What are you trying to tell me? You haven't seen him pitch?
• 1:40:27
  No, I haven't, Pee-wee. But if he's a relief specialist, I'd have to bet that he throws a sinking fastball.
• 1:40:33
  Probably has a pretty good breaking ball slider.
• 1:40:36
  Most of your relief pitchers are guys that can make the opposing players hit the ball on the ground.
• 1:40:44
  Yes, sir. The great relief pitchers always keep that ball down, it seems like.
• 1:40:49
  They usually have a sinker. Kurt, you have some other scorers.
• 1:40:51
  Minnesota, Chicago, no score at the end of 6. Merritt against John.
• 1:40:55
  Cleveland, 3. Washington, 2. Into 3. T on for the Indians. Pretty relieved Coleman in the second.
• 1:41:00
  Tony Horton, homeward in the third, nobody on for the Indians.
• 1:41:03
  New York to Baltimore, twine-nighter tonight.
• 1:41:06
  Doubleheader Kansas City to California.
• 1:41:09
  The Pirates lead Cincinnati 5-0 into 4-1-1-2.
• 1:41:12
  The only other game going right now in the national.
• 1:41:16
  The first pitch to Norm Cash, the breaking bit.
• 1:41:21
  A wild swing at it. Last night.
• 1:41:30
  What is that pitcher's name? Wasilewski?
• 1:41:33
  Pitching for the Red Sox.
• 1:41:35
  They had Norm Cash up there.
• 1:41:39
  Nick Williams had a left hander warming up down there.
• 1:41:42
  I know he thought about bringing him in.
• 1:41:45
  Had a little trouble and Cash hit one nine miles out in the right field.
• 1:41:50
  For the day, Mr. Williams bringing that left hander in to pitch to Cash and he struck him out.
• 1:41:56
  Runners on first and second down at second base, Lenny Green.
• 1:42:00
  Over at first base, Dick McCallum.
• 1:42:09
  Another left hander, Jim Nothra.
• 1:42:13
  Batting 274.
• 1:42:16
  We have a right hander warming up. It's Brandon.
• 1:42:22
  May see him come in the next inning to pitch the bottom half that line up who's all right handed.
• 1:42:28
  Say one thing, this wow looks pretty good.
• 1:42:32
  There's Brandon.
• 1:42:48
  One ball and one strike. Lenny Green at second base.
• 1:42:51
  At first base, Dick McCallum.
• 1:42:54
  One to nothing.
• 1:42:57
  Troy over Boston.
• 1:43:12
  Lee Stang goes five and one third inning.
• 1:43:20
  Giving up one run so far because the two base runners belong to him.
• 1:43:26
  Pitched a fine ball game, Stang did.
• 1:43:34
  Kurt, tell us something about that All-Star game.
• 1:43:36
  Starts out in Anaheim.
• 1:43:38
  Well, we're going to be underway with it at four o'clock Eastern Daylight Time.
• 1:43:43
  This will be the first time the All-Star game that have been televised into nighttime television.
• 1:43:49
  In the East especially.
• 1:43:52
  A little pop-up. Boy at third base should have it.
• 1:43:56
  He's over near the stands and takes it for out number three.
• 1:43:59
  So Lyle does a fine job for the Red Sox here.
• 1:44:02
  The bottom half is sixth inning.
• 1:44:04
  They came up with no runs, one hit, no errors, and two men left on base.
• 1:44:08
  So the score is the sixth full inning.
• 1:44:10
  Detroit won Boston nothing.
• 1:44:14
  Is there a special day to try Salem filter cigarettes?
• 1:44:26
  Sure there is.

  Salem refreshes your taste.
• 1:45:17
  Fans, next Saturday we'll be traveling to the Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles
• 1:45:20
  for the game between the surprising Chicago Cubs and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
• 1:45:24
  We'll see Ron Santo and all the rest of the exciting Cubs team
• 1:45:28
  and watch Leo Drosser face his old team.
• 1:45:31
  That's next Saturday, 4 o'clock Eastern time, 3 o'clock Central time, in color, exclusively on NBC.
• 1:45:38
  Kurt, come on in here.
• 1:45:41
  And your Scott hits a ground ball to Euler in a hole, a long throw and he's got him.
• 1:45:46
  That's the play of the ball game so far.
• 1:45:50
  That's the play that shortstop has to make.
• 1:45:52
  Deep in the hole, the long throw from the grass, and still get your man and Euler get it.
• 1:45:58
  That's what the Scouts look for for a young shortstop, don't they Peewee?
