  Detroit Tigers faced the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium for a Sunday double header on July 3rd, 1960.
• 0:13
  The Tigers were managed by Jimmy Dykes and were an average team.
• 0:16
  They had finished in fourth or fifth place in the American League for six straight seasons.
• 0:20
  They added some new power to the team in 1960, however, adding Rocky Calabito and Norm Cash to the roster.
• 0:26
  The Yankees were on top of the American League with a 41-25 record entering this game under manager Casey Stengel,
• 0:32
  who was looking to lead them back to the World Series after a third-place finish in 1959.
• 0:36
  The Saudi recording is from the New York Radio broadcast featuring announcers Phil Rizzuto and Mel Allen.
• 0:42
  Well, the Yankees are in good shape as we approach the time when, according to the baseball axiom,
• 0:49
  the team in first place on the 4th of July is the team that is supposed to be there
• 0:54
  when the last game of the season has been played.
• 0:57
  That is held true in more cases than not, however, it is not something in which you can always bet all of your possessions.
• 1:04
  But it's a nice place to be any time, and the Yankees are substantially better off than they were a year ago at this time
• 1:10
  and look to be really coming on as of right now.
• 1:14
  With the lineups being exchanged, let's take a look and see what the batting orders will be.
• 1:18
  For the Detroit Tigers, Eddie Yost leads off at third base, Frank Bowling at second,
• 1:25
  Charlie Maxwell will be in left field, Cash at first base, Colavito in right, Al Kailin in center,
• 1:34
  Chico Fernandez at shortstop, Red Wilson catching, and Don Mosse pitching.
• 1:41
  For the Yanks, Richardson at second, Lopez in left, Maris in right field, Mantle in center,
• 1:50
  Skowron in first base, McDougall at third, Alston Howard will catch,
• 1:59
  and Cletus Boyer will be at shortstop as Tony Kubek rides the bench as we start this doubleheader, and Charlie will pitch.
• 2:14
  No need to tell you that the Yankees have taken the field as that roar goes up.
• 2:19
  The Sangal and Yanks exchange a few words at home plate before breaking up, and now we'll all rise for our national anthem.
• 3:19
  On the scoreboard in the American League, Kansas City and Boston just getting underway, Chicago and Baltimore likewise just starting,
• 3:30
  Cleveland and Washington have gone four innings, and at the end of four, it's all tied up 1-1.
• 3:37
  National League, the Giants and Phillies, Phillies won last night, making Tom Sheehan's woes a little more woeful.
• 3:46
  The Phillies and the Giants at the end of two, San Francisco leads 1-0.
• 3:51
  Los Angeles playing at Pittsburgh, that's just starting. Cincinnati at Chicago and Milwaukee at St. Louis, games that will start later.
• 4:00
  Following today's ballgame, the Yankees move down to Washington. They'll play a single game there tomorrow afternoon.
• 4:16
  Eddie Yost for the Detroit Tigers, moves into the batter's box, that's played on by Bill McKinley, gives home plate the Whistler treatment,
• 4:26
  and Bob Turley is set, and we're about set for the first pitch of the ballgame at two minutes after two.
• 4:37
  Turley's first pitch comes in a fastball for a foul strike.
• 4:42
  Red Barber is handling the play-by-play description of the first part of today's ballgame, and we'll be picking the redhead up in just a moment.
• 4:53
  Here is the next pitch, swung on and foul back up the screens, strike two. Red.
• 5:01
  Bill McKinley is back at the plate, Jim Warnock takes it first, next to Child Act is second, John Stevens is the third base on fire.
• 5:08
  Yankee infield, Schouen, Richardson, Boyer, and McDougal.
• 5:13
  The outfield is the same as it has been recently, this tremendous surge the Yankees let loose starting early in June.
• 5:19
  Lopez, Mantle, and Maris. Curveball is outside for Bryce.
• 5:25
  Now it is catching.
• 5:29
  The Yankees have four starters in the all-star game by the election of players in the league,
• 5:33
  Berra, Schouen, Maris, and Mantle.
• 5:37
  One-two pitch, curveball, foul strike three.
• 5:42
  Boy, you really bent that one.
• 5:45
  Yost is about to straighten up, keeps getting hit on the head, and the ball just goes round and round.
• 5:52
  Frank Bowling, hitting a two-forty-three.
• 5:56
  Outfield is one step to our left.
• 6:02
  The Yankees really won one heroically.
• 6:06
  They came as close to getting beat just as they could and still pulled it out.
• 6:09
  They had two men out in the last half of the ninth inning, got three runs to win it.
• 6:14
  And I was open to Detroit Dugout for a while, and I very carefully didn't bring up anything about yesterday.
• 6:21
  And I guarantee you that none of them volunteered anything about yesterday either.
• 6:27
  Passball is over for a strike, one-and-one.
• 6:30
  You know, when you think about it, great as it is to win one like that,
• 6:34
  the Yankees, of course, are just ecstatic, single out the game.
• 6:36
  Such a first one like that in a year and a half that we snatched back.
• 6:40
  It is just equally painful for the ball club that loses it.
• 6:46
  One-one pitch, passball fouled off.
• 6:51
  I had a pregame television show to do over in the Detroit Dugout, so I was over there half an hour before the show,
• 6:56
  and Dyches was sitting over there in the dugout, and I walked in, and he nodded.
• 7:01
  I've been friends a long time. I nodded right back, and that's all the conversation we had.
• 7:11
  That's how you end a broadcasting career, you know.
• 7:15
  I'd gone and said, hey, Jimmy, won that a game yesterday, huh?
• 7:24
  Two balls and two strikes.
• 7:27
  One man out, Frank Bowling, slender right-hand hitter, one of the top second baseman in the league.
• 7:32
  Charlie Pitches, called strike three, threw his slider right over the outside, hand high.
• 7:37
  Boom. That was a power pitch.
• 7:41
  So the first two fellows looked at third ones, and here's old Paw Paw, Charlie Maxwell.
• 7:48
  We call him old Paw Paw because his hometown is Paw Paw, Michigan.
• 7:59
  Maxwell standing right up on that plate, the left-hand batter, hitting two-eleven.
• 8:02
  He's the power man for them.
• 8:05
  The last time that the Tigers beat the Yankees ballgame, he did a home run-off during the win at Detroit, if you'll recall.
• 8:13
  Pitches inside, ball one.
• 8:18
  It's a beautiful July afternoon, and you've got a fine crowd here.
• 8:23
  Change of places high outside, ball two.
• 8:27
  Two balls, no strikes.
• 8:35
  Two-one-oh.
• 8:37
  Two men down, nobody on.
• 8:40
  Look at the first two batters, that's the story of the ballgame.
• 8:43
  Up to here, they play Maxwell around toward right.
• 8:48
  Fastball is outside, ball three.
• 8:54
  Three balls and no strikes.
• 9:02
  Charlie ready.
• 9:04
  Charlie behind now, three-and-oh.
• 9:10
  Delivers low inside, ball four.
• 9:12
  Maxwell drops the bat and drops out the first base.
• 9:14
  So Charlie starts out with two strikes, now comes up for the base on balls.
• 9:19
  And Norman Cash getting in.
• 9:22
  17-173.
• 9:38
  Cash steps out.
• 9:48
  That's in, hit it.
• 9:52
  Third ball is in there for a strike.
• 9:56
  It's a fellow they got from the White Sox.
• 10:02
  Well, they didn't get him from the White Sox.
• 10:03
  Cleveland got him from the White Sox, and they got him from Cleveland.
• 10:06
  Traded Steve Demeter to the Indians for it.
• 10:12
  Change of places, low inside, ball one.
• 10:14
  One-and-one.
• 10:16
  Cash started out in Pro Ball and 55 at Waterloo.
• 10:20
  The White Sox are part of 13 games in 58, just 250.
• 10:24
  Last year, they hit 240 in 58 games with Chicago.
• 10:34
  It's more than close this time.
• 10:37
  Swings on, fouls the ball back.
• 10:40
  Strike two.
• 10:41
  One-and-two.
• 10:45
  One ball, two strikes.
• 10:47
  Maxwell is first base on balls, two outs, no score.
• 10:57
  We have a breeze that is pleasant and strong and blowing from right field toward left.
• 11:09
  Big Charlie steps off the rubber.
• 11:12
  Maxwell runs the strike on.
• 11:15
  Now Bob is ready.
• 11:18
  Pitches a curve just outside, and it is ball two.
• 11:22
  Charlie thought he had the third strike.
• 11:23
  Started to step off the mound toward the dugout.
• 11:26
  McKinnon says, no fouls outside.
• 11:31
  All right, two-and-two.
• 11:38
  Cash swinging from the end.
• 11:41
  He's not a big fellow, but he's very scivvy to build.
• 11:45
  He gives the impression of strength.
• 11:49
  Somebody over in the Yankee dugout is getting up, and I just want to turn around and grin.
• 11:54
  Look, grins all the time.
• 11:56
  Cash takes strike three.
• 11:58
  Oh, that was a fastball in there.
• 12:00
  Charlie strikes off the side.
• 12:04
  So at the end of half an inning, it is Detroit nothing.
• 12:06
  As we start the big afternoon, the Yankees coming in for their first lick.
• 12:19
  Never stop to think about the little things that add up to having a good day.
• 12:23
  Things like a bright, sunny morning, hot coffee, toast, done the way you like it.
• 12:29
  And when you hop in your car and you want the engine to start right up,
• 12:32
  you idle smoothly to give good performance while you're on the go.
• 12:36
  Many times it's the little things that keep an engine running at its best,
• 12:39
  like a clean carburetor.
• 12:41
  Today's Atlantic Imperial Gasoline is specially designed to clean your carburetor as you drive and keep it clean.
• 12:49
  A clean carburetor means smoother performance and greater gasoline economy.
• 12:54
  Make every day a good day.
• 12:56
  Start off with Atlantic Imperial Gasoline and keep your car on the go.
• 13:07
  Bobby Richardson, Hector Lopez, and Nicky Mantle, or Roger Maris, rather.
• 13:18
  Now as we look around the big ballpark, we see some of those areas up in the extreme right and left field corners filling up rather rapidly.
• 13:25
  While the ballpark is not capacity, you would not find a variety of good seats available.
• 13:32
  Let's put it that way.
• 13:34
  You might have to sit behind a poster, too, and even those seats, the way the crowd still keeps coming in, maybe filled up.
• 13:40
  Now this will come close to being the largest crowd of the season.
• 13:56
  All right, Don Loffey, touching to Bobby Richardson.
• 14:02
  Take low, ball one.
• 14:06
  The Yankees have made a change in deference to the left-handed pitching Mosse.
• 14:13
  Vance Kubeck, with McDougall of short, and Boyer, or rather McDougall of third.
• 14:20
  There is a pop-up of cash in foul ground at the moment next to cash.
• 14:27
  Kubeck is out, and they have two right-handed swingers on the left side of the infield, and they kill those on Boyer.
• 14:36
  There is Hector Lopez and Red Barber.
• 14:48
  That's real shady, except for left. He's got his forward foot right up against the plate, and his back foot drawn back of him.
• 14:57
  Pitchers on the outside, ball one.
• 15:06
  One ball, and off right.
• 15:09
  Don Mosse, left-hander.
• 15:14
  Neal's curveball is low inside, and it is ball two.
• 15:23
  Mosse is very much a blue net.
• 15:33
  Pumps, pitches.
• 15:37
  Low inside, ball three.
• 15:40
  Three and out.
• 15:43
  That was exactly overawed by that last decision.
• 15:49
  You can see pitchers winch, you know.
• 15:56
  Three-nothing pitch, and there for the strike.
• 16:00
  I think Hank Bauer put it most graphically when he was talking about a close call going against the pitchers.
• 16:06
  He was sitting up in the stands with us one day down at the training camp, and he says,
• 16:09
  Look at that old pitcher fumes. He thought that was a strike.
• 16:15
  And pitches won't strike.
• 16:17
  The three-one pitch, low inside, ball four.
• 16:21
  Throw it up that walk.
• 16:24
  And he's on with one out, last of the first inning, no score, and here is Roger Marich.
• 16:29
  He's got it in the backhand.
• 16:46
  Roger Marich hitting a three-29.
• 16:49
  Twenty-five home runs, sixty-four RBI.
• 16:53
  He's the starting right fielder for the American League All-Stars.
• 16:56
  The curve is over, right wing.
• 17:01
  This year as last year, the players in the league voted for those who would start,
• 17:06
  that's the pitchers.
• 17:08
  And the only stipulation was you could not vote for anybody on your own squad,
• 17:12
  which meant that Marich got no Yankee votes.
• 17:15
  There was no stuff in the ballot box.
• 17:19
  He was elected as a star by the players of the seven other teams in the league.
• 17:24
  And the other players in the league regarded him as the best right fielder in the league.
• 17:27
  Same thing for Madeline Center, Minosso on the left.
• 17:31
  Schouen at first base.
• 17:34
  A surprise, I think, was Reynolds.
• 17:36
  The players elected him.
• 17:38
  And Boston.
• 17:40
  And this rookie shortstop at Baltimore, Hanson.
• 17:43
  See, that must be meaningful to him.
• 17:46
  And the third baseman, Malzone.
• 17:48
  That's no surprise.
• 17:49
  And Mr. Bauer is still by the vote of his opposing players, the top catcher.
• 17:55
  Marich swings and hits a hard-fired ball out into short center field.
• 17:58
  The second baseman is moving under it.
• 18:01
  He has it.
