[Vince Gulley]

Well friends, this broadcast is authorized under broadcasting rights granted by the Brooklyn National League Baseball Club Incorporated solely for the entertainment of our listening audience and any publication, rebroadcast or other use of the descriptions and accounts of the scheme without the express written consent of the Brooklyn National League Baseball Club Incorporated is prohibited. Well, tonight Chicago Cubs in town to open up a three day series here with the Dodgers. Tomorrow night's game will be at Roosevelt Stadium and Thursday they'll come back here to wind up the set. Moving in on Friday, Saturday and for a doubleheader Sunday, the Cincinnati Red Leg. The Dodgers have a 30 record against the Cubs this year with two victories at Ebbets Field and one at Wrigley Field. Two of the ball games in the western city of course were postponed because of bad weather. The Brooklyn record, by the way, against the western clubs this year is 10 and 6, 5 and 4 at home and 5 and 2 away. That victory in Chicago was posted by young Sandy Koufax who blazed by a 13 strikeout from that ballgame to get a 32 win. The two runs against Sandy, but the Cubs were unearned in that one. Koufax will go to the firing line tonight and opposing will be a young right hander named Richard Fred Drach, known by his teammates as Dick Draught. Purchased by the Cubs from Los Angeles on March 5th this year. He's a big right hander who is from Cincinnati. Last year with Los Angeles on the coast, he won 13, lost 10 and had an earned run average of 4.39. So it'll be Dracht going against Koufax. Sandy Koufax, the left hander and Dick Drot with the right hander. Let's give you a rundown now on the batting orders for the two ball clubs. Leading off for Chicago. At second base will be Bobby Morgan, left field speak. At third base will be Banks. In center field will be Walls Ernega, the right fielder ER Naga, a newcomer who has made Quite an impressive start with Chicago. Dale Long at first base, Neiman the catcher, Littrell at shortstop and Dick Drop to do the pitching for the Dodgers. Amorous in left field, Gilliam at second base, Duke Snyder in center, Gino Simoli in right field, Hodges at first, Campanella catching, Charlie Neal at third, Don Zimmer at short and Sandy Koufax to do the pitching. The umpires for tonight's game will be Gorman at the plate, Dixon Burkhardt and Dusty Bogus on the bases. Well, it's a fine night for a ball game. Still plenty of seats available here at Ebbets Field for their series opener which welcomes the Dodgers back home after a long road trip. They went to the west and had the trip broken by a three day stand here against the Giants and went back into Pennsylvania for a nine game series. So it'll be the Dodgers and the Cubs as the Western invasion begins for the second time this year. Still plenty of seats here at Ebbots Field. A fine night for a ball game. So you're in the neighborhood, make your plans and come on over and see one. Koufax has stopped his warm ups now and he's about ready to go. But the big Chicago right enter Dick Drop, is still firing away off to our left. Brooklyn on this home stand plays 15 games against the west, including two games at Jersey City tomorrow night against Chicago and June 10th against Milwaukee. There'll be two Sunday double headers in the set. June 9th against Cincinnati. That'll be this coming Sunday and then a week from Sunday against the St. Louis Cardinals on Father's Day. The Dodgers take the field now and we'll remind you to be sure and pick up your tickets for those two big doubleheaders coming up. Sunday, June 9, the Dodgers and the Cincinnati Red Legs. And Sunday, June 16 with St. Louis. So the Chicago Cubs, Milwaukee Braves, Cincinnati red legs and St. Louis Cardinals come to Webbit Field while the Dodgers here hope to make hay and gain a little ground in the National League standing. Going out to play now, third base, Charlie Neal at shortstop, Don Zimmer. Second is Junior Gilliaman. At first, Gil Hodges. Sandy Amorous goes to left field, Duke Snyder to center, Gino Simoli to right, Campanella catching, Koufax pitching. And now our national anth. Sam. And thoughts about time to play.

The Global Gaming League is presented by Atlas Earth, the fun cashback app. Hey, it's Howie Mandel and I am inviting you to witness history as me and my How We do it gaming team take on Gilly the King and Wallow $267 million gaming in an epic global Gaming league video game showdown.

[Vince Gulley]

The Dodgers are on the field defensively and the Chicago Cubs will start off with Morgan Speak and Banks to face left hander Sandy Koufax. And I imagine the Cubs remember that last outing against Koufax when 13 fan the breeze. Koufax firing down a few to Roy Campanella. And we'll have this one underway in just a moment. The Dodgers currently in third place in a tie with Milwaukee in the National League standings, three games off the top and a game a half a game behind the Philadelphia Phil Tour in second. The Dodgers on this long home stand coming up against the Western club hope to pick up some ground. Kofax about ready now. Still popping them into Roy Campanella. Fine evening for a ball game. And again we ask you if you're in the neighborhood, come on out there but field and take this one in. It ought to be a good game between two fine young pitchers. Dick Grott for the Cubs and Sandy Koufax for the Brooklyn Dodgers. The bullpen crew going down right field for the Dodgers. Stepping into the batter's box, the Chicago leadoff man, Bobby Morgan. And stepping into the microphone for the F M Shaper Brewing Company for the play by play, here's Vince Gulley. Vince thank you, Jerry.