• 1:46:02
  Yes sir, Kurt, and they can't say enough of this Euler.
• 1:46:06
  We saw him, you and I did last night, make three fine plays out here
• 1:46:10
  and you can just see what he did right there.
• 1:46:12
  A great play, one of the toughest plays far shortstop in the hole and gets up on that ball.
• 1:46:17
  Pat Bricelli's up now, he's lying is short and he's walked and he takes ball one.
• 1:46:22
  Pat Bricelli batting 298.
• 1:46:25
  The Tigers have one run, three hits, no errors.
• 1:46:28
  The Red Sox have no runs, two hits, one error.
• 1:46:32
  A lone run of this game is an unearned run.
• 1:46:34
  He pops it up, a major leak pop up to the left side.
• 1:46:39
  Waiting for this one to come down is Euler, and that fooled him just a bit.
• 1:46:44
  Slight breeze blowing, looking up at that high sky, two downs.
• 1:46:49
  That one nearly brought rain clouds.
• 1:46:54
  Reggie Smith is grounded out and flied out.
• 1:47:08
  We have 30,000 here this Saturday afternoon,
• 1:47:11
  combined paid and youngsters at Tiger Stadium.
• 1:47:15
  One strike to Reggie Smith.
• 1:47:24
  Four, seven, nine in a row now have gone down before Dennis McLean.
• 1:47:29
  The last man to reach base was Pat Bricelli who walked in the fourth.
• 1:47:33
  Now one strike pitch.
• 1:47:35
  There's a line shot to the left center that's in the gap.
• 1:47:38
  Should be for extra bases. Smith can fly, he may go for three here.
• 1:47:43
  He's holding his second, nearly made an overturn.
• 1:47:52
  Going out to meet the relay in was the shortstop Roy Euler.
• 1:47:57
  It was a double for Smith with two down.
• 1:48:02
  And they're calling Mike Ryan back, and they're going to hit for him.
• 1:48:07
  I believe it will be Jose Tardable, a left-handed batter.
• 1:48:13
  Red Sox now have a tying run of second two down.
• 1:48:20
  Tardable went to the bat rack.
• 1:48:28
  He's batting 252, and he's coming out to hit for the catcher Ryan.
• 1:48:40
  The Red Sox have had three hits, single by Andrews, double by Yastremski,
• 1:48:45
  a double by Reggie Smith.
• 1:48:48
  The Tigers have had three singles.
• 1:48:50
  Lenny Green has two of them, and McLean the pitcher.
• 1:48:54
  So from two to eight in that batting order, the Tigers haven't had a hit.
• 1:49:01
  Occurred a lot of times where you put a pinch hitter in like they would
• 1:49:05
  a tying run on a second base.
• 1:49:08
  It's late in the ball game, it's the seventh inning.
• 1:49:12
  Say we may put him on, but you know that Dick Williams,
• 1:49:16
  if you put Tardable on at first base, you know you're going to bring up a pinch hitter for
• 1:49:20
  Al Sparky Low.
• 1:49:22
  So I'm sure that they'll pitch to Tardable.
• 1:49:28
  The best left-handed pinch hitter, Peewee, the Red Sox have is in the service right now.
• 1:49:34
  Dalton Jones putting in a two-week hit.
• 1:49:39
  Have Jerry Adair available, but they're short on left-handers.
• 1:49:44
  You know, you almost need a scorecard anymore to keep track of these ball clubs
• 1:49:47
  with this two-week service.
• 1:49:49
  If every club has two or three fellows going in and coming out,
• 1:49:54
  Houston at one time had five of them coming in and going out.
• 1:50:00
  Runner on second, two down.
• 1:50:03
  Jose Tardable batting, makes the strike here.
• 1:50:07
  A tight ball game, one to nothing.
• 1:50:10
  Tigers grab the lead in the third.
• 1:50:24
  Last night they were leading four to one going to the ninth,
• 1:50:27
  and the Red Sox tied the game in the ninth and sent it into extra inning.
• 1:50:38
  Here's the one-strike delivery.
• 1:50:40
  It's strike two to the Jose Tardable.
• 1:50:44
  The Tigers and the Red Sox have played eight games this year, and they split four and four.
• 1:50:55
  And since these two teams started playing each other in 1901,
• 1:51:02
  they're all even, and each won 709 games against the other one.
• 1:51:08
  This one will break the tie.
• 1:51:10
  The two-strike pitch, changeup, bowels it off.