• 18:02
  The ball was hung up there long enough.
• 18:04
  He is the second baseman of the shortstop.
• 18:06
  Make an easy play of it.
• 18:07
  Now we have two down and there's Mantle.
• 18:18
  And Mati hitting 269.
• 18:21
  Batting right-handed against Mati.
• 18:27
  Matfield deep, well around front left on Mantle.
• 18:30
  Howl's coaching at first base.
• 18:31
  Serzetti at third.
• 18:34
  The Detroit infield is cash at first, Bowling at second.
• 18:37
  Fernandez is doing a great job as a short and the veteran third baseman, Eddie Yost.
• 18:42
  Down Mati pitches and Mantle fouls it back on the screen.
• 18:47
  And there's Winston who drove in three runs yesterday.
• 18:52
  Out in left field is Charlie Maxwell.
• 18:56
  Center fielder.
• 18:59
  K-line.
• 19:00
  And the right fielder is the bronze boy who had four hits yesterday.
• 19:05
  Looks like he's about ready to get off the reservation.
• 19:07
  Rocco Calavito.
• 19:09
  All right, no score.
• 19:10
  Two down.
• 19:11
  Lopez at first.
• 19:12
  Mati pitches a curve just outside under the ball once.
• 19:17
  One and one.
• 19:20
  Don sort of thought he had that.
• 19:22
  And apparently there's a yip that comes out of the Detroit bench probably from Dyches.
• 19:27
  McKenna, the play down fire, turns over to the Detroit bench and points to the outside of the plate,
• 19:31
  meaning the pitch is wide.
• 19:34
  One ball, two strikes.
• 19:46
  That was a decided change of pace from Mati who had been working with curves and suddenly he let that one loose.
• 19:54
  One ball, two strikes.
• 20:00
  Catch holding first against Lopez.
• 20:04
  The pitch swung on in line in the center field for a base hit.
• 20:07
  Lopez goes down the second and holds on on K-line's arm.
• 20:12
  Throw in and it's cut off the short.
• 20:14
  So a man will get the first hit of the game, the line single to center.
• 20:18
  And the moose comes up to the plate.
• 20:24
  Just when it looks as though all was gone yesterday in the night time with two men out,
• 20:29
  failing by two.
• 20:31
  Up comes Mr. Skaren and buzz the home run.
• 20:34
  McGoogle followed with a triple.
• 20:36
  Richardson followed with a single.
• 20:38
  Hipsmop pinched it a double.
• 20:40
  And Damesha got his first hit of the Yankee, a single, and the tournament was over.
• 20:50
  Yankees are first and second.
• 20:52
  Two men out.
• 20:53
  No score.
• 20:55
  First inning, first to two games.
• 21:04
  Lopez starts to walk out second base, bowling the second base and broke in and Maddler hollered at Lopez.
• 21:09
  Look out.
• 21:13
  The mighty moose up there hitting 316 and he gets saved in his last seven.
• 21:18
  Takes a slider low inside, ball one.
• 21:23
  One ball, no strike.
• 21:29
  Not too around toward left.
• 21:38
  Left hand delivers and it's a curve low inside, ball two.
• 21:43
  Two and 0.
• 21:49
  Monta being a little bit more deliberate now.
• 21:58
  Infield is back.
• 22:01
  Two men gone.
• 22:04
  Lopez steps up second.
• 22:05
  Maddler has a long lead with the first baseman deep at first.
• 22:08
  Monta checks second pitches.
• 22:10
  Darn swing, hits the ball toward the right corner.
• 22:12
  It is foul.
• 22:15
  It was in there but just the wrong side of the foul pole.
• 22:21
  You know when Sharon hits the ball and it goes just as far in any direction, you don't have to pull it.
• 22:27
  You knew that one had more than enough distance but you had to wait because it was going right down the line.
• 22:32
  The moose was apprehensive about it staying fair too because you could see he started to run and then hesitated and ran another step.
• 22:44
  Two balls, one strike.
• 22:53
  Sharon sets that foul for figures.
• 22:55
  Monta delivers and Sharon hits the line, drives foul right back to the first base coach, Ralph House.
• 23:01
  Boy, he hit that ball hard toward right side.
• 23:05
  Two and two. Two balls, two strikes, two outs. No score.
• 23:19
  Well, Monta is said to have been warned about pitching outside the challenge.
• 23:23
  With his first two pitches he tried to pitch him low inside and ball one, ball two.
• 23:30
  You can always get that ball just where you want it.
• 23:33
  Now let's see. Monta is set.
• 23:36
  Head Bob checks the run out of the pitch.
• 23:38
  Sharon swings and fouls it back and knocks the mask off of Wilson to catch it.
• 23:42
  Throw it off of his head.
• 23:51
  Listen, don't think those foul balls don't jaw you.
• 23:56
  You get in the back eye or broken nose, missing some teeth, cracking a tinnitus, but it does not minimize the impact.
• 24:09
  I've heard catches played on par, says these foul tips, it's like a fellow hits you in the face with his fist, the jaw.
• 24:17
  All right, two balls, two strikes, two outs.
• 24:22
  Monta delivers and Sharon's swinging, hits a high foul, out of play, back to first base.
• 24:29
  Nine-twenty-two.
• 24:44
  Monta, ready with another apple.
• 25:01
  John comes down, front of the stick that leads. The pitch is hung on foul back.
• 25:14
  Felling out, Sharon is making Monta work.
• 25:31
  Nine-twenty-two.
• 25:47
  John has a goal to third base and Sharon holds the first with a solid single and a date straight game for it.
• 26:03
  Well, a date straight for the Moose, it's not one or nothing to play for the Yankees.
• 26:11
  Monta came down with a change of pace and Sharon's properly taken it out.
• 26:15
  John McDougall went into pinch hit yesterday and came up with a double to right center.
• 26:20
  And then when the Yankees were run behind and two out in the last of the ninth inning, triple to deep left center.
• 26:26
  That's the first stop for McDougall since June 6th when young Boyer got in there and became just simply sensational.
• 26:34
  That's where it stands. Swings it to the curve, hits it to the right field corner. It is a face hit. There's Campbell in the score and it's a Brown-Rose double.
• 26:46
  The ball is touched by a fan down in the corner. So McDougall has really come back to work with a vengeance.
• 26:53
  It did not do nothing in favor of the Yankees. He'll double down the right field corner.
• 26:59
  And the Brown-Rose is held to third base. Maddow's course is scored.
• 27:05
  Hank Agari is in the bullpen. The left hander fits one man and walked him without throwing a strike in the jam yesterday.
• 27:13
  Maddow is scored.
• 27:19
  The Yankees are now ahead two-nothing.
• 27:24
  There's Elton Howard. Howard hitting two-fifty-three.
• 27:32
  And they're going to put him on at first base. Leverett, based on balls, is now a forthcoming.
• 27:39
  It means they'll put him at first and pitch to Boyer.
• 27:48
  There's ball three. All of them are purposely wide.
• 27:56
  And ball four. So Howard is on.
• 28:03
  Leverett Boyer, who has been the third baseman, is now starting in shortstop today.
• 28:07
  Hitting two-eighteen.
• 28:12
  The Yankees are leading two-nothing.
• 28:17
  First of the double-header.
• 28:21
  First inning of it.
• 28:24
  Three on Boyer.
• 28:31
  Not too ideal. Then it's a curve in, therefore a strike. Nothing in wide.
• 28:41
  No balls, one strike.
• 28:52
  Pitch is outside.
• 28:55
  They're hard, one-and-one.
• 29:01
  Ball strike two-down. The Yankees have got two in the bank.
• 29:06
  So they have man-terrally to work on. They're trying to get more right here at the start.
• 29:16
  There's a ground ball to third. And it gets through Yost. Everybody is safe, and another run is in.
• 29:25
  The ground ball right at the third baseman, and Yost is charged with an error. It is no run batted in.
• 29:32
  So E-five is scoring.
• 29:37
  So everything is happening to the Tigers now.
• 29:40
  It's three-nothing in favor of the Yankees, and the pitcher Bob Curley is coming up.
• 29:46
  This third run is not earned, and any other runs that may be scored in this inning cannot be earned.
• 29:54
  Only two can be, first of.
• 29:57
  Well, the single turn to a pitcher Dittmar, and he pinched it a double yesterday. Coach is hitting 344.
• 30:03
  I imagine Curley is up there with a base hit on his mind.
• 30:07
  If he could gather it would make his afternoon much more pleasant, work easier.
• 30:11
  He swings at the curve ball, strike one.
• 30:15
  And that's the way Dittmar is going to do the starting pitch of the second game.
• 30:27
  Nothing in one.
• 30:31
  He's ready.
• 30:34
  Curley swings and hits a high five ball out to left field.
• 30:37
  Well, Charlie Maxwell is camped under it, so left field are waiting. He's got it.
• 30:42
  So that's it. Three runs are in. Nine men bat, three men are left.
• 30:47
  There were three hits. There was one error, and they are across the third run.
• 30:51
  Score at the end of the first inning, the Yankees three, and the Tigers nothing.
• 30:57
  First of a double header at Washington at the end of six innings.
• 30:59
  It is Cleveland five and Washington one.
• 31:02
  Held and seen as a home run for the Indians, and Lemon as it is 19-4 Washington.
• 31:07
  Terry is pitching this to Cleveland.
• 31:09
  And the National League at the end of three and a half innings at Philadelphia,
• 31:12
  San Francisco five, Philadelphia nothing.
• 31:16
  North Shore end of inning and a half, Los Angeles and Pittsburgh.
• 31:21
  Cincinnati is ready to start at Chicago, the same as Milwaukee, upstate Lloyd.
• 31:29
  Well, head right a fair bit. Calabito hitting 252. He had four single-goers today.
• 31:41
  All right, hand batting.
• 31:44
  So Troy is limbering up calisthenics, as you know.
• 31:51
  Three-nothing, save in New York. And there's a bounce ball over the mound.
• 31:54
  Troy the jump can't get it. In comes Richardson and makes the throw and gets him at first base.
• 32:07
  That ball was dying on the pitching side of second base, and Richardson came in.
• 32:10
  He's been playing deep.
• 32:12
  Grabbed the ball through across his chest without any waste of time and just nipped him.
• 32:21
  One up, one away. And the hitter is K-line batting 234.
• 32:30
  That's the other step toward left. Surely the fastball is outside, ball one.
• 32:51
  That's over. Good hog. It's the both knees on the outside, one and one.
• 33:00
  Surely his one is last five, not five and one.
• 33:05
  This ball is starting in the second game, his one is last four.
• 33:08
  Fastball's thrown on, bounce over the mound, and Baia comes up with it.
• 33:11
  It's draw, throws to first and gets him.
• 33:15
  You've had two base hits in a row. That's these young men, first pitcher and now Baia, taking away from the Tigers.
• 33:23
  That's draw.
• 33:26
  Now we have Chico Fernandez hitting 259 and giving them a great job at short stops.
• 33:32
  They got him during the winter from Philadelphia.
• 33:37
  That feels straight away, not too deep.
• 33:44
  The swings and bounces of all two Baia.
• 33:46
  That's a short hop, but there's a draw at the first.
• 33:48
  Ten times.
• 33:50
  What a fast infield.
• 33:54
  The crowd are letting out for the big draw of approval.
• 33:58
  And the draw at the end of an inning and a half, the Yankees three and the Tigers nothing.
• 34:06
  Buenos dias, señor. You are an Atlantic dealer?
• 34:08
  Yes, sir. I'm an Atlantic dealer. Can I help you?
• 34:10
  I am Luis Andalingo Cordoba, greatest bullfighter in all the world. Never have I known a bull to snort like this automobile.
• 34:17
  Snorts, huh? What type of car is it?
• 34:19
  Taurus.
• 34:20
  Well, maybe Taurus. Maybe your car has a dirty carburetor.
• 34:22
  El carburador, señor?
• 34:23
  Yes. When a carburetor gets dirty, it can cause rough engine performance and waste gasoline.
• 34:27
  Muy malo, señor.
• 34:28
  But now we can fix that with Atlantic Imperial gasoline. It cleans your carburetor as you drive and keeps it clean.
• 34:34
  Muy bueno, señor. And this Atlantic Imperial, it works fast?
• 34:37
  Fast as you can say, ole. Like to try it?
• 34:39
  Let's see. It is time to take the bull by the horn.
• 34:44
  Ah, the car's performance is almost as smooth as one of my own.
• 34:47
  If this were a bull, I would award Atlantic both ears and the tail. Atlantic keeps the car on the go.
• 34:54
  The last of the second inning, it'll be Richardson, Lopez, and Maris.
• 35:10
  Bobby Singleton, my mother, knocked in the tying run last night.
• 35:12
  That projected the string through seven straights.
• 35:15
  And the Yankees are really hot while they're on their way.
• 35:18
  You can just tell. They're failing. They're just going to take it away from everybody.
• 35:23
  Bobby swings on what looks to be a screwball as low as down like once.
• 35:34
  See nothing to be off here in the first one.
• 35:39
  Bobby swings at the high foul, close over by the Vista's dugout.
• 35:43
  Let's see, Wilson coming back to catch her. And, oh, he's got it right on in.
• 35:47
  But he does not stay with it.
• 35:49
  Oh, he's rugged.
• 35:51
  Boy, that rail in front of the back seat didn't mean anything to him.
• 35:58
  And I tell you one thing, whoever built that railing really constructed it.
• 36:04
  Probably used to back up the line, you know, for Wisconsin.