[Jerry Doggett]

And good evening everybody. And despite the fact that I have

[Vince Gulley]

just knocked a cup of coffee in my lap in a suit that's just

[Jerry Doggett]

out of the cleaners, it's great to be home. Bobby Morgan, Bob Speak and Ernie Banks in the first inning. So Sandy Koufax a belated starter with Magley the announced pitcher, out and Koufax gets over the strike on one. Morgan batting 281. He has a run batted in. The lights have not as yet taken complete effect. Koufax, trying to use that to his advantage, now comes back with a fastball

[Vince Gulley]

that's cut on and missed. 0 and 2.

[Jerry Doggett]

You see that happen a lot in ball games, especially night games or out at Chicago. At the tail end of a game,

[Vince Gulley]

the pitcher will rely more on his

[Jerry Doggett]

fastball.02, the count of Bobby Morgan. Koufax ready Curveball is cut on and fouled away. 02.

[Vince Gulley]

The F.M. shaffer Brewing Company of Brooklyn.

[Jerry Doggett]

Delighted to be sending it to you. Hope things are going just right for

[Vince Gulley]

you, wherever you may be.

[Jerry Doggett]

Had a pretty good breeze blowing from the right field corner, slanting over to the left field corner. Strike two pitch. Slow curve got him swinging. Sandy Kopax, the last time he faced the Chicago Cubs, out at Wrigley Field, you no doubt remember he struck, struck out 13. Going into tonight's ballgame, he had 47 strikeouts. He's second man in the league. One back of Luis Arroyo of the Pirates. And now by striking out Bobby Morgan, Koufax now ties Arroyo. Bob speak batting.243 with three home runs and 11 runs batted in. One out in the first inning, no score. Koufax ready and comes to the plate. Fastball inside, ball one. Tommy Gorman calling the balls and strikes. Hal Dixon at first, Kenny Burkhard at second and Dusty Bajas at third. Koufax staring in to get his sign. Campanello wig wags it out to him now. Neil in on the grass at third. The 10 pitch. Too high. Ball two.

[Vince Gulley]

Two and oh.

[Jerry Doggett]

Dodgers and the Chicago Cubs opening up a big stand here at Ebbets Field tonight and over at Jersey City tomorrow night. Don Drysdale will do the pitching for Brooklyn tomorrow evening.

[Vince Gulley]

Two balls, no strikes to Bob Speak.

[Jerry Doggett]

One out on the first inning, no score. Koufax right back and the fastball is inside. Ball three. 30 Colfax at this moment. Then, of course, it's only the second batter is not nearly as fast as he was in Chicago. However, he's trying to loosen up. And right now he bent over and tried to touch his toes. 3 and oh, the count. Sandy ready and delivers. Fast ball, low.

[Vince Gulley]

Ball four.

[Jerry Doggett]

So Bob speak calls a walk with one out on the first inning. Ernie Banks batting.231. He has five home runs, 15 runs batted in. Out on deck, Lee Wol, Sandy Koufax and Roy Campanella, the Dodger Battery. Koufax takes a peek at first, checks again and goes over there and Speak just off the bag, steps back,

[Vince Gulley]

Hodges,

[Jerry Doggett]

Gilliam, Zimmer and Neil the outfield of Amoro Snyder and Samoli. Kovank said. Another look at first. Now the fastball is bounded up along the third baseline and goes foul on one to Ernie Banks.

[Vince Gulley]

Well, what have you been doing while

[Jerry Doggett]

we were away on the road through the state of Pennsylvania? You have a nice Memorial Day weekend and a big holiday. Hope you did. And I certainly hope you'll be making your plans to pay us a visit. Come on out to the ballpark. Be home for a while now and the entire west will come storming in. And the highlight invasions, of course, by Cincinnati and Milwaukee. So we'll be looking forward to seeing out here at the ballpark. Banks waiting on one account. Koufax bends a curve and it's cut on and missed. Strike two. Sandy took a little off that and banks out.

[Howie Mandel]

The Global Gaming League is presented by Atlas Earth, the fun cashback app. Hey, it's Howie Mandel and I am inviting you to witness history as me and my How We do it gaming team take on Gilly the King King and Wallow two $67 million gaming in an epic Global Gaming League video game showdown.