• 1:51:17
  Tardable can really fly.
• 1:51:20
  There's Smith, the second two down.
• 1:51:22
  He hits a slow bounder to the infield.
• 1:51:24
  He's very difficult to throw out.
• 1:51:27
  One of the fastest men in the majors.
• 1:51:33
  Oh, and two.
• 1:51:35
  The Jose Tardable.
• 1:51:42
  Reggie Smith, the second two down.
• 1:51:47
  One ball, two strikes now.
• 1:51:50
  Sparky Lyle, the pitcher's on deck,
• 1:51:52
  and they have Darrell Brandon warming up in the Red Sox bullpen.
• 1:52:08
  One ball, two strikes.
• 1:52:11
  Changeup, hit on the ground.
• 1:52:14
  McCollough, the cash, and they're out of the game.
• 1:52:17
  No runs for the Red Sox in the second.
• 1:52:19
  One hit, there was no air, there was one man left.
• 1:52:22
  The middle of the seventh inning to score is the Tigers 1 and the Red Sox nothing.
• 1:52:38
  They would stretch from Greenwich Village
• 1:52:42
  up Fifth Avenue
• 1:52:45
  through the Lincoln Tunnel
• 1:52:48
  along the Connecticut Turnpike
• 1:52:52
  across the streams of Vermont
• 1:52:55
  through the woods of New Hampshire
• 1:53:00
  and up the rocky coast of Maine.
• 1:53:04
  In fact, if all the beer drinkers who bought Peel's Real Draft last year were lined up,
• 1:53:09
  they would stretch from New York to Labrador.
• 1:53:12
  We call this the greatest single success in beer history.
• 1:53:16
  We could shout about Peel's Real Draft, we could brag about its flavor,
• 1:53:20
  but we feel 1,314,630 new customers is the best advertisement of all time.
• 1:53:28
  Come on, buddy, join the line!
• 1:53:35
  There's the...
• 1:53:39
  interclub history, it shows you how close these two clubs are.
• 1:53:43
  That was going into this season,
• 1:53:45
  and they've each won four against each other this year.
• 1:53:49
  That's about as dead even as two teams can get from 19-1 into the 1967 season.
• 1:53:57
  Well, here we go now, fans, to the last of the seventh,
• 1:54:01
  the home half of the seventh in Tiger Stadium.
• 1:54:04
  Bill Freehand, Mickey Stanley, Ray Euler coming up.
• 1:54:08
  We have a new catcher in for the Red Sox, Russ Gibson.
• 1:54:16
  Sparky Lyle is pitching.
• 1:54:19
  Bill Freehand has grounded out twice, 0-2, adding 277.
• 1:54:30
  Paul Freehand won the ballgame last night, a line drive hit off the left field wall
• 1:54:35
  that dropped dead at the base of the wall, scored the winning run from first base.
• 1:54:44
  One ball, no strike.
• 1:54:51
  Doing nothing.
• 1:54:55
  Hope these clubs will be well represented in the all-star game.
• 1:55:01
  The Red Sox will have four players.
• 1:55:05
  The White Sox will have four players.
• 1:55:07
  The Minnesota Twins, four players.
• 1:55:09
  Brown ball in the hole, scooped up by Joe Boyd.
• 1:55:13
  Nice play, and there's one down.
• 1:55:18
  Mickey Stanley coming up.
• 1:55:20
  Bowled out and fly it up.
• 1:55:22
  The Tigers will have three.
• 1:55:24
  They have three voted.
• 1:55:26
  K-line has been replaced.
• 1:55:28
  The
• 1:55:31
  American League is Frank Robinson is now out of the game.
• 1:55:36
  He's still suffering double vision after having a slight concussion, and Robinson will not play.
• 1:55:42
  Baltimore stars, strike one.
• 1:55:45
  So the starting outfield will now be Dostremsky, Oliva, and Canigliaro.
• 1:55:51
  And I would imagine a man who managed the ball club for Hank Bauer, but he may have to put Dostremsky
• 1:55:57
  in center field because I don't believe Canigliaro will leave a plate center.
• 1:56:02
  Bow ball, 0-2.
• 1:56:05
  So they'll be in the starting lineup without a really natural, regular center fielder.
• 1:56:14
  The American League had four of their pitchers pitch last night in the all-star squad.
• 1:56:21
  Downing, Peters, Chance, and McLaughlin.
• 1:56:23
  They'll be well rested for those boys.
• 1:56:26
  The National League had none of their all-star starters
• 1:56:32
  work last night.