• 36:08
  All right, no balls, two strikes.
• 36:13
  Watch the deal. High, and it is ball one, high and outside.
• 36:38
  Let's send our pitchers in.
• 36:43
  There's a base hitter lined single into left center.
• 36:46
  That's a great game for Bobby.
• 36:48
  Takes his turn, first and holds on.
• 36:50
  The tail ironer saves the ball, throws it in.
• 36:52
  So Richardson, a foot swing lines out to left center.
• 36:55
  Oh, this Yankee ball comes on fire.
• 37:02
  Here is Hector Lopez.
• 37:05
  He walked in the first inning.
• 37:07
  And then the two men out, Maddell single, Sharon single, and McGoogle double.
• 37:12
  Now it walks and came an hour and a third.
• 37:20
  Lopez sets.
• 37:24
  Cash holding first base against Richardson.
• 37:26
  Massey pitches, and Lopez bunch up for a first base.
• 37:29
  Coach feels it close to the second base and bowling coming just in time.
• 37:32
  And they sacrifice Bobby neatly right on over.
• 37:35
  Lopez laid down a well-not-perfect bunch.
• 37:43
  Now we have Roger Maritz, who pops up second in the first inning.
• 37:48
  After a broad right.
• 38:00
  Let's end it here.
• 38:10
  Let's end it here.
• 38:12
  Let's end it here.
• 38:14
  Don Massey, let's end it here.
• 38:16
  Delivers and Maritz swinging at the high foul ball.
• 38:19
  Wilson is charging back, charging back.
• 38:21
  He's getting under it closer to the fans than he has it.
• 38:25
  Maritz fouled out.
• 38:27
  Two men gone.
• 38:29
  And the middle is Maddell.
• 38:31
  We've got the first hit of the game.
• 38:33
  The line single the center in the first inning.
• 38:47
  He's got his average up now about 270.
• 39:02
  Massey taking a long time to read the sign,
• 39:05
  because the sign will have to be given in a sequence to run a rip
• 39:08
  and second base can fit as well as a pitcher.
• 39:12
  He's got his eye outside, ball one.
• 39:25
  One ball, no strike.
• 39:30
  Yankee's leading three-nothing.
• 39:33
  Now the Detroit left-hander deals and Mickey swings
• 39:36
  and grabs it down the goal.
• 39:38
  And nobody can't recover and climb the thrall, so that's a base hit.
• 39:42
  Knocks the ball down just inside the foul line deep back to third,
• 39:45
  but cannot recover for the thrall.
• 39:49
  So it is a single for Manil, giving two to two.
• 39:55
  Richardson moves over to third base.
• 39:58
  And a five-hit for New York.
• 40:00
  And here's Cowan, who's single,
• 40:02
  but not in the first run in the first inning.
• 40:08
  Yankee's leading three-nothing and going for more.
• 40:16
  That's his gate.
• 40:19
  Two steps around toward left.
• 40:25
  First three-nothing New York. Yankee's at first and third.
• 40:32
  Two outs, second inning, first game.
• 40:35
  Cowan hits a high five ball to D. Bright.
• 40:37
  Salavado is on risk, coming in as the wind catches it, makes the catch.
• 40:44
  That's all for the Baird. No runs, two hits.
• 40:47
  And at the end of two innings, it's the Yankees, three runs, five hits, and no errors.
• 40:51
  And the Tigers, no runs, no hits, and one error.
• 40:57
  A clean carburetor gives smoother driving performance,
• 41:00
  so use new Atlantic Imperials, the gasoline that cleans your carburetor and keeps it clean.
• 41:05
  Now we have Wilson first up as we move into the third inning.
• 41:09
  The big catcher drove in three yesterday.
• 41:16
  Wilson hits 243 right now.
• 41:20
  Yankees on top three-nothing, Kelly Beal, high outside ball too.
• 41:26
  Two-and-oh.
• 41:36
  Two balls, no strike.
• 41:45
  That is in there for the strike.
• 41:50
  This is the last time the Yankees will be here until they return with a white stock, Friday night, July 22.
• 41:59
  That's a big weekend.
• 42:02
  Friday night game, Saturday afternoon, July 23, and a double hit on Sunday, July 24.
• 42:06
  Ground ball hits the start.
• 42:08
  Boyum over the first and Wilson's out.
• 42:14
  And here's Mosse coming up to use for himself.
• 42:21
  Cleveland will come in on the heels of the white stock, or Tuesday night, July 26,
• 42:27
  and a double hitter Wednesday, July 27, and a night game, which your schedule is not thorough, Thursday, July 28.
• 42:34
  That's because of that Sunday, Raynard double header you'll recollect.
• 42:41
  Pitch is high outside, ball one.
• 42:47
  Back from July 22 through August 4, two weeks the Yankees will be home top of it at that time.
• 42:53
  21 open day in there now.
• 42:56
  Going on, ground down to short, and bounces now, but Boyum jumps up to close the first.
• 43:00
  Boyum's reflexes are amazing.
• 43:04
  The ball was hit promptly, and he was charging it in to play it on the routine hop,
• 43:08
  and suddenly the ball, actually, had kangaroo blood in it.
• 43:11
  It took a good big hop, and Boyum was hesitating.
• 43:14
  I don't see how he did it. He just went right up in here and pulled it down.
• 43:19
  Well, he's thrown out four straight men.
• 43:22
  Now, we have two up and two down, and the hitter is yours.
• 43:29
  And he is remarkable for his eyes and his ability to get it based on balls.
• 43:35
  The fellow who drew the most walks, of course, is Babe Ruth, 2056.
• 43:41
  Ted Williams at the start of this year was second for the 1,943.
• 43:46
  I don't know how many he's gotten this year. Where he's gotten some.
• 43:48
  There's a fastball inside the hip.
• 43:51
  Mel Hatt was third with 1,708, and Yost stands fourth all time with 1,547.
• 43:58
  Gary gets fifth, 1,510.
• 44:02
  1,050 is one long grounded foul outside third. It made the third base coach, Billy Hitchcock, move.
• 44:07
  But I would contend that Yost's record is much more remarkable than that of the other four,
• 44:11
  because they were all sluggers.
• 44:13
  Ruth, Williams, Geregg, and of course, the big men in the air walks who just didn't want to pitch to him.
• 44:19
  But nobody has been not wanting to pitch to Yost. He's had to earn his.
• 44:25
  1,150, go outside, ball two.
• 44:28
  I know that when Eddie Stanky set the National League record for the most walks in the state,
• 44:34
  he worked to do that. He had to work to get the walk.
• 44:42
  I know he would just go up there and take two strikes and then foul off pitches.
• 44:47
  There's a high foul ball deep back at third. Let's see. It's coming out of right into the fan.
• 44:54
  I know that he got so in the league with Stanky that the pitchers bitterly resented their walking.
• 45:02
  And they'd do anything in their world they could not to walk.
• 45:05
  And he still set the record, 148 for that league.
• 45:08
  Set the record for the most walks in the season, set by Ruth, of course.
• 45:17
  Two balls, two strikes. Two outs.
• 45:25
  Ruth's record total for one year on bases on balls is 170.
• 45:34
  Right into, actually when you think of a set of statistics, you've got to interpret them.
• 45:44
  Big two pitchers on there, there's a high foul ball deep out to that field.
• 45:47
  Lopez is going back to the wall and he's trying to, but he can't catch it.
• 45:52
  He can't catch it. It's a home run.
• 46:00
  Yes, got it in the left field field. And this is the first hit off, Kelly, on the first run.
• 46:04
  And it's now a 3-1 ball game.
• 46:11
  And Lopez made a desperate attempt. He went over and Leith retuned it, but the ball was too high.
• 46:21
  Well, here we go. So the torch starts dancing back.
• 46:24
  Now we have Frank Bowling.
• 46:26
  He puts a third strike in the first inning.
• 46:33
  Makes a full try ball for a tall strike.
• 46:43
  Nothing in one.
• 46:49
  Big Kelly deals.
• 46:50
  Curves one on. The ball is hit by the left field line and it is called foul.
• 46:54
  But that's what the dish.
• 46:57
  Well, well, well.
• 47:03
  Nothing in two.
• 47:15
  No ball, two strikes.
• 47:19
  Two down.
• 47:21
  High inside curve is all one.
• 47:44
  Curve outside.
• 48:03
  That ball is rounded down to third to McDougall.
• 48:06
  That's the goal of the move.
• 48:08
  And that's the side.
• 48:11
  One run, one hit, the old home run and the score at the end of two and a half innings.
• 48:17
  The Yankees three and the Tigers one.
• 48:20
  Field McDougall just hit him away.
• 48:25
  Doubled in the first inning. He had a pinch of double and a ninth inning triple yesterday.
• 48:31
  Takes a curve in for a strike.
• 48:34
  Well, we've got the news for you that just came in about the disposition that will have to be made Friday night.
• 48:41
  It was rained out here.
• 48:42
  Remember when it rained all afternoon and evening?
• 48:45
  No chance to play.
• 48:48
  Macduffers swings that line the ball into the left field for a clean single.
• 48:54
  Well, well, well.
• 48:56
  I guess Gale is just telling everybody that he didn't like it on the bench.
• 49:01
  He's four for five.
• 49:04
  Since he got left loose.
• 49:16
  Detroit comes in here for a night game on Monday, August the 1st.
• 49:22
  An afternoon game on Tuesday, August the 2nd and a night game on Wednesday, August the 3rd.
• 49:28
  Here's Howard.
• 49:32
  Curve inside for one.
• 49:34
  So a nice rained out game has got to be put in on Tuesday night, August the 2nd.
• 49:39
  So there'll be the regular afternoon game.
• 49:41
  Then as a metallic peppered ball game, there'll be a night game.
• 49:46
  So what that series will be the 1st of August is three night games and an afternoon game.
• 49:50
  Howard's swing hits the ball out to left field.
• 49:52
  Charlie McFarlane makes the grab and we have one out.
• 49:58
  So you got that all straight.
• 50:02
  You can have a schedule.
• 50:03
  Just simply add to it a night game Tuesday with Detroit August the 2nd.
• 50:10
  So there'll be four ball games.
• 50:11
  There's another double header on the 2nd.
• 50:13
  An afternoon game at 2 p.m. and a night game at 8.
• 50:19
  Two separate admissions.
• 50:23
  And here's Boyer who hit a ground ball in the 1st inning that Yost Aradon had let in the 3rd run to the Yankees.
• 50:29
  They lead 3 to 1.
• 50:31
  Martin Texas runs it to two and Boyer hits a fly ball out close to the right field line.
• 50:36
  Calivator is hiding it.
• 50:37
  He's under it.
• 50:38
  He has it.
• 50:40
  Now he hits two down and the 5th is Charlie.
• 50:45
  Racing from the Yankee dugout, Martin up towards the plate.
• 50:49
  Gets his bat from the on deck hitter who was out there for him, Richardson.
• 50:55
  Bob gets the big hand.
• 50:58
  Charlie swings it to high fly.
• 51:00
  That's the 3rd base when he's under.
• 51:03
  And Yost makes the cut and that's it.
• 51:07
  No runs, one hit.
• 51:10
  So the total is at the end of three innings.
• 51:13
  Three runs, six hits, no errors for New York.
• 51:15
  One run, one hit and one error for Detroit.
• 51:21
  Now we've got Mr. Regiddo moving in here.
• 51:27
  Right there on the 2nd inning he saw a little infielding didn't he?
• 51:30
  Oh that kid Boyer, it just looks like any place you put him he can do the job.
• 51:37
  That goes with all the Yankee ballplayers.
• 51:39
  Charlie 4-4 Maxwell who walked in the first inning leading off for Detroit here on the top of the 4th with New York leading 3-1.
• 51:47
  WLKO Albany.
• 51:49
  Now swings into the windup.
• 51:53
  The pitch to Maxwell is hit on the ground on the right side.
• 51:55
  Garand's up with it.
• 51:56
  Flips underhand and Charlie covering in time to retire Maxwell.
• 51:59
  It's one away.
• 52:03
  Brings up Norm Cash who was called out on strikes in the first inning.
• 52:09
  On deck Rocky Colavito.
• 52:23
  One out, nobody on top of the 4th.
• 52:26
  Yankees 3, Detroit 1.
• 52:34
  Up 10 hitting first baseman Norm Cash ready.
• 52:36
  Takes the pitch low, ball 1.
• 52:51
  Charlie's 1-0 delivery is low inside ball 2, 2-0. Cash reaches down for some dirt.
• 53:04
  Bob Charlie out on the mound, he's won his last five straight games.
• 53:15
  2-0 pitch high outside ball 3.
• 53:24
  Elston Howard rubs up the ball before firing it back to Charlie.
• 53:28
  Yogi Berrett sitting out the first game.
• 53:40
  Charlie takes that big deep breath before releasing the pitch.
• 53:43
  Here's a 3-0 delivery. It's high for ball 4.
• 53:48
  That's the second walk given up by Charlie and here's Rocky Colavito.
• 53:52
  Rocky was thrown out on a fine fielding play by Bobby Richardson in the second inning.
• 53:57
  He tapped one over Charlie's head and Bobby coming in on the dead run through across his body as only he can, just nipping Colavito.
• 54:05
  Rocky argued a little bit on the play.
• 54:08
  He's turned in for Rocky's brother Dominic outside the ball park and he's built even more powerfully than Colavito, who is quite a ball player in his own right and has quite an influence on Rocky.