[Jerry Doggett]

We have confirmation of the Chicago Cub pitcher for tomorrow night, Don Kaiser. So it'll be Don Kaiser and Don Drysdale tomorrow night at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey city. Banks waiting 0 and 2 to count. Koufax goes to a stretch and pulls it down. Now the strike two fits. Fastball high ball one, one and two. The Dodgers, for many, many reasons, are happy to be home, not the least of which extra time for batting practice. They've been out here quite a while today trying to get their eye back. So to first Bob speak back. You know, when you're the visiting ball club and you get into a hitting slump, it's pretty tough to correct it for. You only have a half hour of batting practice as a visitor. Home club can bat all day if they want. One and two pitch, fastball got him swinging and that thing was moving. So maybe Colfax is starting to loosen up a little bit. It wasn't very fast to Morgan or Speke with that last strike to Ernie Banks. Had something on it.

[Vince Gulley]

Oh.

[Jerry Doggett]

He now has two strikeouts in the first inning. He is now one ahead of Luis Arroyo. Koufax now with 49 strikeouts. Lee Walls batting.226, 10 runs batted in, two out of the first inning.

[Vince Gulley]

No scorer. Bob speak at first base.

[Jerry Doggett]

Sandy Koufax and Dick Grot in this one. Koufax takes a peek at first. Now left hands a fastball in there that's cut on and fouled to the right of the plate and close to the dugout. Campanella comes over to the lip of the dugout and he has no play ball. Finally winds up about four rows back of the dugout. Oh, and one to count. Young GI with his gal got that foul ball. Proudly presented it to her. Like to see that in the ballpark. Another thing you like to see is a father catches foul ball, hand it

[Vince Gulley]

to his little son.

[Jerry Doggett]

That's my pup.

[Vince Gulley]

Walls waiting.

[Jerry Doggett]

Owen won the count. Koufax now ready and decides to go to first again and speak right back to the bag. Just the start of things. So pull up a comfortable chair if you want to take your shoes off. Go ahead, wiggle your toes. And we hope you'll have a cold shafer or two throughout the evening. Dodgers and Cubs opening up the home stand. Koufax set. Now the strike. One pitch. Slow curve a little high just off the target where Tom Gorman started to bring his right hand up and then quickly snapped it back to his side. One ball, one strike. Kofaxet. Another look at first again he goes over there. And Bob Speak, who has not been having much of a lead, driven back to the bag again. Lee Wall's waiting. Koufax ready. Now the 1. 1 pitch. Fastball cut on and missed. And that was moving. One and two. Though one thing I'm pretty sure about this stage of the game now, Koufax has loosened up.

[Vince Gulley]

He appeared to be a little stiff

[Jerry Doggett]

pitching to Morgan even though he struck him out. Pinwheeled his arms around, did a couple of knee bends. Now he's starting to pitch with a loose motion. One and two. The count to Lee Walls. Two out in the first inning, no score. Koufaxat takes a peek at speed, comes to the plate with a curve and misses High two and two. Freddie Fitzsimmons coaching at first for Chicago. Round at third, George Myatt. Two balls, two strikes. Koufax set and delivers. Fastball caught on is a high pop fly. And a very shallow right center like Gilliam's going out and calling. Samoli trotting in behind him. And Gilliam takes it for the out. So in the first inning, no runs, no hits. There was one war one man left on Koufax strikes out two at the end of half an inning. Chicago nothing. And the Dodgers coming up. Coming up right now with the Shafer scoreboard, Jerry Doggett.

[Vince Gulley]

Well, Vinnie, there's a lot of activity going on tonight in the major league. Milwaukee playing the Giants at the Polo Grounds. Crone going against Miller. Cincinnati at Philadelphia. Lawrence against Haddocks. St. Louis at Pittsburgh it'll be Smith against Smith. And those St. Louis Smiths are still getting together. Bob Smith who formerly was with the Cardinals, pitching tonight for Pittsburgh. And Willard smith going for St. Louis. In the American League, the Yankees play at Cleveland. Sturtevan going against Daly, Boston and Chicago. Out of Chicago, Sullivan or Stiffler against Pierce. Washington at Detroit, it'll be Clevenger against Moss and Baltimore. And Kansas City Lowe's against Morgan. The games, of course, Chicago, Detroit and Kansas City will be somewhat behind us. Chicago, Detroit game will start at 9 o', clock, new York time. And the Kansas City game will be at 10 o'. Clock. The Yankee Cleveland game about to get underway. Our score at the end of the half inning of play. Nothing. Nothing. The Dodgers coming on. So let's get back to play.

[Jerry Doggett]

And here's Vin Sandy Amros, who's doing a fine job spelling Carl Furillo. Although Amros is playing in left field, he got into the lineup because of Furlough's stiff neck. Amros batting.320, has three home runs, nine runs batted in. Amros followed by Jim Gilliam and then Duke Snyder. Dick Drot, D, R, O T T loosening up right now. Richard Frederick Drot to be exact.

[Vince Gulley]

He throws hard.