• 1:56:34
  Boy handling the chopper, two down.
• 1:56:39
  Ray Euler coming up.
• 1:56:41
  Marichal is pitching today against Rysdale.
• 1:56:52
  That'll be quite a spectacle.
• 1:56:54
  We're really looking forward to it.
• 1:56:57
  Dewey, Sandy, and I will be out there covering the game for NBC Tuesday, 7 o'clock Eastern Daylight Time.
• 1:57:04
  We'll be joined by Buddy Black, the Angels broadcaster.
• 1:57:11
  Strike one, understand that Gene Autry, the owner of the club,
• 1:57:19
  President Bob Reynolds, General Manager Fred Haney.
• 1:57:24
  They've gone through a lot of preparation.
• 1:57:28
  They're going to play an outstanding host role for all the press and radio and the fans.
• 1:57:35
  It's a beautiful ballpark, by the way.
• 1:57:37
  If you've never seen it in person or on TV, I know you'll be delighted to see it when we telecast Tuesday.
• 1:57:45
  A 1-1 pitch. All off, 1 and 2. Our score here, the Tigers are leading the Red Sox, 1 to nothing, last to the 7.
• 1:58:03
  The way the Angels have been winning, the fans should be in a happy frame of mind out there, too.
• 1:58:09
  They'll go out there Tuesday.
• 1:58:16
  One ball, two strikes.
• 1:58:20
  They went after that bad fastball way outside.
• 1:58:23
  Sparky Lyle blew them down on the 7.
• 1:58:26
  Free up, free down. The end of the seventh inning here in Detroit to score.
• 1:58:30
  The Tigers 1 and the Red Sox nothing.
• 1:58:40
  On the prowl, the wild new 67 Plymouth Barracudas are here.
• 1:58:48
  Looking. Looking for the car that thinks it can take their measure.
• 1:58:59
  But there are no takers.
• 1:59:05
  The 67 Barracuda Hardtop, America's lowest-priced sports car.
• 1:59:14
  The 67 Sports Barracuda, the one that gives you all the excitement of a European road race.
• 1:59:20
  Take a 67 Barracuda for a test drive. You won't be disappointed.
• 1:59:25
  Plymouth is out to win you over this year.
• 1:59:30
  Follow your heart, see your Plymouth dealer today.
• 1:59:41
  We pause now for station identification.
• 1:59:48
  Help keep the last of the great beers great. Never use for medicinal purposes.
• 1:59:55
  Do not serve at room temperature.
• 1:59:59
  With one exception.
• 2:00:01
  And above all, don't try to improve it.
• 2:00:12
  The thoroughbred racing and beautiful surroundings. That's the Green Mountain story Monday through Saturday at 745 Green Mountain, Tonal, Vermont.
• 2:00:22
  This is WRGB Channel 6 Connected-E, first in the Capital District.
• 2:00:28
  Did you ever invite the guests to a wedding and then have to cancel the wedding?
• 2:00:33
  This is what this boy did that is coming up to pinch it for the Red Sox. His name is Ken Poulsen.
• 2:00:39
  And just a couple of weeks ago he was playing for Winston-Salem in the Carolina League.
• 2:00:44
  And he and his fiancee had the wedding date set. They invited about three dozen guests.
• 2:00:49
  And the day before the wedding the Red Sox said, you're in the big leagues son.
• 2:00:53
  So they canceled the wedding for a while and he came up to join the Red Sox. All won.
• 2:00:58
  And his bride said, we can get married any day but my guy can't go to the big leagues any day.
• 2:01:06
  So they put it off for a little while. And here he is, Ken Poulsen, who's hitting for the pitcher right now, Sparky Lyle.
• 2:01:16
  Ball two.
• 2:01:17
  Sounds to me like she's going to make him a good wife.
• 2:01:20
  Yes sir, a good baseball wife and they have to be very understanding.
• 2:01:24
  You better believe it.
• 2:01:28
  Two balls and no strikes.
• 2:01:33
  A strike. He's only 20 years old.
• 2:01:39
  Well, you know, you talk to minor league managers who manage these youngsters and class D ball down below 18, 19, and 20.
• 2:01:53
  Two balls, one strike. Nobody on, nobody out. Eighth inning.
• 2:01:58
  Two and two. And they say, one of the toughest jobs there is when you have to call a young fellow in with a new wife,
• 2:02:07
  or they have a little baby and tell them that they've been sent, they're being sent down and sent out.
• 2:02:15
  It's a tough job, a young married couple of the minors.