• 54:25
  Cash leading off for a scour and holding him on. Here's the stretch by Charlie.
• 54:29
  Popped in the air in short right field. Richardson's moving back for it. Under it and he's got it. 2-way.
• 54:39
  Colavito trying to go to the opposite field.
• 54:42
  Here's Al Kailin who was thrown out on a nice play by Cletus Boyer in the second inning.
• 54:48
  Boyer playing shortstop in place of Tony Kubek today.
• 54:51
  This is the first game that Kubek has not started all year.
• 55:04
  Kubek is the only Yankee ball player who has been in every game up till today.
• 55:11
  2-out, 3-1 the Yankees lead.
• 55:13
  2-K line is a curve over, strike one call. Beautiful change up curve ball.
• 55:26
  K-line came into this game batting 234.
• 55:35
  Charlie set.
• 55:37
  Fastball is low, gets by Howard. There goes Cash down to second base.
• 55:41
  That ball hit in the dirt in front of Howard.
• 55:44
  It's a wild pitch charged to Bob Charlie.
• 55:47
  Cash advances to second base. A one-on-one count on Al Kailin.
• 55:51
  And it looked like Bob tried to put a little extra on that fastball and got away from him.
• 56:01
  Al Kailin has a lifetime batting average of 311 up till this year.
• 56:07
  That's why every time we look at that batting average of the 230s it's hard to believe.
• 56:13
  Here's Charlie's pitch. Curve ball, line of left field, a base hit.
• 56:16
  Here comes Cash around third and Lopez's throw comes in at second base.
• 56:20
  It's a 3-2 ball game.
• 56:29
  So the wild pitch was costly to Charlie.
• 56:32
  Letting Cash get in scoring position down at second base and then he hung a high curve ball
• 56:36
  at Kailin and he ripped the single of left field.
• 56:40
  For Kailin, his 29th run batted in on the air.
• 56:42
  It's a 3-2 ball game with two out the bat of Chico Fernandez who bounced to the shortstop in the second inning.
• 56:55
  On deck, Red Wilson.
• 57:01
  Kailin leading off first.
• 57:04
  There goes Kailin, a pitch high inside to throw to second.
• 57:07
  Kailin is long enough. He goes back to first and he tags out.
• 57:12
  That play going from 2 to 4 to 3.
• 57:22
  Kailin went halfway down. How his throw had him beat.
• 57:25
  So Kailin tried to get back to first but Richardson throw to Garand, put the tag on him.
• 57:29
  4 to Troyd in the top of the fourth inning, one run on one base hit.
• 57:34
  No Yankees errors and nobody left to score at the end of the 3-1 half inning.
• 57:37
  The Yankees 3, the Tigers 2.
• 57:45
  In the bottom of the fourth inning, Bobby Richardson leading off for the third time in the ball game will be the batter.
• 57:50
  Bobby popped to first and single is center field.
• 57:55
  Richardson has now hit an eighth consecutive ball game as has Bill Garand.
• 58:01
  Watch his curve ball is popped to center field. Al Kailin moving in under it and makes the catch one away.
• 58:12
  Brings up Hector Lopez who has not been up officially as yet.
• 58:15
  He walked in the first inning and scored and sacrificed successfully in the second inning.
• 58:27
  One on, nobody on. 3-2, the Yankees lead the Tigers.
• 58:34
  Hector Lopez fastball line to left center field of eight hits.
• 58:38
  Kailin digging fast over to his right.
• 58:40
  Stop with the Lopez around first, starts for second and ends, starts back and the throw is too late.
• 58:45
  Hector was well on his way to going, suddenly realized he couldn't make it.
• 58:49
  He should have seen him put on the brakes and start back.
• 58:52
  It looked like he was running in one spot for about ten seconds but he made it.
• 59:07
  Brings up Roger Maris who is open to pop the second base ball out to the catcher.
• 59:15
  One away, Lopez leads off first. The pitch is a curve over, strike one, call.
• 59:21
  Yankees have seven base hits off down Marcy.
• 59:32
  Left hander stretches, once again the stretch position by Marcy.
• 59:38
  Pitch is hit on the ground at second base, balling up with it over to second for one.
• 59:42
  Back to first, not in time.
• 59:44
  And that was a fine play by Frank Bowling on a wicked hop.
• 59:49
  They got Lopez but they couldn't get Maris.
• 59:53
  And here comes Mickey Mantle.
• 59:56
  With Maris at first and two out, Mantle is two for two, single of center.
• 1:00:00
  Go out in the first inning and beat out an infield single in the second.
• 1:00:05
  Pitch to Mickey is just outside ball one.
• 1:00:10
  On deck, Bill Scharer.
• 1:00:27
  Throw to first base, Maris back in plenty of time.
• 1:00:36
  Time call while Mantle drives off his hands.
• 1:00:42
  Holding that bat right down on the end, batting right handed.
• 1:00:47
  Jump outside, ball two, two and nothing.
• 1:01:11
  Maris with a short lead off first base.
• 1:01:14
  Two nothing pitch is over, strike one.
• 1:01:18
  Looks like a screw-jee, a screwball.
• 1:01:22
  Wasn't throwing up there too fast.
• 1:01:26
  Two and one on Mantle.
• 1:01:42
  One pitch is top ball and going out of play,
• 1:01:46
  Cash chasing it to the box piece but it goes back about five or six rows.
• 1:01:53
  Two balls, two strikes, two outs. Mickey Mantle to bat.
• 1:02:17
  John Marcy who holds a 12-9 lifetime edge over New York, got a 5-5 record this year.
• 1:02:25
  Here's a stretch by the left-hander.
• 1:02:30
  A 2-2 pitch is outside ball three, both out on Mickey so Maris will be off.
• 1:02:36
  Two men out and three and two on the bat.
• 1:02:51
  Yankees three, Detroit two, here in the bottom of the fourth inning.
• 1:02:56
  Ready now for the payoff pitch to Mickey. Here it is and it strikes a swingy one after a high curve ball.
• 1:03:06
  Four New York in the bottom of the fourth inning, no runs on one base hit.
• 1:03:11
  No Detroit errors and one man left. A score at the end of fourth inning.
• 1:03:16
  New York three runs, seven hits, no errors. Detroit two runs, two hits, one error. We pause for station identification.
• 1:03:23
  The UOKO Albany three twenty-seven.
• 1:03:27
  Right now I'd like to mention that the second half of this game is being brought to you by Ballantine Al.
• 1:03:32
  The only Al that gives you the big, big case that comes from Brewer's Goal.
• 1:03:36
  Here's Chico Fernandez who was at bat when Al Kaelin was picked off attempting to steal.
• 1:03:42
  Then the top of the fourth. Fernandez bounced to the shortstop in the second inning.
• 1:03:53
  Right hand hitting shortstop. McGoogle in at third. Here's the pitch by Charlie. It's lined to left field, a base hit.
• 1:03:59
  Lopez over to his right, up with it. Fernandez is on with a line, single or left.
• 1:04:05
  That's hit number three off Charlie.
• 1:04:09
  That brings up the catcher, Ed Wilton, who was thrown out by Boya in the third inning.
• 1:04:15
  That one time Boya had four consecutive assists.
• 1:04:25
  Yankees three, Detroit two, around the top of the fifth inning.
• 1:04:42
  The stretch by Charlie, and then he steps off the mound, keeping an eye on Fernandez who has six stolen bases this year. Top of the Tigers in that department.
• 1:05:00
  Here's the stretch. The pitch is bounced. No, it gets away from Howard. There goes Fernandez to second. He's around second.
• 1:05:07
  Wait a minute now. Wilton says he didn't foul the ball. Here comes Jimmy Dyke. Elton Howard went after the ball as though it did not foul.
• 1:05:15
  Ellie thought that it was a pass ball, started to charge back. Fernandez was going the third base.
• 1:05:21
  And then Ellie suddenly stopped, played up by Bill McKinley, said it was a foul ball. And Jimmy Dyke is out there arguing with McKinley.
• 1:05:28
  And Red Wilson is saying he did not foul the ball. And look at Dyke.
• 1:05:34
  And you can see why Dyke is mad after losing that ball game yesterday. Things have been going against him.
• 1:05:41
  And Dyke is pointing to Howard, and you can see what he's saying. Howard didn't think it was a foul ball. How come you did?
• 1:05:47
  Red Wilson and Jimmy Dyke, jaw to jaw with Bill McKinley. And they're going to lose this argument, that's for sure.
• 1:06:05
  It looked like a foul tip until Howard threw off his mask and started to charge back after the ball.
• 1:06:12
  And then as Ellie got halfway down, and I think he put Dyke out of the game, it looked like McKinley waved Jimmy Dyke out of the ball game.
• 1:06:25
  And they are really arguing down there. And McKinley is pointing to the dugout for Jimmy Dyke.
• 1:06:33
  As soon as we get word on whether Dyke was going out or not, we'll let you know.
• 1:06:39
  Now it looks like Jimmy's still in the game. He's standing on the top step of the dugout.
• 1:06:46
  But we'll wait and see.
• 1:06:50
  It's a strike on Red Wilson. A little bit of a rhubarb here. A very unusual play. We haven't seen that very often.
• 1:06:59
  Fairly into the stretch position.
• 1:07:02
  And steps off the mound. They're trying to get Fernandez to commit himself.
• 1:07:07
  A lot of the fans yelling balk, but anytime the pitcher steps back off the mound, he's not any trouble.
• 1:07:19
  Once again, Fairly gets set.
• 1:07:23
  The pitch is popped in the air outside of third. McGoogle moving over near the stand.
• 1:07:28
  And he can't quite get it. He got it! Holy cow, what a catch!
• 1:07:34
  McGoogle was leaning on the rail with his stomach, both feet off the ground, parallel to the ground.
• 1:07:43
  And we saw a lot of fans stick their hands up and then never saw the ball.
• 1:07:47
  And it looked like Gill couldn't possibly have gotten it. But he came out of there with third base umpire.
• 1:07:52
  John Stevens right on his neck and he saw that Gill had made the catch. Wilson is out of there.
• 1:07:57
  A fine play by McGoogle.
• 1:08:01
  One away.
• 1:08:06
  Brings up the pitcher Don Marci who bounced to the shortstop in the third inning.
• 1:08:09
  Now McGoogle comes in looking for the possible sacrifice.
• 1:08:13
  Torrance holding first against Chico. Here's the stretch by Fairly.
• 1:08:18
  Fairly steps off the rubber again and Marci steps out of the batter's box.
• 1:08:28
  Fairly ready again.
• 1:08:31
  Pitch is funded. A good one. Skaren is up with it. Runs to first base for the unassisted put out.
• 1:08:38
  Going down to second base, Chico Fernandez.
• 1:08:45
  And that time if Skaren was charging in he could have caught that ball on the fly.
• 1:08:49
  Usually when Moose is expecting a body he comes charging in.
• 1:08:53
  The ball was funded in the air. It took one hop. The Moose picked it up.
• 1:08:57
  Steps on the bag. Moving to second. Fernandez the tying run at second base.
• 1:09:01
  And here's Eddie Yoast who struck out in Homer's.
• 1:09:05
  His fourth home of the year and his fourteenth run battered in.
• 1:09:08
  Last year his first with Detroit. Yoast got off to a tremendous start.
• 1:09:13
  He had about 15-16 homers this time of the year.
• 1:09:23
  Fernandez leads off second. Fairly set.
• 1:09:26
  Curve is a little bit low. Ball one.
• 1:09:35
  Yankees started out this ball game just the way they left off yesterday.
• 1:09:38
  They scored three runs in the bottom of the ninth to win it.
• 1:09:40
  They scored three times in the bottom of the first.
• 1:09:43
  But since then Moci has settled down.
• 1:09:46
  New York leads 3-2 here in the top of the fifth.
• 1:09:54
  Fish high inside ball two. Two and nothing.
• 1:10:15
  Frank Boling is on deck.
• 1:10:22
  Charlie are cutting him back off. Fernandez and Charlie steps off the rubber.
• 1:10:26
  So that Cletus can get back to his position.
• 1:10:36
  All right now the stretch by Charlie. Richardson bluffing Fernandez back at second.
• 1:10:41
  Fits at the curve outside ball three. Three and nothing.
• 1:11:02
  Charlie stretches.
• 1:11:13
  The three and nothing fish high inside ball four.
• 1:11:16
  And Eddie Yoast gets his 70th walk of the year.
• 1:11:19
  70 base on balls this year for Eddie Yoast.
• 1:11:23
  And he's always amongst the league leaders.
• 1:11:26
  If not leading the league in base on balls year after year.
• 1:11:29
  Yoast is at first. Fernandez is at second.
• 1:11:32
  Frank Boling who's struck out and bounced to third the batter.
• 1:11:36
  On deck Charlie Maxwell.
• 1:11:51
  All right Charlie into his stretch position.
• 1:11:55
  Fits to Boling as the curve flung at him and missed strike one.
• 1:12:02
  Charlie goes back to the rosin bag.
• 1:12:06
  Mantle not playing too deep in center nor is Maris in right.
• 1:12:11
  Mopet's fairly deep in left field.
• 1:12:15
  And the infield playing way back.
• 1:12:22
  Charlie looks back at Fernandez. Another curve is hit deep to left field.
• 1:12:27
  Way back there.
• 1:12:29
  And it's a home run for Boling.
• 1:12:35
  Frank Boling hits a three run homo with two out and Detroit takes the lead five to three.
• 1:12:40
  For Boling his fifth home of the year.