[Jerry Doggett]

He has 46 strikeouts. So if you're keeping score, we'll probably be putting a few K's in the book tonight. Koufax recorded two in the first inning. Now we'll find out about Dick Drot. Amorous wiggling that bat back of his left ear, settles in the hitters box. And here we go to the last of the first. Drot delivers fastball outside. Ball one. In fact, anytime you go into Chicago, come to think of it, especially in the spring or in the fall, when you don't get that bright sunshine for too long, you run into Drat, Drabowski or Kaiser. You could be in for quite a Sad afternoon. The 10 pitch to Amorous. He runs up as if to bun and takes it inside. Ball two.

[Vince Gulley]

Two. And. Oh,

[Jerry Doggett]

some fine young ballplayers coming into their own this year. It's always a good sign for the league and for baseball. Rod ready now. The two old pitch. Tamoros in there. Look like he changed up on it. Two and one. Dodgers, of course, proud of their three youngsters. Johnny Padre, Sandy Koufax, Don Drysdale, for that matter. Gino Simoli, too. Drot gets his sign now, Dick ready and the two unpitched Amros fastball. Uppercut it. And a high pop fly. Ernie Banks calling. Waiting. He's got it.

[Vince Gulley]

One out.

[Jerry Doggett]

Jim Gilliam, who must be very happy to be back here in Brooklyn. He's had trouble. Needs extra batting practice. He's hitting 251. 10 runs batted in. On deck, Duke Snyder. Ernie Banks wide of the bag at third. But on the edge of the infield grass, Dick Drot goes to work. Now the right hander comes with a fastball and gets it over for the strike on one. Jake Butler coaching at first. Around a third. Billy Herman. Drop right back again. The strike. One pitch. The breaking ball. It's down low. One and one. One ball one strike. Drive delivers one one. The curveball breaks low and inside. Ball two. Two and one. It might be a slider, it's not that sharp. Curveball just seems to break in a little bit and drop.

[Vince Gulley]

Two balls.

[Jerry Doggett]

One strike to Jim Gilliam.

[Vince Gulley]

One out.

[Jerry Doggett]

Bottom of the first inning, no score. Drop. Ready and the two. One pitch. Fastball just outside. Ball three. Three and one. Schneider waiting on deck. Drod ready and the three. One pitch to Gilliam. Fastball high and junior's on go with one out. Gilliam draws the walk and it brings up the Duke. And a troubled Duke he is. With a.245 batting average. He's still hitting the long ball. He has nine home runs to lead the club and 20 runs batted in. Out on deck, Gino Simoli.

[Vince Gulley]

One out.

[Jerry Doggett]

Bottom of the first inning, no score. Gilliam at first base. Snyder waiting at the plate now. Dropped for the first time, having to work from a stretch position. Dick comes out, a peek at first now he works the plate. Sharp curve outside. Ball one one and.

[Vince Gulley]

Oh,

[Jerry Doggett]

One Ball. No strikes. Drought.

[Vince Gulley]

Ready.

[Jerry Doggett]

Now the 10 pitch. Schneider looks at a fastball. It's down low. Ball two, two zero. Dick Drot, as we said, a strikeout man. He has struck out 46 thus far this year and the high for him, which is also a league high. Dick Drot struck out 15 in one ballgame. The other two close to that. Koufax and Roberts have each struck out 13. Drot delivers two and O to Schneider and the fastball is high. Ball three, three zero. That 15 strikeout performance by Dick Drot is also now a Chicago club record. No pitcher in the history of the Cubs ever struck out that many men in one game. And he's 20 years old. He should be around Chicago for quite a while. Three balls and no strikes to Snyder. Drot ready and delivers fastball outside. Ball four. And so the fellow who can fire that baseball currently has trouble with control too. And he has walked two men with one out in the first inning. And here's Gino Simoli, who's certainly been carrying the banner for Brooklyn throughout the West. And then of course, in Pennsylvania, he was hurt on the way.

[Jerry Doggett]

But he still had that red hot batting average and he brings up a.346 average to the plate. In his last 11 ball games, Simoli has batted.432. Will you spell his name in capital letters? Gino Simoli. Gilliam coming away from second. Snyder from first one out. Bottom of the first inning. No score from Abbott Field in Brooklyn. Dick Drodready checks his runners and delivers fastball inside. Ball one. Samoli continues to look around at Billy Herman in case there might be something up in the air. Good batter will always check with his third base coach. Not just on a two zero and three zero count. One ball, no strikes. Dick Drodready another look to his baserunners and comes to the plate and misses again.

[Vince Gulley]

Down low.

[Jerry Doggett]

Ball two, two and. Oh. Now Dale Long comes over from first to have a few words. And Bob Shepping going out to the mound to see just what's wrong with Dick Drach. Long leaves the mound and shuffling. The next catcher going out to try and settle this young Fisher. Dick Grot and Cal Nieman. The Battery. Dale Long, Bobby Morgan, Jack Luttrell, Ernie Banks in the infield. The outfield, Bob Speak, Lee Walls and the right fielder, Frank or.

[Vince Gulley]

Simole.