• 2:02:20
  And a wife has to be very understanding. Two-two. Bow back.
• 2:02:34
  These baseball wives deserve a lot of credit. They have to maintain two homes when they play.
• 2:02:40
  Usually they're a regular home.
• 2:02:43
  Then they come to the Major League City where their husband's playing, bring the family.
• 2:02:47
  All is foul.
• 2:02:56
  Your wife used to work to keep your home in Louisville, and you come up to Brooklyn.
• 2:03:00
  That's right, Kurt. I was just sitting here listening to you, and you were bringing out some good points,
• 2:03:04
  but I was thinking that I guess you have to be an understanding wife whatever business you're in.
• 2:03:10
  It is a little tough, though. You're making your children in school.
• 2:03:15
  You're putting them in school and taking them out and putting them in here and bringing them out.
• 2:03:21
  They do two-fit. There's a fly ball in the center field.
• 2:03:25
  Broken bat coming on is Ron Northrup, and it's one down.
• 2:03:34
  Top of the order now, Mike Andrews for the Red Sox. Single fly it out and ground it out.
• 2:03:41
  The Tigers are ahead one to nothing in the eighth inning.
• 2:03:44
  The Tigers have one run, three hits, and no errors.
• 2:03:47
  The Red Sox have no runs, three hits, and one error.
• 2:03:55
  Benny McLean has gone all the way. There's Bucky Brandon, and that number 27 is his age.
• 2:04:00
  He's 27 years old today.
• 2:04:06
  He'll be coming on the pitch in the last of the eighth inning.
• 2:04:13
  Mike Andrews pops it up to the left side, calling forward to Euler the shortstop.
• 2:04:21
  Two down.
• 2:04:28
  Boy has walked fly to center field twice. He's 0 for 2.
• 2:04:43
  Playing with a record of nine wins, nine losses.
• 2:04:46
  His last time out was a complete game, beating the Indians 2-1.
• 2:04:54
  He's just three hits in that game.
• 2:05:01
  Slow ball to boys, ball one.
• 2:05:07
  Now the plane's getting into the big boys in that Red Sox lineup.
• 2:05:14
  Boy, you're a sprint, keep the nickel, you're a arrow, start and bet the celly.
• 2:05:19
  Another slow one, ball two, 2-0.
• 2:05:33
  Two away, base is empty.
• 2:05:39
  Fly ball to right field, fairly deep, and Northrop has room as he backpedals to the edge of the warning crack.
• 2:05:46
  He's in the eighth inning.
• 2:05:49
  The up three down for the Red Sox. In the middle of the eighth, the score that is for Tigers 1, the Boston Red Sox nothing.
• 2:06:15
  Gillette packs an avalanche of smooth shaving comfort in you Gillette foamy.
• 2:06:21
  Nobody makes a lather like foamy, so moist, so rich, so creamy.
• 2:06:27
  Nobody makes a lather like Gillette.
• 2:06:32
  What happens when a little water meets a little heads up hair grow?
• 2:06:42
  Love.
• 2:06:45
  Heads up mixes with water.
• 2:06:48
  You get water's clean look with the staying power of hairdressing.
• 2:06:53
  And you just add water to comb it again.
• 2:06:58
  Isn't love wonderful?
• 2:07:03
  Bucky Brandon is making his 18th appearance of the year for the Red Sox.
• 2:07:08
  In the second two lost seven and earned an average of 4.16.
• 2:07:14
  In the last of the eighth inning you'll face the Tiger pitcher Dennis McLean and then Lenny Green and Jerry Lumpy at the top of the order.
• 2:07:21
  And the hand you hear in the background is for McLean who has fired a three hit shutout so far today.
• 2:07:28
  In other games, Minnesota and the White Sox.
• 2:07:34
  Seven, no score. That's the big one.
• 2:07:49
  The top four clubs in the league are meeting here in the weekend.
• 2:07:52
  The Twins and White Sox in Chicago, the Tigers and the Red Sox here.
• 2:08:00
  They're single and grounded out.
• 2:08:04
  Ball went to him.
• 2:08:17
  Fast ball strike, one and one.
• 2:08:31
  Ground ball to Petsasoli.
• 2:08:35
  One down.
• 2:08:40
  Green is lined out and single twice, two out of three.
• 2:08:49
  A 4-0-9 batter.
• 2:08:52
  The Tigers put him in their uniform here and brought him up from Toledo.
• 2:09:00
  He and his mother own a four shot here at the court.