• 1:12:43
  And it gives him a total of 30 runs batted in this year.
• 1:12:50
  Charlie looking a little dejected out on the mound.
• 1:12:55
  Charlie Maxwell will walk and bounce to first the batter.
• 1:13:02
  Fits to Maxwell.
• 1:13:04
  He's off to short center field rather than short.
• 1:13:06
  The boy had trouble in the sun. He makes the catch.
• 1:13:09
  He hit that right off the end of his bat.
• 1:13:12
  And had a field that's kind of sideways with the sun right in his eyes.
• 1:13:17
  So Detroit bounces back with three big runs here in the top of the fifth.
• 1:13:21
  On two base hits no Yankee errors and nobody left to score.
• 1:13:24
  At the end of four and a half innings Detroit five and the Yankees three.
• 1:13:36
  There's a baseball cap and a glove lying out on the field.
• 1:13:48
  Nobody's moving out there to get it.
• 1:13:51
  Chico Fernandez is not out of his position so it's probably there.
• 1:13:54
  It's Chico's hat and glove.
• 1:13:55
  Now he picks it up on the way out to his position.
• 1:13:59
  Bill Scorin who's singled and flying to right field leads off to New York here on the bottom of the fifth inning.
• 1:14:04
  Now the Yankees are two runs behind.
• 1:14:15
  Scorin has an eight game hitting streak going.
• 1:14:22
  Hits to the moose is in there strike one call.
• 1:14:26
  Yankees had Mossy on the ropes in the first inning.
• 1:14:30
  One more base hit and he might have been out of there.
• 1:14:33
  Nine men went to bat and they fought three times but he settled down.
• 1:14:37
  There's a curve foul at the plate strike two.
• 1:15:01
  Nothing into one scour the pitch inside for one.
• 1:15:08
  On deck Gail McGoogle.
• 1:15:26
  One ball two strike pitch curve foul out of play.
• 1:15:34
  No they have to give Bob Delaney another error and I'll have to check over there with the official score.
• 1:15:50
  Mossy into the windup. Pitch is foul back out of play.
• 1:15:59
  One ball two strikes.
• 1:16:16
  Pitch is a little low ball two two and two.
• 1:16:30
  Mossy turns around to rub up the ball.
• 1:16:34
  He's thrown a lot of pitches to the moose and the three times that scour has been to the plate.
• 1:16:41
  Two pitch curve hits to left field Maxwell moving under it and he's got it.
• 1:16:46
  Garen hits the ball right on the nose.
• 1:16:49
  Go ahead and get it up in the air enough.
• 1:16:51
  Garen only needs one more home and I have a hundred.
• 1:16:54
  Major League home run one away.
• 1:16:57
  Gail McGoogle who doubled and single.
• 1:16:59
  Gail is driven in one run.
• 1:17:02
  Now it looks like the rest has helped Gail.
• 1:17:06
  He's been hitting the ball hard and pinch hitting rolls and today starting.
• 1:17:12
  First pitcher McGoogle is in there strike one call.
• 1:17:30
  One strike pitch low outside ball one.
• 1:17:33
  This is Gail's first time since June the sixth.
• 1:17:39
  Elton Howard on deck.
• 1:17:50
  One one pitch strike call on the outside corner one ball two strikes.
• 1:18:15
  Now the pitch curve strike three swing.
• 1:18:23
  McGoogle goes down on strike.
• 1:18:28
  That's the second strikeout for Marcy in the ballgame.
• 1:18:30
  Got the medal in the fourth inning.
• 1:18:32
  Here is Elton Howard who walks and flying to left field.
• 1:18:36
  Detroit five the Yankees three were in the bottom of the fifth inning.
• 1:18:44
  Marcy's pitch is low ball one.
• 1:19:07
  One nothing pitch is hit high in the air to left center field.
• 1:19:15
  K-line going back under it and has it for another three.
• 1:19:19
  And the Yankees go down one two three for the first time in the ballgame against Marcy.
• 1:19:23
  Nothing of course in the bottom of the fifth to score at the end of five full innings.
• 1:19:27
  Detroit five and the Yankees three.
• 1:19:30
  Norm Cash who walked in the fourth inning and scored struck out in the first inning leading off here in the top of the sixth.
• 1:19:36
  Detroit leading this ballgame five three.
• 1:19:40
  Charlie pitch is low ball one.
• 1:19:42
  Another big ballgame to go here at Yankee Stadium.
• 1:19:52
  Charlie flips the ball into McKinley who looks it over.
• 1:19:58
  K-line has nothing wrong with it and throws it back to Bob. Norm Cash had to ask the umpire to look at it.
• 1:20:12
  One nothing pitch outside ball two.
• 1:20:31
  Here's the two nothing delivery a foul back in the upper deck out of play.
• 1:20:39
  Two balls one strike.
• 1:20:53
  Charlie swings into the windup.
• 1:20:55
  That's all foul. I was chasing it but that ball is coming back on the screen and out of play.
• 1:21:10
  Charlie's two two pitch curve ball.
• 1:21:25
  Line to right center field. Marist going and it's off the wall.
• 1:21:30
  Cash thought it was a home run and had started to touch and has to go fast to get into second base.
• 1:21:36
  Norm Cash thought that ball was a home run.
• 1:21:42
  And the ball just missed going into the bleachers heading off the auxiliary scoreboard in right center field.
• 1:21:51
  Maybe it was the way Marist played the ball or maybe Cash thought he hit it higher than he actually did.
• 1:21:57
  But he started into his home run shot down to first base and then suddenly realized he had a seam in a second.
• 1:22:04
  For Cash's seventh double of the year.
• 1:22:07
  Brings up Rocky Colabito bounce to second and pops to second.
• 1:22:16
  The joy's five New York three top of the sixth.
• 1:22:26
  Charlie's pitch side on fastball pops up in the air to the right side. Richardson back.
• 1:22:30
  Marist coming in Richardson calling for it and he's got it.
• 1:22:35
  And all three times Colabito has hit to the second baseman one grounder to fly balls.
• 1:22:40
  Here's Al Kailine bounce the short single left as driven in one run.
• 1:22:57
  Now is out to the mound talking with Charlie.
• 1:23:07
  Bobby Chance and Johnny Gabler are up in the Yankee bullpen.
• 1:23:21
  Charlie ready for his first pitch to Kailine. Fastball is low ball one.
• 1:23:45
  One ball no strikes on Kailine. Cash leads off second.
• 1:23:49
  Pitch is popped in the air to short left field.
• 1:23:53
  Exelope is moving in under it.
• 1:23:56
  He's got it. That's two way.
• 1:23:59
  Brings up Chico Fernandez bounce the short single left. He scored in the fifth inning.
• 1:24:04
  He was on base when Frank Bowling hit the free run homer.
• 1:24:09
  Eddie Oates homer in the third inning.
• 1:24:17
  Five three Detroit lead two outs cash down at second.
• 1:24:34
  And the ball clearly started to deliver the pitch and it slipped out of his hand.
• 1:24:38
  Boy that's the first time we've seen that in a long long time.
• 1:24:43
  He had kicked his left leg and was ready to deliver the pitch.
• 1:24:48
  When it slipped out of his hand and rolled about six feet in back of the mound.
• 1:24:52
  Cash moves to third on the ball.
• 1:25:03
  Now Charlie will fish with his wind up motion.
• 1:25:10
  He's taking no chances not playing too deep at third.
• 1:25:14
  Slow curve is over strike one call.
• 1:25:23
  Chico's a pretty good runner.
• 1:25:30
  Fairly into the wind up.
• 1:25:33
  Third outside the ball one one one.
• 1:25:52
  One ball one strike two outs.
• 1:25:56
  That's for the line at center field Mickey Maddler right there makes the catch.
• 1:26:04
  Four Detroit in the top of the sixth one no runs on one hit.
• 1:26:08
  No Yankee errors one man left the score at the end of the five and a half inning.
• 1:26:12
  Detroit five and the Yankees three.
• 1:26:19
  They've got that big day.
• 1:26:31
  Next time you're in the mood to enjoy good food enjoy it even more with a refreshing glass of Valentine.
• 1:26:37
  You know more than a third question.
• 1:26:39
  Different than any beer.
• 1:26:40
  Valentine has a big big taste that really goes over big with food.
• 1:26:45
  A big big taste that comes from Brewer's Gold.
• 1:26:50
  Try Valentine ale with any meal.
• 1:26:51
  See what a difference an ale makes.
• 1:26:59
  Special right now.
• 1:27:19
  In the bottom of the sixth inning, Cletus Boyer, due to lead off for the Yankees, took
• 1:27:38
  a little bit of time coming out of the dugout, thought for a minute that Casey might be pinch
• 1:27:43
  hitting for him.
• 1:27:44
  Boyer reached on an error in the first inning and flying to right field and a serve.
• 1:27:47
  The Yankees trailing by two, five to three.
• 1:27:50
  In the bottom of the sixth, Charlie due to be the next hitter, but we have action in
• 1:27:54
  the Yankee both ends.
• 1:27:55
  Don Mossy out on the mound, the left hander swings into the wind up.
• 1:28:02
  Mr. Boyer is a curve foul down the left field line out of play, strike one.
• 1:28:25
  One strike hit is fouled in the upper deck and back of first base, strike two.
• 1:28:43
  Nothing in two on Boyer.
• 1:28:52
  The wind up and a fastball is inside, almost hit him, ball one.
• 1:29:08
  One ball, two strikes.
• 1:29:09
  Nobody out, nobody on.
• 1:29:10
  There's the pitch.
• 1:29:11
  It's lined up, center field, a base hit, maybe extra bases.
• 1:29:12
  Maxwell backhands the ball and Boyer's on with a long, single or left hander.
• 1:29:13
  Maxwell got over there real fast to keep that ball from going up the alley for two and possibly
• 1:29:30
  three bases.
• 1:29:31
  That's hit number eight off Mossy and let's see who's coming out.
• 1:29:36
  Bob Derv is coming out to bat for Caroling.
• 1:29:44
  Derv batting 253, has three doubles, a triple, eight homers and 21 runs batted in.
• 1:29:54
  He's been getting on bases of pinch hitter lately.
• 1:29:57
  Base on balls, base hit.
• 1:30:02
  Boyer's serve is really built like an old oak tree, I'll tell you.
• 1:30:15
  He is solid.
• 1:30:16
  Full back hitter made in football.
• 1:30:21
  Cash holds first against Boyer.
• 1:30:26
  Here's the stretch.
• 1:30:27
  The pitch to serve is outside ball one.
• 1:30:36
  The stretch by the left hander.
• 1:30:48
  Pitch is over.
• 1:30:49
  Ball one on one on deck, Bobby Richardson.
• 1:31:00
  Mossy kicking around out of the mound.
• 1:31:05
  Pitch is up his belt.
• 1:31:12
  The pitch is a curve a little bit high, ball two, two more on it.
• 1:31:28
  Two balls, one strike.
• 1:31:38
  Boyer leads off first.
• 1:31:39
  Here's the stretch.
• 1:31:40
  Pitch is high, ball three, three and one.
• 1:31:45
  And Mossy's walking in off the mound and Wilson not too happy with the curve.
• 1:31:57
  McKinley motions that the pitch was high.
• 1:32:03
  Detroit bench getting on McKinley a little bit.
• 1:32:05
  Three balls, one strike.
• 1:32:07
  Five-three, the Tigers lead here in the bottom of the sixth.
• 1:32:23
  Mossy looks in for the sign from Wilson.
• 1:32:24
  There goes Boyer.
• 1:32:25
  The pitch is going in and missed.
• 1:32:26
  A throw to second and he takes a second.
• 1:32:27
  The ball goes in the center field.
• 1:32:28
  Boyer goes to third.
• 1:32:29
  That'll be a total of six.
• 1:32:30
  A stolen base for Cletus Boyer and an error on the throw by Red Wilson, allowing Boyer
• 1:32:48
  to go to third.
• 1:32:49
  Third swung at the pitch and missed.
• 1:32:50
  Boyer had a good job.
• 1:32:51
  Wilson took a lot of time getting rid of the ball, threw it in the third, bowling, trying
• 1:32:56
  to get the ball on a short hop.
• 1:32:59
  It went off his glove and stopped halfway out the center field.
• 1:33:02
  Cletus Boyer easily got upstormed in the third.
• 1:33:05
  And now we have a full count on Bob Serve with nobody out.
• 1:33:10
  Detroit leading five-three.
• 1:33:11
  Cletus Boyer over third.
• 1:33:12
  The infield is back.
• 1:33:13
  Boyer's first stolen base of the year.
• 1:33:14
  Here's the payoff pitch.
• 1:33:15
  A high pop up to the right side in foul territory.
• 1:33:16
  Norm Kess coming in front of the Yankee dugout.
• 1:33:17
  And he's got it.
• 1:33:30
  And Serve bangs the bat down on the ground as he fouls out to the first baseman.
• 1:33:37
  One away that brings up Bobby Richardson.
• 1:33:39
  Bobby pops the first, singled and lying in the center.
• 1:33:44
  And remember with Richardson's clutch, two-out single that tied the score in yesterday's
• 1:33:48
  ball game in the bottom of the ninth.
• 1:33:51
  Now, Yost moves in at third.
• 1:33:54
  Cash moves in at first.
• 1:33:55
  And the infield moves in halfway.
• 1:33:57
  Fernandez is short and bowling at second.
• 1:34:00
  And of course they've got to be on the alert for possible squeeze plays.