[Jerry Doggett]

Waiting two balls, no strikes. Big Drot comes set now checks his runners and the 2. Nothing fixes Samoli down low. Ball 3. Drought as far as his record is concerned. With 46 strikeouts, he had walked 28 men. Profello throws that hard. That's very good, but he's having his problems here. One pitch away from loading up the bases. The three zero pitch to Simoli. Barreled in there for a strike three and one. Gilliam hands on his hips, a short lead off second. Snyder inching away off first. One out in the first inning, in case you might have just dropped by. No score. Drot set, checks his men. Now the 3. 1 pitch. Fastball is in there again. Strike 2. Oh, deg drot has gone to a full count. And now with one out, Simole and Messrs. Gilliam and Snyder on the base paths. Take a look over at third base, coach Billy Herman.

[Vince Gulley]

See if they play a little run

[Jerry Doggett]

and hit or not. Dot looks down the barrel to get his sign. Neiman Wig wags it out to him. The runners go. The three tour is cut on and fouled away down the right field line. On top of the roof and out of the ballpark. So the kids are listening to the ball game on. The soda pop stands outside. You run that one down almost to Bedford Avenue. Full count to Samoli. The runners were going on the pitch. We'll see what they do this time. Dick Drach shaking no. Now he's ready. Checks his runners. They go the three. Two are cut on, foul tipped and held by Neiman. And his throw goes into left field. Gilliam is up, comes to the plate. And Schneider Goes to third,

[Vince Gulley]

goes tomorrow.

[Jerry Doggett]

Strikes out. What happened was he foul tipped the ball right into the webbing of Neiman's glove. And the young catcher, in such a hurry to get his man at third, threw the ball into left field. So Simole strikes out, the runners advance to second and third. And Gilliam comes on in on the throwing error. And I imagine that they'll give them stolen bases on it. However, we will wait for the verdict of the official score. Both Snyder and Gilliam given credit for stolen bases. And then Gilliam comes in to score on the catcher's overthrow. Snyder advancing to third. Dodgers lead one to nothing here in the first inning. Two out and Gil Hodges steps in. Sharp curve in and over for a strike on one. Brooklyn 1, Cubs nothing. Bottom of the first inning. Duke Schneider coming down off third with two out. Hodges batting.344 drop ready in the strike. One pitch, fastball a little low. Hodges dropped his back foot back and slid that bat between his hands as if he was going to bunt. Snyder started to come down the line, then retreated. One ball, one strike. Gill's been red hot in his last 16 ball games. He's hit it up. 403 clip. Drop to his wind up. Now the one one pitch to Gill.

[Vince Gulley]

Fast ball low.

[Jerry Doggett]

Ball two, two and one. Two walks, a double steal and a throwing error by catcher Cal Neiman. And Brooklyn leads one to nothing. Two and one to count to Gil Hodges. Got ready. The two one pitch, fastball low and outside. Ball three. On deck, Roy Campanella. Still no action in the Chicago bullfen early in the ball game. And they'll go with a fellow can throw as well as Drot.

[Vince Gulley]

Three.

[Jerry Doggett]

One pitch to Hodges. Slow curve missed inside. Ball four. So Hodges walks. The third walk given up by Dick Drot. Runners at first and third with two out. And it brings up Roy Campanella. Campanella batting.239, has seven home runs, 22 runs batted in. Camp settling in the hitters box now. Drought having a rough first inning. Least control wise, he has been charged

[Vince Gulley]

with only one run.

[Jerry Doggett]

Checks his runners and delivers to Campy. And the fastball is at his knees for a strike on one.

[Vince Gulley]

Two out.

[Jerry Doggett]

Bottom of the first inning run is it. First and third. Brooklyn leads one to nothing. Campy just waiting. Drot staring in. Now the right hand already and the strike. One pitch, curveball. It backs Campanella out of there. One ball, one strike. We're happy to salute our Shaffer Award winners for the week. Johnny Padres and Gino Simone Samoli's been a big winner. We'll probably end up with half the brewery at the rate he's going. Drot set and 1. One pitch to Campy. Curve outside. Ball 2. 2 and 1. Have some wonderful gifts. You know, Schaeffer Wards all kinds of home appliances and radios. Wearing blenders and mixers and things like that.

[Vince Gulley]

Luggage.

[Jerry Doggett]

Cavanello waiting. Two balls, one strike. Drot delivers two and one to Roy. Fastball.

[Vince Gulley]

That's low.