• 2:09:15
  He's been delivering the roses for the Tigers.
• 2:09:24
  Ball one to Lenny Green.
• 2:09:30
  Tigers ahead one to nothing.
• 2:09:33
  Brandon's low with a two to nothing.
• 2:09:40
  We've got a real seat squirmer going on here in Tiger Stadium.
• 2:09:52
  Two and one.
• 2:10:09
  Bounding ball.
• 2:10:12
  It goes safe at first base.
• 2:10:15
  Andrews made a great play backing up that bad hop over the head of George Scott.
• 2:10:22
  Right side of that Tiger infield.
• 2:10:25
  That's two bad hops in it.
• 2:10:28
  Now watch this ball really take a hop over Scott's head.
• 2:10:31
  And Andrews, keep your eye on him on the back up there.
• 2:10:38
  You can see as Kurt said the ball made a sick a bad hop on George Scott.
• 2:10:42
  Andrews never did give up on the ball.
• 2:10:45
  He just kept going.
• 2:10:46
  Made a great play but the time he rolled over and flipped the ball to the pitcher.
• 2:10:50
  Not in time.
• 2:10:51
  Lenny Green can go down there pretty fast.
• 2:10:53
  There goes Green foul out.
• 2:10:56
  Tigers playing hit and run.
• 2:10:58
  Lenny Green now has three of the four hits for the Tigers.
• 2:11:04
  And they're bringing him back to first base.
• 2:11:06
  The Tigers have one away.
• 2:11:08
  They're leading the Red Sox one to nothing.
• 2:11:10
  The Red Sox in the ninth inning will nail the heart of their batting order up
• 2:11:13
  your Stremsky, Kanigale, Arrow and Scott.
• 2:11:23
  That one hit deep in the center.
• 2:11:25
  Reggie Smith on his horse.
• 2:11:27
  Still going.
• 2:11:28
  He's got it.
• 2:11:29
  400 feet from home plate.
• 2:11:31
  The throw in to Mike Andrews.
• 2:11:34
  Smith just outran that one.
• 2:11:36
  Two down.
• 2:11:37
  Right at the warning path.
• 2:11:39
  This is what we mean about this ballpark.
• 2:11:41
  If you'll keep them from pulling here and you've got a center fielder that can run,
• 2:11:48
  those big long 400 foot flies are outs here.
• 2:11:52
  Two down.
• 2:11:53
  Dick McCullough.
• 2:11:55
  Fly to the right, foul out on what?
• 2:12:16
  Low ball, first strike.
• 2:12:18
  I'll tell you one thing about Reggie Smith.
• 2:12:20
  He turned to his left and he kept that ball right on his left all the way.
• 2:12:25
  A lot of times you see an outfielder turn to the left, that ball's on the right-hand side.
• 2:12:28
  It's tough to catch.
• 2:12:30
  He turned right away and just kept going and went right to the ball.
• 2:12:34
  He handled that one beautifully.
• 2:12:36
  And he whirled and got that ball back into that infield too.
• 2:12:40
  Bring him back.
• 2:12:46
  Two down.
• 2:12:56
  One ball, one strike.
• 2:13:18
  Good one.
• 2:13:48
  How's it off of the plate?
• 2:13:51
  Two and two to McCullough.
• 2:13:53
  The two out, many greens at first.
• 2:13:58
  The Tigers won, the Red Sox nothing in the last of the eighth inning.
• 2:14:15
  Brandon pitching two and two when he delivers to the plate.
• 2:14:31
  Now three and two and green will be going on this pitch.
• 2:14:53
  Two down, green will be running.
• 2:15:20
  There he goes, ball four, runners on first and second.
• 2:15:27
  The matter Norman Cash, flying out, grounded out, and struck out.
• 2:15:39
  Tigers have a great pair of fans all the way in the Bahama Islands.
• 2:15:45
  Mr. and Mrs. Bill Shackle, the Brown Colony club there in Chub Key in the Bahamas,
• 2:15:50
  they've erected a special aerial on their home way over there
• 2:15:56
  deep in the Bahama Islands when they get their NBC games from the Miami State.
• 2:16:01
  And they're great Detroit fans, so imagine they're watching for the Tigers now.
• 2:16:07
  Ball one, Norman Cash, green at second, McCullough at first, two down.
• 2:16:19
  Tigers won, Red Sox nothing.
• 2:16:26
  And now there's ball two and Osinski is starting to warm up for the Red Sox.
• 2:16:34
  Joe Foy is asked for time.