• 1:34:14
  Here's the wind up by Marcy.
• 1:34:16
  The pitch is taken low.
• 1:34:17
  Ball one and Bobby walked up his own to bump that ball.
• 1:34:22
  The suicide squeeze sure enough wasn't on because Boya didn't break from third.
• 1:34:44
  The one-nothing pitch is a curve that's low.
• 1:35:07
  Ball two, two-nothing.
• 1:35:08
  Now the Tiger infield comes in a little more.
• 1:35:09
  They figure with the two-nothing count, this might be the time to put the squeeze on.
• 1:35:11
  Here's the wind up.
• 1:35:12
  The pitch is over, strike 12.
• 1:35:15
  Two-and-one the count.
• 1:35:27
  Axel Osez in the on deck circle.
• 1:35:36
  Here's the wind up.
• 1:35:38
  The pitch is strike two on the outside corner, and Osez hit the end of the bat.
• 1:35:42
  As McKinley makes the foul-tip sign, rubbing his two hands together.
• 1:35:49
  He called it a strike and then made the motion.
• 1:35:51
  Two-and-two on Richardson.
• 1:36:03
  The lead is Boya at third base with Wilde. Yankees trailing 5-3.
• 1:36:08
  The wind up.
• 1:36:09
  The pitch is inside.
• 1:36:13
  And Wilson and Mawthee arguing a little on that play.
• 1:36:16
  A mighty close pitch.
• 1:36:17
  Bobby started to swing at it.
• 1:36:19
  Checked it.
• 1:36:23
  The count on Richardson, three-and-two.
• 1:36:43
  Now the payoff pitch.
• 1:36:45
  Curves popped in the air to left field.
• 1:36:48
  Not too deep, but Boya is tagging.
• 1:36:50
  Maxwell's under it.
• 1:36:51
  Makes the catch.
• 1:36:52
  Here comes the throw.
• 1:36:53
  He flies and he's in there with a perfect throw.
• 1:36:57
  A one hopper.
• 1:36:58
  A perfect throw to Wilson, but Boya beat the tag.
• 1:37:01
  He slid underneath it.
• 1:37:04
  Bobby Richardson's sacrifice slide.
• 1:37:06
  A not too deep left field brings in Cletus Boya.
• 1:37:11
  And it's now a 5-4 ball game with two out in the bottom of the sixth in the batter, Hector Osez, who has walked, sacrificed, and singled, one for one.
• 1:37:21
  No destroying error by Red Wilson.
• 1:37:24
  Gives the Yankees a break.
• 1:37:34
  Two out.
• 1:37:39
  Hector is lying to right field.
• 1:37:41
  That's in there for face-in.
• 1:37:43
  Alivito's up with it.
• 1:37:45
  And Hector Lopez lines the single to right field.
• 1:37:54
  W-O-K-O Albany.
• 1:37:58
  And that big round of applause for Roger Maris.
• 1:38:03
  Although Roger is 0-3 today, pops a second, fouled out to the catcher, and hit into a fourth place.
• 1:38:11
  He's been the big man for the Yankees this year.
• 1:38:15
  And the fans appreciate the fact.
• 1:38:19
  Two out.
• 1:38:20
  Lopez is second.
• 1:38:24
  Roger Lopez is first base.
• 1:38:27
  Hector Maris is outside for one.
• 1:38:30
  When Hector's got that right field stroke, there's nobody that can hit the ball there better than he can.
• 1:38:36
  On deck, Mickey Mantle.
• 1:38:43
  Getting a little action in the Tiger bullpen now.
• 1:38:47
  Rich Maris outside for two.
• 1:38:49
  Two-nothing.
• 1:38:56
  Hitchers have found out this year that there is no breathing space in this Yankee lineup.
• 1:39:03
  They got a bear down on every hitter.
• 1:39:10
  Two-nothing on Roger.
• 1:39:12
  Mitch is fouled over towards the Yankee dugout.
• 1:39:17
  Two-and-one the count.
• 1:39:30
  Norm Cash asking for time over at first base runs over now to talk with Marci.
• 1:39:48
  Two balls, one strike, two out.
• 1:39:49
  Detroit 5 Yankees 4, bottom of the sixth.
• 1:39:55
  Curve is popped in the air.
• 1:39:57
  The second baseman Frank Balding, moving under it in fair territory, makes the catch.
• 1:40:05
  For the Yankees in the bottom of the sixth, one run on two base hits.
• 1:40:09
  One Tiger error.
• 1:40:11
  One man left the score at the end of sixth full inning.
• 1:40:14
  Detroit 5 runs, five hits, two errors.
• 1:40:16
  New York 4 runs, nine hits, no errors.
• 1:40:18
  And we pause for station identification.
• 1:40:20
  Your station for music, news, and sports, this is Quality Modern WOKO, 1460 on the radio dial.
• 1:40:27
  Eleven minutes after four.
• 1:40:31
  And right now, with Gabler ready to go, and Red Wilson stepping into the bend.
• 1:40:36
  As Bob's ready to go, here's the voice of the Yankees, Mill Allen.
• 1:40:40
  Thanks, Bill. Hello there, everybody.
• 1:40:42
  First of the seventh.
• 1:40:44
  Five to four of the score in favor of the Tigers.
• 1:40:50
  Johnny Gabler in relief for Bob Charlie, ready to pitch to the right-handed batting Red Wilson.
• 1:40:55
  Gabler into the windup, and the pitch is outside, ball one.
• 1:41:00
  Bob Charlie in his sixth inning, so out only five hits, but five runs.
• 1:41:05
  Two of the hits for homers, one with two aboard.
• 1:41:08
  He walked three and struck out three.
• 1:41:13
  And now the pitch is outside, ball two. Two balls, no strikes.
• 1:41:25
  I'd like to remind you that we'll be on the air tomorrow at 1255 from Washington.
• 1:41:31
  The ballgame's been set back a half hour.
• 1:41:36
  Two-nothing pitch now to Wilson. It's in there, strike one, turn one.
• 1:41:59
  Now the delivery. Swung on, there's a looping pop. Richardson goes out for and short right, makes the catch.
• 1:42:06
  One away.
• 1:42:09
  Don Mosse coming up.
• 1:42:13
  He started out shakily in the first inning, but has grown stronger as the game has progressed.
• 1:42:30
  Mosse grounded his short and sacrifice, drowning to Skaren. Gaber's pitch is over for a strike.
• 1:42:50
  One strike delivery. Swung on, there's a fly ball into left. Lopez moves under it, makes the catch.
• 1:42:58
  Two down.
• 1:43:01
  Now Eddie O, who took a third strike, then hit a home run and walked.
• 1:43:13
  It's 5-5, Yankees 4 at the seventh inning.
• 1:43:30
  Gaber to the windup and the pitch. In there, strike one, fast ball, nothing in one.
• 1:43:39
  I feel playing straight away.
• 1:43:46
  Gaber to the windup again, the pitch swung on and missed. Strike two, nothing in two.
• 1:44:02
  Two balls, two strikes, and the pitch. Curve is low for a ball, one and two. Could have been a knucker.
• 1:44:09
  Sometimes it looks like a curve from upstairs by the way it acted the last second.
• 1:44:15
  The knuckleball.
• 1:44:21
  Two pitch, curve outside, 2-2. Hope it'll crossfire in the motion.
• 1:44:41
  Now the 2-2 delivery, swung on, lying down the left field line, and it's in there for extra bases. Bounces into the stands and becomes a ground rule double for Eddie O.
• 1:44:51
  His second hit of the afternoon. Home run a double and three charged at bats, and he walked one.
• 1:44:57
  Here's Frank Bowling who changed the game around with one swipe of the bat.
• 1:45:02
  After striking out in the first inning, rounding the third in the third, he had a three run homer with two out in the fifth inning.
• 1:45:09
  To put the Tigers out in front, five to three. It is now five to four, seven thinnings.
• 1:45:16
  Gaber in replacement of Curley delivers to Bowling, in there for a strike.
• 1:45:24
  Charlie Maxwell on deck.
• 1:45:36
  Gaber to the stretch. Here's the pitch. McAvine inside, one and one. Bowling has to duck away from it.
• 1:46:04
  One ball, one strike. Yost leads off second. The pitch swung on, bounce the third. McDoogle takes it, throws on over to Cowan in time.
• 1:46:16
  And the side's retired. Ball almost took a bad hop on Gill.
• 1:46:22
  Well, it did take a bad hop, but he got his hands over in time to play it.
• 1:46:27
  No runs, one hit, no errors, one left on. Then a six and a half inning. Tigers five, the Yankees four.
• 1:46:35
  You know, you can make tonight's dinner extra special just by pouring yourself a glass of cool, golden, Valentine ale.
• 1:46:43
  When you enjoy Valentine ale as one of your favorite meals, it's big, big taste not only refreshes, satisfies you, it makes the good food you have even more enjoyable.
• 1:46:55
  Remember, friends, only Valentine ale gives you the big, big taste that comes from Brewer's Gold, a rare strain of hops used exclusively in Valentine's own true ale recipe.
• 1:47:08
  And Brewer's Gold is the reason this great ale makes a delicious drink anytime, but tastes extra good at mealtime.
• 1:47:16
  And that's why we say Valentine ale is more than a first-winter, different than any beer.
• 1:47:21
  So why not try the big, big taste with, you know, your lunch, your dinner real soon.
• 1:47:26
  Discover what a difference an ale makes. Valentine ale with Brewer's Gold.
• 1:47:36
  The last half of the seventh inning, five to four in favor of Detroit.
• 1:47:44
  Mickey Mantle batting fourth in the order, first up, Garron on deck and McDougal to follow.
• 1:47:52
  Mantle's had two singles and three trips, struck out his last time up.
• 1:47:58
  Left-hander Don Mosse, been in there all the way for the Tigers, having survived a rough first inning and gave up three runs.
• 1:48:10
  The last and unearned into the windup and the pitch to Mantle inside, ball one.
• 1:48:24
  He crowded him with a fastball.
• 1:48:30
  Jones really guarding that third baseline. Here's the pitch, swung on in mid, back one, one and one.
• 1:48:45
  One-one count.
• 1:48:51
  Lost into the windup and the pitch, swung on, the ground ball hits the short. Fernandez up with it, the throw is into the third and gets away from Cash.
• 1:49:01
  Fernandez had to hurry his throw with Mantle speeding down the line and he's charged with an error.
• 1:49:08
  An error charged to Fernandez on the throw that bounced by Norm Cash.
• 1:49:20
  Mantle seems to have hurt his, re-aggravated his injured right knee, his first time at bat today.
• 1:49:29
  Leaning over there first base, it's been bothering him.
• 1:49:33
  Here's the moose, swing to the center, fly to right and line to left.
• 1:49:38
  Lost into the stretch and the pitch, swung on, little roller, foul off to the left of the plate, strike one.
• 1:49:47
  No balls, one strike.
• 1:50:08
  Five to four Detroit, seven coming. Mossy, text the runner, throw to first, Mantle is back.
• 1:50:19
  Again the stretch and the pitch is outside, ball one, one-and-one.
• 1:50:42
  Mossy again through stretch, the pitch swung on and pops in the air in the very short right bowling out, Colabito in.
• 1:50:51
  Bowling calls for it, makes the catch and Mantle holds up and goes back to first.
• 1:50:57
  Garron pops to bowling in short right.
• 1:51:02
  Gil McDougall, double to right, single to left and struck out.
• 1:51:11
  Elston Howard on deck.
• 1:51:18
  Tigers five, Yankees four, it's the last of the seven.
• 1:51:25
  Don Mossy ready to work.
• 1:51:29
  And the pitch to Gil is over, strike one, nothing in one.
• 1:51:53
  No balls, one strike.
• 1:51:59
  Mossy again to the stretch, Mantle moves off first, the pitch is on it and here comes Yostin Fass.
• 1:52:05
  Fair hands, it throws to first, just in time to get him on a very close play.
• 1:52:10
  A good play by Eddie Yost.
• 1:52:14
  Boy that was a touch and go play at first base.
• 1:52:18
  McDougall is credit with a sacrifice, Eddie Yost just did get him.
• 1:52:22
  Mantle moves to second, two outs and the batter is Elston Howard.
• 1:52:32
  Howard was purposely passed in the first inning, line to left in the third, fly to center in the fifth.
• 1:52:44
  Eddie Yost fair handed that ball as he raced in, scooped it up with a throwing hand and fired
• 1:52:50
  and just got Gil on a bang bang play.
• 1:52:59
  Two outs in the seventh, five for Detroit, Mantle on second, Elston Howard at bat.
• 1:53:04
  Mossy into the stretch and the pitch to Howard, backs him away, it's inside, ball one.
• 1:53:28
  Mantle leads away, Mossy to the stretch, looks around the pitch, it's inside for a ball, two nothing.
• 1:53:41
  Two balls, no strike.
• 1:53:54
  Mossy getting a sign from Red Wilson, Mantle moves off second.
• 1:53:59
  The left hander ready and the pitch is over the outside corner, strike one, two and one.
• 1:54:12
  Mossy working very carefully on Howard, for the tying run in scoring position, two down here in the seventh inning.
• 1:54:21
  The left hander to the stretch, looks over at Mantle, here's the pitch and it's inside for ball three.
• 1:54:27
  Howard had the jackknife there for it being hit by that one.
• 1:54:32
  A three one count.
• 1:54:39
  Three balls, one strike.
• 1:54:48
  Two men out, Mossy into the stretch, Mantle leads off second.