[Jerry Doggett]

Ball three. Oh, Dick Drot having trouble with his control. Now it wants three men here in the first inning. One run is over. He might have been out of it had the ball not stuck in Neiman's web. However, once it did that and the young catcher made a hurried throw, went into left field three. One pitch to Campanella. Fastball cut on a high drive to deep right field. Back goes Omega. This one's going to be off the side of the scoreboard and bounding away. In comes Snider. Right back of him is Hodges on a stand up double by Campanello. Frank Ernega E R N A G A 26 year old right fielder. This is the first time he has ever played at Ebbets Field. And many a right fielder has spent a sleepless night thinking about that concave wall and the many sided scoreboard. And that thing took the wrong carom as far as the negotiation was concerned. Bounced all the way over near the foul line. So Cavanella doubles high off the Shaffer scoreboard to Wright, drives in two more and the Dodgers now lead three to nothing in the first inning. Caval now has 24 runs batted in. Roy at second. Charlie Neil to batter with two out. And the fast ball comes low. Ball one. Bob cheffing, going along with his young pitcher, finally stands up in front of his dugout and motions with his right hand to get somebody loose down there in the bullpen.

[Vince Gulley]

They didn't see him.

[Jerry Doggett]

And he now finds out about the telephone. So he'll ring curved to Charlie Neal in for the strike. 1 and 1. So they are moving around now on the Chicago bullpen. Brooklyn, three runs on one hit. Throwing error by catcher. Neiman got one run over and Campanella has just doubled in two. The one. One pitch now to Neil. Cut on and missed. One and two. Neil waiting. One ball, two strikes, two out in the first inning. Three nothing, Brooklyn. Cavanella coming away off second base. Now the one and two pitch to Neil is cut on and missed. Strike three. So Charlie goes down and that closes out the first inning. So both starting pitchers with reputations of being strikeout men and each starter has struck out two men in the first inning. However, Koufax walked just one man and got out of the first inning. Dick Grot is charged with with three runs on one hit, a double steal, a costly throwing error and one man left on at the end of one inning. Brooklyn 3, Chicago nothing. Now let's hear from Jerry.

[Vince Gulley]

Well now while the field changes hands, let's have a couple of young friends take the spotlight. How about it

[Jerry Doggett]

for real, real enjoyment?

[Jerry Doggett]

Get Shaffer Shaffer beer for real, real enjoyment.

[Vince Gulley]

Ask for Shaffer.

[Jerry Doggett]

It's real beer.

[Vince Gulley]

All right, set to play ball in the second inning. Let's go right back to the action. And here again is Ben Scully.

[Jerry Doggett]

Blanker, Naga E N A G A. He's come up from Portland and it certainly give the Cubs some power. He's batting 353. He's only 17 at bats. Frank Inaga, first pitch to him. Down low.

[Vince Gulley]

Ball one.

[Jerry Doggett]

Frank with six hits, has two home runs, two triples and a double. Extra base hits, right hand battery, E R N A G A Koufax ready in the 1 oh pitch fastball in for the strike. 1 and 1. It's a good thing Ornego or Nago was not. Was a good thing he wasn't a girl because he would have been upset about the age that they first announced about him. They said he was 37. He's 26. The one one pitch fastball, just low, ball two, two and one. Be followed by Dale Long and then catcher Cal Niemann. Giants In Milwaukee, a 11 tie at the end of an inning and a half. Koufax ready now. The two one pitch fastball in there. Strike two in that ball game. Ray cone and Stu Miller for the Giants. A 11 tie at the end of an inning and a half. Frank Tory at a home run for the Braves. Willie Mays at a home run for the Giants. Ornega waiting now. The 22 pitch fastball got him swinging. That is the third strikeout for Sandy Koufax and brings up Dale Long. Long, batting.243, has five home runs, 16 runs batted in. Long, powerful left hand batter formally. With the Pittsburgh Pirates out on deck, Cal Niemann first pitch along in and over for a strike on one. As soon as Dale has had his at bats, we'll duck in a station break. Koufax right back again. And the slow curve is just outside. One ball one strike. We're in the second inning. One out, bases empty, Brooklyn three and Chicago nothing. Koufax winds a one one pitch, fast ball cut on one and two. Koufax bends at the waist to get his sign from Campanella. Now he's ready. One and two pitch, slow curve down low two.

[Vince Gulley]

And.

[Jerry Doggett]

Philadelphia Phillies leading Cincinnati one to nothing at the end of an inning and a half. I mean, those fills are rough. Long waiting. Two balls, two strikes. Koufax delivers fastball inside right at the knuckles. Ball three, Full count. Koufax nods in agreement with Campanella. Now he's ready. 3, 2 pitch, fastball fouled away. The lights are beginning to take effect now here at the ballpark. Funny when the lights go on. The gray sky up ahead now appears to be nice and blue. Much nicer looking evening. Full count to Dale Long. Koufax ready. Sandy wines in the 32 fastball on the corner called strike three. And Dale Long is caught looking. Jaws away with Tom Gorman. But let us pause now for station identification.

[Vince Gulley]

This is 1460 Woko for the Brooklyn Dodgers games. And right to WOKO for the complete Dodgers schedule of games at home and away. Yours free for the Asking. Be sure to give your name and address. Write baseball Woko. Albany, New York and New York.