• 2:16:39
  Heated up, third baseman Foy is coming in for two reasons.
• 2:16:43
  One, to try and settle this pitcher Brandon down and to give
• 2:16:47
  Osinski some extra time out on the bullpen.
• 2:16:54
  Just a minute, somebody's going to tell Foy to get back to his third base job
• 2:16:58
  and that's the ball game moving. And here's Valentine about to move out.
• 2:17:11
  Two and nothing to Norman Cash, runners on first and second, two down.
• 2:17:18
  They're not holding at first.
• 2:17:24
  They're just going to get that fastball in there.
• 2:17:31
  I believe he said it was a boy, I should have ripped at it.
• 2:17:37
  Two balls and one strike.
• 2:17:47
  The game is rounding third, the throw by Kanigli Arrows cut off by Scott.
• 2:17:54
  Over to third, McCullough and Cash delivers a big hit for the Tigers.
• 2:18:00
  Instead of a one run ball game now it's a two run game.
• 2:18:03
  A little bit different for a pitcher to work on in the ninth inning.
• 2:18:06
  Makes it a lot easier for him now, Kurt.
• 2:18:08
  He doesn't have that dying run at the plate every time the hitter comes up there.
• 2:18:12
  Especially having to realize today, as hot as it is, he looks like he's a little tired at the plate.
• 2:18:19
  He's walking awful slow back and forth from the mound.
• 2:18:25
  Runners on first and third, two outs.
• 2:18:28
  The Tigers leading now two to nothing, the last of the eighth and Jim Northrop out.
• 2:18:33
  Now struck out, grounded out, and fouled out.
• 2:18:45
  All in.
• 2:19:05
  Flipping the pitch to Sully for the fourth play on Cash.
• 2:19:08
  The side's out but the Tigers picked up a big run.
• 2:19:11
  On two hits, no Red Sox there, the Tigers left two.
• 2:19:16
  At the end of eighth the score, the Detroit Tigers two, the Boston Red Sox nothing.
• 2:19:27
  Days like this, a man has time to notice things.
• 2:19:32
  Like the little sounds of deep woods and shallow water and the fresh taste of a salem.
• 2:19:41
  See how salem refreshes your taste. From the first puff to the last puff refreshes your taste.
• 2:20:06
  Discover rich tobacco taste. Menthol soft flavor in salem filter cigarettes.
• 2:20:15
  America's largest selling menthol because salem refreshes your taste.
• 2:20:28
  The ninth inning fans in Tiger Stadium, the Red Sox have their three, four, and five hitters up their lineup up.
• 2:20:35
  Justremski, Kanigla, and Scott facing Denny McLean who's allowed just three hits and no runs so far in this game.
• 2:20:43
  Alliance score for eight innings.
• 2:20:45
  The Tigers have two runs, five hits, and no errors.
• 2:20:48
  The Red Sox have no runs, three hits, and one error.
• 2:20:52
  Dick Trzyski is going to third base now for the Tigers replacing Jerry Lumpkin.
• 2:21:15
  Justremski is lined into a double play, double the right center, and grounded after first, adding three-thirty.
• 2:21:33
  Live ball looping into the right field corner of base for Justremski to start off the ninth. And now the tying run will be coming to the plate.
• 2:21:46
  Not around first, nobody out. Tony Kanigla up and action now is bringing up in the Tiger Bowl fan.
• 2:22:04
  Right, Marshall and Gladding. Gladdick's number 20, Marshall's 28. Tony Kanigla, light out three times, twice the center, once the right.
• 2:22:18
  Adding 299.
• 2:22:27
  High fly left center, Stanley has flipped the sunglasses down, looking up.
• 2:22:43
  Six putouts for Stanley in center field.
• 2:22:46
  The American League record is 11 putouts by a center fielder.
• 2:22:50
  The Major League record is 12 putouts for a center fielder.
• 2:22:54
  George Scott has bounced to the pitcher, struck out, and grounded out.
• 2:23:02
  On our NBC scoreboard, it's the Red Sox nothing and the Tigers two. Ninth inning, last call for the Red Sox.
• 2:23:14
  All on to Scott. That's the Salas on deck.
• 2:23:26
  Justremski up first, one out.
• 2:23:33
  Two and all. Blaine looks like he's a little tired, Sandy. He looks like he's struggling, Kurt, but the last three, four innings, his pitch probably is best baseball.
• 2:23:44
  He's stayed out of less trouble. He's gone with the fastball a little bit more. His curveball he's made a few mistakes with, but he hasn't thrown as many as we've seen him throw.