• 1:54:51
  Here's the pitch and Howard swings and bounces it foul down the third base line, Crisetti catching it.
• 1:54:57
  Four count now.
• 1:55:11
  Three balls, two strikes, two outs. He's really been working on that one.
• 1:55:23
  Mossy has his sign, Mantle moves off second.
• 1:55:26
  The stretch, looks around and the three-two pitch, swung on and fouled down the third base line again.
• 1:55:32
  Crisetti taking it, throwing it back to Mossy.
• 1:55:36
  Mossy, Howard and Crisetti have been playing a little game here in the last two pitches.
• 1:55:54
  Three balls, two strikes, two outs. Tigers five, Yankees four, seventh inning.
• 1:56:00
  Mossy ready and the pitch, low and inside for ball four, Howard walks.
• 1:56:08
  And the batter is Cleve Boyer.
• 1:56:12
  Third pass that Mossy has given up.
• 1:56:17
  Boyer was safe on an error, grounding the yokes in the first inning,
• 1:56:21
  tried to right in the third and then singles in the sixth.
• 1:56:50
  Two men down, Mossy ready.
• 1:57:12
  And the pitch to Boyer, swung on, there's a fly ball to right,
• 1:57:15
  Bolivito going back and the ball is into the stands for home run by Cleve Boyer.
• 1:57:42
  Boyer hits the first pitch into the right field, stands for home run.
• 1:57:47
  Scoring, Mantle and Howard ahead of him and the Yankees are back in front, seven to five.
• 1:57:54
  The fourth home run hits by Boyer and his second in a row to right field.
• 1:58:00
  Get one off Ray Herbert to right field.
• 1:58:03
  Casey's called Richardson back over to the dugout.
• 1:58:08
  And now Bobby is coming out, McKinley is going over to ask Casey what's the delay.
• 1:58:20
  And McKinley pointing to somebody in the Yankee dugout,
• 1:58:31
  Joe Demastri is coming up to bat for Johnny Gabler.
• 1:58:36
  Mossy's pitch is inside for a ball.
• 1:58:41
  So Cleve Boyer comes through with his fourth homer and 17 runs batted in.
• 1:58:45
  And it's seven to five New York, last for seven.
• 1:58:50
  Mossy's next pitch is outside for a ball, two and nothing.
• 1:58:56
  Boyer has been a full hitter and Casey's been trying to get him to learn to hit the right field
• 1:59:01
  and once in a while, lately he has been.
• 1:59:05
  He rolled that outside pitch to right field, all the way.
• 1:59:11
  Two nothing pitch to Demastri and therefore strikes.
• 1:59:16
  I was kidding Demastri, I asked him how many hits he got this season now.
• 1:59:19
  I knew he was nothing for two.
• 1:59:21
  He says, well, he says let's put it this way.
• 1:59:24
  Let's say that I just came out of my batting club.
• 1:59:28
  Two one pitch, swung on and fouled off upstairs, strike two, two two.
• 1:59:48
  That home run takes Bob Curley off the hook.
• 1:59:53
  The two two delivery is a little high, ball three.
• 2:00:01
  He cannot now be charged with a loss and so is not involved in the decision at all.
• 2:00:12
  The three two pitch to Demastri, swung on and missed, strike three and the side is retired.
• 2:00:19
  One run for New York, one hit, one error and no one left on.
• 2:00:26
  And for Boyers he goes out.
• 2:00:28
  At the end of seven innings, New York seven runs, ten hits and no errors.
• 2:00:31
  Eight men left on.
• 2:00:33
  The Tigers five runs, six hits, three errors and three men left on.
• 2:00:42
  At one point of Mosse's pitching record all the runs were unearned.
• 2:00:49
  Bobby Shantz is coming in from the bullpen and that gives you time to go into the kitchen and get some Valentine Ale.
• 2:00:58
  If you're looking for a drink that's more than a first winter, different than any beer, try Valentine Ale with Brewer's Gold.
• 2:01:05
  It's the genuine.
• 2:01:09
  Shantz coming into pitch now in the eighth inning.
• 2:01:14
  Gabor works the one inning, gave up one hit and no runs.
• 2:01:17
  Turley the first six innings gave up five hits and five runs.
• 2:01:22
  Charlie Maxwell leads off in the last of the, rather in the first of the eighth.
• 2:01:27
  And Steve Bilko will hit for Norm Cash to get a right-handed hitter up there against Shantz.
• 2:01:34
  And Rocky Colabito.
• 2:01:38
  Maxwell walks, grounded to first and pops his short.
• 2:01:42
  Bobby Shantz making his 18th affair, a record of one and one this season.
• 2:01:48
  A little left-hander to the wind up to pitch to Charlie Maxwell, in there for a strike.
• 2:01:54
  Bobby has been used exclusively in relief.
• 2:02:02
  The second time out against Detroit, worked against him May 24th.
• 2:02:07
  Here's the pitch, high outside for a ball, one and one.
• 2:02:12
  He worked one inning against him that day, not one hit.
• 2:02:20
  Eighth inning, Yank seven, Tigers five.
• 2:02:23
  The one-one pitch to Maxwell, swung on and missed, strikes two, one and two.
• 2:02:38
  Both both fans are busy.
• 2:02:45
  Shantz into the wind up and the pitch to Maxwell, curveball is hit deep to right center,
• 2:02:49
  and Maxwell is on his way to second, grounded on his way to third.
• 2:02:59
  And he goes in with a triple.
• 2:03:07
  And Maxwell fell down out there, gets up, glinting a little.
• 2:03:12
  The ball landed right on top of the auxiliary scoreboard.
• 2:03:18
  Maxwell opens with a triple in the eighth inning.
• 2:03:23
  And here's Steve Bilko batting for Norm Cagg.
• 2:03:31
  Charlie Maxwell getting his third triple.
• 2:03:35
  Missed the home about just a little bit.
• 2:03:39
  Big Steve Bilko right-hand batter.
• 2:03:41
  Here's the pitch, fastball, it misses outside, ball one.
• 2:03:56
  Shantz into the wind up, the pitch to Bilko is inside, curveball, ball two.
• 2:04:13

• 2:05:30
  Full count on Big Steve.
• 2:05:35
  The wind up and the three-two pitch, swung on and fouled off, and the count remains three and two.
• 2:05:41
  Throw in the screwball and just got it off the tip end of the bat.
• 2:06:04
  Full count now.
• 2:06:06
  Bilko steps back in a hitting position.
• 2:06:09
  Maxwell is tripled on third base, nobody out.
• 2:06:16
  Colavito on deck.
• 2:06:18
  Shantz ready.
• 2:06:21
  Swings to the wind up round, comes to the left arm, the pitch swung on to high fly down the left field line,
• 2:06:26
  curving foul, and it's going out of play.
• 2:06:31
  Count remains three and two.
• 2:06:56

• 2:07:07
  Bilko strikes out.
• 2:07:11
  And here now is Rocky Colavito with Al Kailine on deck.
• 2:07:16

• 2:07:27
  Colavito steps in.
• 2:07:41
  Maxwell on third, one out of the eight.
• 2:07:43
  Seven to five New York.
• 2:07:45
  Shantz to the wind up and the pitch to Rocky.
• 2:07:48
  Ball one just outside, no curve.
• 2:07:54
  Rocky flexes his back muscles.
• 2:08:00
  Steps back into hitting position.
• 2:08:03
  He'll be swinging for that equalizer.
• 2:08:08
  Here's the pitch.
• 2:08:10
  Curve over, strike on, one and one.
• 2:08:22
  Shantz goes to the rosin bag, sets it up, steps back up on the rubber.
• 2:08:27
  Elton Howard gives him the sign.
• 2:08:32
  Maxwell up the line, the wind up, in comes the pitch, and it's inside.
• 2:08:36
  Ball two, two and one.
• 2:08:38
  Another sharp curve.
• 2:08:50
  Two balls, one strike.
• 2:08:59
  Bobby, ready to work.
• 2:09:01
  Maxwell up the line.
• 2:09:02
  Here's the pitch, and Colavito swings and grounds it to short.
• 2:09:06
  For your long throw, gets Colavito as Maxwell scores at seven to six.
• 2:09:14
  An RBI for Rocky, his 34th.
• 2:09:19
  The ground ball, it got by, McSuzo going to his left.
• 2:09:22
  No chance to make the play at the plate, and in fact,
• 2:09:25
  Boyer had to make a long throw deep in the hole to get Colavito.
• 2:09:30
  Now Al K-line, grounded to short, single to left, and fly to left.
• 2:09:44
  Al K-line will be ripping.
• 2:09:47
  He's been on the upgrade with his hitting, as has Colavito.
• 2:09:51
  Chance delivers over the outside corner for a strike, nothing and one.
• 2:10:12
  One strike pitch, Long on, bounce toward third, McDoogle, gloves it going to his left,
• 2:10:17
  fires on low, just up by the moose in time, and the sides retire.
• 2:10:24
  One run, one hit, no errors, no one left on, and at the end of seven and a half innings,
• 2:10:29
  New York seven, Detroit six.
• 2:10:58
  Time for a breather right now, time to open up a cool Valentine ale with Brewer's Gold,
• 2:11:03
  to relax and quench your thirst.
• 2:11:05
  But after the game, when you want more than a thirst quenching drink,
• 2:11:08
  try the same Valentine ale with your meal.
• 2:11:11
  Discover how big Valentine ale goes with whatever you're having for dinner.
• 2:11:16
  With your meal, you'll find the big taste of Valentine ale is more than a thirst quencher,
• 2:11:21
  different than any beer.
• 2:11:23
  Try it, see what a difference an ale makes.
• 2:11:31
  It's the last half of the eighth inning.
• 2:11:35
  It's the top of the New York order.
• 2:11:38
  Richardson, Lopez, and Maris.
• 2:11:40
  Bilko stays in the game at first base.
• 2:11:48
  Don Mosse to the windup, and the pitch is flung on his miss, strike one.
• 2:11:52
  Richardson fouled out the first, single the left center, fly the center,
• 2:11:55
  and hit his sacrifice, fly the left.
• 2:12:05
  The one strike pitch, flung on is a high one hopper,
• 2:12:09
  to Yost to throw the first in time, one away.
• 2:12:15
  Hector Lopez is coming to bat.
• 2:12:18
  Walk, sacrifice, single the center, single the right.
• 2:12:21
  So he's had a perfect game, two for two.
• 2:12:30
  Dismar and Burnside are the scheduled starters for the second game.
• 2:12:38
  Yankee seven, Tigers six.
• 2:12:41
  It's the last of the eighth.
• 2:12:45
  And Don Mosse's delivery, inside around the letters for a ball.
• 2:13:02
  The one nothing pitch, thin miss, strike one, one and one, slow curve.
• 2:13:09
  The Tigers have Fernandez and Wilson the first two men up in the last of the ninth.
• 2:13:18
  And then Mosse, possibly a pinch hitter for him, depending on what happens before.
• 2:13:23
  Next pitch is lined out over second in the center for a base hit.
• 2:13:28
  K-line tossing it back in the bowling.
• 2:13:32
  Lopez lines his third straight single.
• 2:13:35
  And here's Roger Maritz, who is hitless, pops the second, foul of a catcher,
• 2:13:42
  grounded the second and pops the second.
• 2:13:53
  Last time Lopez faced Mosse on June 23rd, he had three out of four.
• 2:13:58
  Today he's had three for three.
• 2:14:01
  The pitch swung on and missed, strike one. Roger was trying to pull one into the stands.
• 2:14:11
  No balls, one strike, one out.
• 2:14:13
  Seven, six, New York, eighth inning.
• 2:14:18
  Mosse to the stretch.
• 2:14:20
  And the pitch swung on and fouled off.
• 2:14:23
  Strike two, nothing in two.
• 2:14:36
  No balls, two strikes.
• 2:14:47
  Lopez on first with one away.
• 2:14:49
  Mosse again to the stretch. And the pitch swung on, fouled back upstairs, count remains two strikes.
• 2:15:13
  Wilson gives the sign to the left-hander. Mosse into the stretch. Lopez with a short lead.
• 2:15:20
  And the delivery, curve ball high and inside, one and two.
• 2:15:28
  Wilson rubs up the cover of the ball before turning it to Mosse.
• 2:15:39
  One-two count on Maris.
• 2:15:47
  Mosse didn't like the sign, stepped off the rubber, now he's back on.
• 2:15:53
  Into the stretch, runner leads away from first.
• 2:15:57
  And the pitch. He struck out, he swung out, he tried to check it.
• 2:16:02
  McKinley said he struck at the ball.
• 2:16:05
  And now Maris is questioning him.
• 2:16:10
  But he's tracked out.
• 2:16:13
  And Mickey Mantle's coming up. Two away.
• 2:16:19
  That's the fourth strikeout for Mosse.
• 2:16:25
  Mantle's had two for four, two singles, first two times up, struck out, and then Mosse's on a throwing error in the seventh inning leading off.
• 2:16:34
  Throwing error by Fernandez.
• 2:16:37
  Then came a walk to Howard and a home run by Boyer, puts the Yankees out in front.
• 2:16:42
  Seven to six to score.
• 2:16:45
  Two out.
• 2:16:49
  Mosse to the stretch.
• 2:16:52
  And the pitch. Swung on and popped up into the air behind the plate.
• 2:16:58
  Wilson under it, has it, and the side's retired.
• 2:17:05
  No runs, one hit, no errors, and one left on.
• 2:17:10
  At the end of eight innings of play, New York seven runs, eleven hits, no errors.