[Jerry Doggett]

All right. Back at Ebb Field, two out on the second inning. Cal Nieman the batter, and the first pitch in for the strike. On one was a very troubled and bitter Dale Long, who left the plate. He took his helmet off and fired it about 25ft along the box seat. Bad boy had to run down the line to get it. Koufax has now struck out four men in an inning and two thirds. Sandy right back, and it looked like he changed up and ballooned it too high. One and one. Cal Neiman. Batting.267. He has six home runs, 15 runs batted in. 1 and 1. Koufax looks into Campanella. Roy blinks, signs out to him. Now the 11 pitch. Fastball cut on and miss. 1 and 2. Sandy Koufax now has 51 strikeouts to be the leader. He is past Arroyo. Kovacs checking again. One and two the count. Sandy hides that ball back of his left hip. Now he's ready. One and two pitch change. Curve fouled at the plate and squirts away from Campanello. Roy got stung by it a little, hit him off the right knee. One and two the count to Cal Neiman. Remember tomorrow night at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City. Don Kaiser and Don Drysdale. The one and two pitch to Neiman. Fastball got him swinging. He struck out the side. Sandy Koufax has now struck out five men in two innings. Remember the last time he faced the Cubs? He struck out 13 at the end of an inning and a half. Brooklyn 3, Chicago nothing. Now here's Jerry.

[Vince Gulley]

You want a glass of beer? You want a good glass of beer? You want a great glass of beer, brother? You want a glass of Shaffer beer? Cause Schaefer's brewed for enjoyment, that's why. That's the whole story in a nutshell. Shaffer is brewed to give you all the enjoyment. All the light, zesty flavor, all the brilliant sparkle and zing you look for when you lift a glass of beer to your lips. And when you lift a glass of Shafer, man, it's sunlight on a drift of snow. Cool and white and wonderful. You try it yourself. First time a thirst catches up with you. For real enjoyment, pour out a foaming glass of shafer. You'll see it's real beer. The Dodgers come on with Zimmer, Koufax and Amaro first to appear against Dick Grot. And the battle of the strikeout artist goes on. Koufax now ahead 5 to 2, Dodgers leading 3 to nothing. So let's get back to play. And here again has been well, Don

[Jerry Doggett]

Zimmer will be first up, then pitchers Sandy Koufax and Sandy Amorous. Bottom of the second, three nothing, Brooklyn. We understand at the agency that we now have a young girl riding commercial copy. And I'll bet you her fine hand was in that last one. Sunlight on a drift of snow. All right, Zimmer batting.229. He has four home runs, 13 runs batted in. Drops fastball, is uppercutted and fouled by Cal Nieman on the run. Stumbles, he doesn't have a play, remains on his feet.

[Vince Gulley]

Oh, and one.

[Jerry Doggett]

The count to Zimmer. Last of the second inning, three nothing, Brooklyn. Bottom of the second. Dick Grot looks in to get his sign. Zimmer bends at the knees a little bit more now. And the strike one pitch. Fastball cut on is a high foul to the right of the plate. Neiman coming back right to the lip of the Dodger dugout and can't make it. The ball lands on the roof and somebody makes a great catch by the name of Barney Stein. Barney who takes great sports photos for the New York Post. He is also the Brookman Dodgers official photographer. And that thing kangarooed from the dugout roof right up into the camera booth. And there was Barney to grab it. He dropped a nine thousand dollar camera in the process. No, not really. 02 fastball is outside. Knocked down by Cal Nieman. One ball, two strikes. We're in the last of the second. Brooklyn three, Chicago nothing. Everybody a little extra chipper tonight now that we're. Drop to his wind up and delivers. Curveball in there called strike three. Zimmerman knew it and walked away. That's the third strikeout for Dick Drot, the eighth strikeout on the game. And we have one out in the bottom of the second. Now the last time anything like this began was out at Wrigley Field in Chicago. Mo Drabowski struck out eight men. Koufax struck out 13. The record, the total for a ballgame, 24. The national is 23 though. We'll keep an eye on it.

[Vince Gulley]

Pitch.

[Jerry Doggett]

The Koufax in for the strike. Going one. On that particular day, the total of strikeouts tied the national league record, 23. We're starting to build up to something like that again tonight. Strike one pitch to Koufax.

[Vince Gulley]

Up high.