• 2:23:56
  The two-nothing pitch to Scott is three and all now, and the Tiger fans now are starting to rumble with uneasiness as the Red Sox have a runner-on first, one out, and a three-nothing count to George Scott.
• 2:24:13
  Thirty thousand fans here today, Tiger Stadium.
• 2:24:23
  The three-oh pitch. Right in there to him, three and one.
• 2:24:46
  Three and one to George Scott. All four. That's the fourth walk by McLean, but his first walk since the fourth inning.
• 2:24:57
  The Red Sox now have runners on first and second, one out.
• 2:25:03
  Enrico Peppaseli up. Peppaseli has lined up the short walk to pop the short.
• 2:25:32
  He pops it up. The infield flyer will call the batter automatically out. Runners advance with their own rest. Two down.
• 2:25:40
  Follow and handle it. And rookie Reggie Smith now, the last hope for the Red Sox. He's grounded up first, flying to left and double, one out of three.
• 2:26:09
  The Smemski's up second. Scott's up first. Two down.
• 2:26:30
  All one to Smith.
• 2:26:41
  Two down, ninth inning. Tigers two, Red Sox nothing.
• 2:27:02
  There's Scott at first. The Smemski's second. And Jose Santiago now warming up in the Red Sox bullpen.
• 2:27:13
  Russ Gibson, the Red Sox, catches the on-deck batter.
• 2:27:21
  Two nothing pitch. He changed up and got it over for a strike. Two and one. There's Santiago.
• 2:27:44
  And Dale Smith watching intently his pitcher, McLean, hoping for that last out, the hardest out to get in the ballgame.
• 2:27:53
  Two and one is the count.
• 2:27:57
  A chopper hit the short. Euler makes the play the ballgame goal.
• 2:28:02
  As McLean is pitched his first shot out of the air.
• 2:28:06
  The tying runs were on here in the ninth inning, but McLean on a hot afternoon had enough to withstand the Red Sox threat.
• 2:28:14
  In the ninth, the Red Sox no runs, one hit, there were no errors, and two left.
• 2:28:19
  So the final score, the Detroit Tigers two runs, five hits, and no errors. The Boston Red Sox no runs.
• 2:28:32
  Many people actually believe that old beer is good beer.
• 2:28:38
  If this were true, people would have beer sellers.
• 2:28:44
  And we'd bottle our vintage beer in nifty looking decanters.
• 2:28:50
  And you could tuck away your oldest beer with the rest of your extra private stock.
• 2:28:57
  You could save it for extra special occasions.
• 2:29:02
  Serve it in nice little sophisticated glasses.
• 2:29:07
  Or maybe you'd even whip up a vintage beer sling.
• 2:29:13
  Well the truth is, the fresher the beer, the better the taste.
• 2:29:17
  That's why we brew Black Label locally, all around the country.
• 2:29:21
  In fact, you can't buy any good old college Black Label.
• 2:29:34
  Well that was a big run the Tigers picked up in the eighth inning.
• 2:29:39
  When they were leading one nothing, Lenny Green got on with a hit, finally scored our Norm Cash's single.
• 2:29:45
  That made it two nothing because the Red Sox, the Scripps, he led off the top of the ninth with a single.
• 2:29:50
  And the Red Sox might have played a little bit differently with a bunch trying to move a man on into scoring position.
• 2:29:55
  There's your line score again and the Tigers have won their sixth in a row.
• 2:30:00
  And the Red Sox have lost their fourth in a row.
• 2:30:03
  This broke a Red Sox streak though.
• 2:30:05
  Their last ten losses have all been by one run.
• 2:30:08
  That is the last ten games they've lost.
• 2:30:10
  But today they lost by two runs.
• 2:30:12
  Again the final score, the Tigers two and the Red Sox nothing.
• 2:30:16
  We'll continue to review the action of today's game.
• 2:30:24
  The man with the wild new 67 sports Barracuda has a lot going for him.
• 2:30:30
  He's got a car with the irresistible look, the irresistible feel of a European sports car.
• 2:30:45
  And the beauty isn't only skin deep.
• 2:30:48
  Barracuda has plenty of V8 muscle to back it up.
• 2:30:55
  Wild attraction number two, Barracuda Hardtop, America's lowest priced sports car.
• 2:31:03
  Yet it can be made as personal as you want it.
• 2:31:06
  Take a 67 Barracuda for a test drive.
• 2:31:08
  You won't be disappointed.