• 2:17:15
  Nine left on. Tigers six runs, seven hits, three errors, and three men left on base.
• 2:17:22
  The Red Sox got eight runs in the seventh inning.
• 2:17:26
  Leading Kansas City 12 to 2, then to seven and a half.
• 2:17:29
  Wills relieved the lock in the seventh for Kansas City Hall, Garber, Larson, and Blemker.
• 2:17:34
  Seaburn home and four days.
• 2:17:37
  Tasby hit a grand slammer for the Red Sox and that eight run, seventh inning.
• 2:17:42
  Wirtz hit one with two on, and earlier Williams hit one with one on as his 506th career home early 14th of the season.
• 2:17:50
  White Sox and Orioles one and one end of ten innings. Salia relieved score in the tenth. Jack Fisher for Baltimore.
• 2:17:56
  Seaburn in the seventh, Triandus in the fourth homerings.
• 2:17:59
  Cleveland beat Washington five to two. Perry beat Bill Fisher.
• 2:18:03
  Home runs held, Keene, Lemon, and Gardner.
• 2:18:05
  Second game, Cleveland leading seven and nothing end of three innings, getting six runs in the third.
• 2:18:10
  Briggs and Lee, Romano had a three run homer.
• 2:18:13
  National League, Giants beat the Phils 11 to five. Jones beat Short.
• 2:18:16
  Homers, Mays, Alou, Schmitz have one on. Taylor and Wallers.
• 2:18:20
  Los Angeles beat Pittsburgh six to two. Drysdale beat Mizel. Hodges homers.
• 2:18:25
  Cubs seven, Reds four end of seven. Hobby four of the Cubs. O2 for Cincinnati.
• 2:18:30
  McLeish and Grimman relief. Anderson and Post homing for Cincinnati.
• 2:18:34
  Santos with two on for the Cubs.
• 2:18:37
  And the Cardinals lead the Braves, no they're tied up at three three last of the ninth.
• 2:18:41
  Buell and Klein, homers Bruton and two for Aaron.
• 2:18:45
  Fernandez leading off in the ninth inning. The pitch is in there for a strike.
• 2:18:49
  Chico grounded to Short. Single to left, lying to center.
• 2:18:53
  New York seven, Detroit six. Bobby Shantz in relief of Gabler who had relieved Turley.
• 2:18:59
  Bobby to the windup round comes the left arm. The pitch,
• 2:19:03
  swung on and loose out into Short right and it's in there for the base hit.
• 2:19:08
  He just punched it over second and the Tigers get the lead man on in the ninth inning.
• 2:19:16
  Time is called. Fernandez is going to get a runner.
• 2:19:22
  Fernandez normally doesn't need a runner, but apparently he hurt himself.
• 2:19:28
  Casey Wise going in to run for him.
• 2:19:32
  Fernandez has a muscle injury.
• 2:19:38
  And Casey Wise is going in to run.
• 2:19:45
  Now Red Wilson is the batter.
• 2:19:48
  Grounded to Short, fouled out to third and popped to second.
• 2:20:08
  McDougald and Shantz have gotten together.
• 2:20:14
  Red Wilson at bat. Wise on first, nobody out in the ninth.
• 2:20:19
  And Johnny Gross is on back to hit for Maupie. Bobby to the stretch.
• 2:20:23
  And the pitch. Swung on, there's the drive, hits it deep right.
• 2:20:27
  But Maris is getting under it near the barrier, right at the barrier, one away.
• 2:20:33
  That ball started out like it was going to go all the way.
• 2:20:37
  Wilson riding at screwball, breaking away from the right hand hitter.
• 2:20:41
  And it looked as if it was going all the way until you saw Maris finally stop and get under it right at the barrier.
• 2:20:48
  One down and Casey Singles coming out of the dugout now as Johnny Gross comes up.
• 2:21:06
  Gross heading for Maupie. Eddie Yost to follow. Now Casey's talking to Bobby.
• 2:21:16
  Let's see how he is.
• 2:21:29
  Casey's trying to decide whether to bring in Fisher or not. He's going to leave Shantz with it.
• 2:21:44
  Johnny Gross, 3-4-11, hitting 273.
• 2:21:53
  One out down the ninth. Yank seven, Tigers six. Gross back to right handed. Bobby to the stretch.
• 2:22:00
  Check of the runner and the pitch. Swung on and missed. Strike one, sharp curve.
• 2:22:07
  Gross was really wheeling.
• 2:22:10
  Again the stretch by Shantz, Wyves moves away. Here's the pitch.
• 2:22:14
  Swung on, hits foul down the left-field line. Ball going into the mezzanine. Strike two, nothing in two.
• 2:22:22
  No balls, two strikes, one out, one on.
• 2:22:31
  Shantz into the stretch. Wyves leads away from first. Here's the pitch and Johnny Gross takes a two ball way outside.
• 2:22:36
  Almost a wild pitch. Howard at the backhand. The ball breaking off to the right of the plate.
• 2:22:43
  One and two.
• 2:22:48
  Bobby again to the stretch. Wyves moves off first. Here's the pitch and Gross takes it outside. Ball two, so sharp, two-two.
• 2:23:00
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 2:23:06
  Again the stretch and the pitch to Gross. High, ball three now. Full count. Nothing in two and now the count runs to three and two.
• 2:23:19
  Bobby is trying for a little extra on those last three pitches and they are nowhere near the plate.
• 2:23:25
  Casey Wyves on first and one out may be traveling. Full count on Gross.
• 2:23:35
  The stretch, Wyves leads away and the pitch. It's just outside for ball four.
• 2:23:43
  Down to second goes Wyves, Gross walks. Casey's out of the dugout.
• 2:23:50
  Howard and Shantz picked on the pitch. That's ball four. Now the Tigers have two men on, one out and Casey's out of the dugout.
• 2:24:04
  That means Shantz, of course, automatically out now.
• 2:24:16
  Bobby came onto the eighth inning and pitched one and one-third inning, allowing two hits.
• 2:24:24
  Walk one, truck out one.
• 2:24:28
  And of course the runners are his responsibility. Bobby departs.
• 2:24:43
  Boy, I tell you, we've had some struggles here yesterday and today. Johnny James is coming in.
• 2:24:59
  Jimmy Dykes is countering the change of pitchers by sending up Neil Chrisley. They were power hitting left-handed batter to hit for Eddie Yost.
• 2:25:21
  Johnny James making his 22nd appearance. He worked one inning against the Tigers yesterday and gave up two hits in one run.
• 2:25:30
  Neil Chrisley will bat for Yost. Chrisley hitting.258.
• 2:25:41
  Casey Wyse on second, running for Fernandez and Gross, who batted for Mawsy and drew a walk on first base.
• 2:25:55
  Mantle and Maris throwing the ball back and forth in the outfield.
• 2:26:00
  The White Sox got a run on the 11th inning to beat Baltimore 2-1, Bailey in relief of score got the win. Jack Fisher all the way, the loser.
• 2:26:12
  Neil Chrisley comes up to bat for Eddie Yost with Wyse and Gross aboard. One out, ninth inning, Yanke 7 Tigers 6.
• 2:26:28
  James to the test and the pitch outside ball on.
• 2:26:50
  James to the test, here's the pitch.
• 2:27:03
  Yankees lead 3-0, 3-1, 3-2, then it was 5-3 Detroit, 5-4, then 7-5, then 7-6.
• 2:27:12
  That's where we are right now with Wyse on second, Gross on first, and a one out, ninth inning, Chrisley batting for Yost.
• 2:27:20
  Johnny James ready, delivers, and it's low ball 2-2-1.
• 2:27:28
  Two balls, one strike.
• 2:27:42
  Johnny James getting set, runners lead away. Here's the pitch to Chrisley, swung on line to right field for a face hit.
• 2:27:49
  Roger Maris cut loose a perfect throw from deep right field. On the line, an arm never hit the ground.
• 2:27:57
  And Casey Wyse has thrown out the plate on Neil Chrisley's pinch hit, swing to the right.
• 2:28:07
  Gross dropping at second. Now Casey's out of the dugout. Wow, what a clutch throw.
• 2:28:13
  One of the finest throws you've ever seen. And he had him out for something to spare, considering plays at the plate.
• 2:28:22
  And with Frank Bowling coming up, Casey's bringing in another pitcher.
• 2:28:31
  Roger Maris, who went hitless in his five times as fast, charged that ground ball and cut loose with a low line throw all the way into Howard.
• 2:28:42
  And Wyse was cut down at the plate. Two down and two on.
• 2:28:57
  So Jern's taking his warm-up tosses. One of them bounces away from Howard.
• 2:29:24
  And he's gone a while with a couple of his pitches there and wants a new ball to throw.
• 2:29:31
  With two men on base and Charlie Mack will do up next. I guess Wyse is not something you could afford at a time like this.
• 2:29:43
  And still a while with his fast ball that tails into the header.
• 2:29:48
  Frank Bowling steps in. He took a third strike, grounded a third, did a three-run homer off Charlie and grounded a third.
• 2:29:57
  And in growth on second, Neal Chrisley on first, two outs in the ninth, Yank seven, Tigers six.
• 2:30:18
  The Tigers lead away, Jern into the stretch, and the pitch. High ball one. That ball failed. One ball, no strikes.
• 2:30:43
  Growth leads off second, Chrisley off first, Jern into the stretch, and the pitch.
• 2:30:57
  That's outside, ball two. Two balls, no strikes. Two on, two out, and a two-nothing count on Frank Bowling.
• 2:31:26
  Howard returns to the plate. Jern checks with him, into the stretch now, runners lead away.
• 2:31:39
  And the two-nothing pitch in there, strike one, good one. Two balls, one strike.
• 2:31:58
  Bowling standing up there, ready. Growth moves off second, Chrisley off first, Jern into the stretch. Next around, and the pitch.
• 2:32:11
  Outside, ball three, three-one. He didn't miss a corner much. Wasn't very wild with that one, but enough, and it's a three-one count.
• 2:32:23
  Now, I don't know what Jimmy Dax will do here, whether he puts a take sign on or not, but Charlie Max will do up next.
• 2:32:33
  Three balls, one strike. Runners lead away from first and second, and the three-one pitch. Strike two, call, full count.
• 2:32:50
  So, we're down to the position where we keep going or don't go anymore. Growth and Chrisley will be off and running with the pitch.
• 2:33:05
  Full count, two out. Yanks, seven, Tigers, six, nine, winning the stretch by Jern. Runners ready to go.
• 2:33:13
  There they go, and the pitch is outside, ball four, and they're loaded up. And here's Charlie Maxwell coming up.
• 2:33:26
  One almost knew it had to come to this. Growth to third, Chrisley to second, bowling to first, and the batter, Charlie Maxwell,
• 2:33:37
  who walks, grounded to first, pops the short and triples the right center.
• 2:33:48
  Three men aboard and two out in the ninth inning. Charlie Maxwell digs in. A windup, and the pitch.
• 2:33:59
  Going on and missed, strike one. No balls, one strike. Whichever way the ball game goes, the crowd is loving it.
• 2:34:17
  Chrisley on third, Chrisley on second, bowling on first. Charlie Maxwell up there. A windup, three men lead away.
• 2:34:29
  And Maxwell takes it low for a ball, one and one, laid off the center. One ball, one strike.
• 2:34:52
  Time call for a moment.
• 2:35:02
  Three runners lead away to wind up the pitch to Maxwell. Inside, ball two, two and one.
• 2:35:16
  Two balls, one strike.
• 2:35:26
  Growth and Chrisley and bowling leading away from third, second, and first.
• 2:35:31
  And getting the sign to the windup. Here's the two-one pitch. Swung on and fouled off. Coming back towards the screen, and Howard cannot get it. It's up onto the screen just inches. Howard is right back to the screen. The ball missed, missing the screen by a couple of inches, and it's a two-two count.
• 2:35:52
  So the tension is still here. Fingernails back in time at Yankee Stadium.
• 2:36:06
  Two balls, two strikes, two outs, three men on, nine-punching, Yanks up and Tigers sixth.
• 2:36:12
  Yurin pitching to Charlie Maxwell. Gets the sign, the crowd beginning to roar.
• 2:36:22
  Gross Chrisley and bowling leading away. The windup, around comes the right arm, and the pitch is hung on in this strike three, and it's all over. The Yankees win it seven to six.
• 2:36:35
  Ryan Dern stayed with them.
• 2:36:39
  And the man in right field, Roger Maris, made the great throw.
• 2:36:48
  Now at C.
• 2:36:52
  The big start of the next game will be about 540. Whoa, another one. No runs, two hits, no errors, and three men left on.
• 2:37:06
  Tigers had two singles and two walks in the ninth inning. Now a great truck throw by Roger Maris knocking off the tying run, and then Dern, after walking the first man he faced to load the bases, tracks out Charlie Maxwell.
• 2:37:21
  So the total, the Yankees, seven runs, 11 hits, no errors, Tigers six runs, nine hits, and three errors. Don Mossey all the way. The loser, the winning pitcher is Johnny Gabler. Gaber, a record of three and three. Mossey now a record of five and six.
• 2:37:38
  Well, while you catch your breath after that exciting ball game, we'll give you about 20 minutes back with your individual stations while you talk that one over. Boy, there was more action in that ball game than you might find in a half a dozen other ones.
• 2:37:53
  A real crowd placer that had everybody on the edge of their seats until Smokey Maxwell struck out to end the ball game.
• 2:38:03