[Jerry Doggett]

Know who had the other two strikeouts. Turk Loun in relief, one on one to Sandy Koufax. Drought ready and delivers fastball caught on late and missed 1 and 2. Koufax is over 10, but he has shown progress the last few times up. He's hit the ball and once or twice fairly well. Rod getting his sign. Koufax waiting now. The one and two pitch to Sandy. Fastball got him. So down he goes. Four strikeouts for Dick Drot. So that sword has two edges. Koufax been cutting down the Cubs and now he nubs a finger himself. Koufax struck out all three men in the second inning. Drota struck out three in a row as he faces Amorous here in the second inning. Rod ready and delivers slow curve in for the strike. Charlie Neal struck out to close out the first inning. And here in the second, Zimmer and Koufax have gone that way. We're seeing plenty of strikeouts. AMRO spanning 3:14 popped out in the first inning over one. God delivers fastball low one and one. At the end of two innings. We'll be ducking in scores all night long. The Phillies are leading Cincinnati 3 to nothing at the end of two innings. The Giants are leading Milwaukee 2 to 1 at the end of two innings. The Yankees leading Cleveland 31 at the end of an inning and a half. Slow curve fouled away at the plate. One and two Schaefer Beers sending it all to you. Hope you'll have a cold shafer while you're listening to the ball game. The one and two pitch now to Amorose fastball low two and two. We have two out in the second inning. We've had nine strikeouts in the ball game. Koufax has struck out five, Dick Drott has struck out four. The two two pitched Amaros fastball just low. Ball three, three and two. Dot is not overpowering. In fact, I don't think he even

[Vince Gulley]

looks quite his weight.

[Jerry Doggett]

He's even six and he weighs 185 pounds. Three two pitched, Amaros outside. Ball four. Oh, Sandy Amorous four. With two out in the second inning, it is the fourth walk given up by Dick Grass. Brooklyn three, Chicago nothing. And the batter, Jim Gilliam. Jim walked in the first inning, was the front man on a double steal. Actually was a run and hit play and Samoli struck out. And on the late throw to third, which went into left field, Gilliam picked himself up and came in to score. Jim batting.251. Drot up on the rubber now and come set. Takes a peek at Amoros. Two down, comes to the plate. And the fastball is outside. Ball one. I'll tell you one thing. When you're behind a pitcher like Dick Grott and say the outfielders tonight, Bob Speak and Lee Walls and Frank Omega, they really have to fight themselves to bear down. You get a pitcher having trouble with control and it's tough for the outfielders. The 10 pitch to Gilliam cut on a big bouncer, right to Dale Long. He goes up the ladder to grab it and steps on the bag. And that's it in the second inning, no runs, no hits. There was one man left on base at the end of two innings of play. Brooklyn 3, Chicago nothing. Once again, a few words from Jerry.

[Vince Gulley]

Well, here's something you won't want to miss, friends. The largest musical event in the country. Music under the Stars, June 19th at Ebbets Field. Part one will be an Israeli folk festival with the Goran Dancers and the Coopersmith Choral Group. Part two features the New York Philharmonic Orchestra with a Metropolitan Opera star as soloist.

Jack Luttrell coming on, followed by Dick Drought and then by the leadoff man, Bobby Morgan. Sandy Koufax now has five strikeouts. Dick Drought has four. So we're really having one going here tonight. Dodgers, three, Cubs nothing. Top of the third, back to action. And here again is Ben Jack Lachelle

[Jerry Doggett]

stepping in at batting.140 with three runs batted in. Want to spotlight something we forgot about before? Pay tribute to fine group Koufax checking his signs now with Campanellis and he winds and delivers fastball for a strike on hand. Tonight, the typical Brooklyn family selected by the Brooklyn Historical Society, Mr. And Mrs. Gerald O' Donnell and their children, our guests of the dodgers tonight. Strike one fits the curve a little high one and one. Mr. And Mrs. O' Donnell and their family live at 2683 Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn. And we're certainly happy to have them here.

The 11 pitch to Jack Littell. Fastball 22 and 1, start of the third inning. Brooklyn 3, Chicago nothing. Sandy Koufax and Dick Drot. Koufax checking signs again with Campy. Now the two one pitch fastball cut on and missed. Two and two. Well, I might have said earlier when the first two batters up there, the Koufax appeared not to be loose, but now he is firing. He struck out the side in the second inning. Two balls, two strikes, Littrell. Then pitcher Dick Drot and leadoff man Bobby Morgan. Koufax ready now two is wind up. The two two er fastball got him swinging. So Littrell strikes out. Four strikeouts in a row. For Koufax, he has struck out six men in two and a third innings. In other words, eight men have come to bat and only one of them has hit the ball. That was Lee Walsh who popped up. The other man walked. Curve is fouled away by Pitcher dry at Owen 1. Drought batting 2 11. Koufax is remarkable with his strikeouts this year. Figure out how many innings he's pitched and then look at his strikeout. You really start to shake your head. The strike one pitch to drive, curveball low one and one. Sandy has struck out six men tonight thus far in two and a third innings to give him 53 strikeouts. Now let's check his innings,

[Vince Gulley]

his work,

[Jerry Doggett]

44 and the third inning struck out 53 men. The one one fastball cut on and belted to left field. And back goes Amros away. Back to the wall and grabs it going away. Don't pitch your dick, drot. It's a long fly ball to left center. Four. The second out. Bobby Morgan struck out in the first inning. Bob batting.277. Brooklyn 3, Chicago nothing in the third inning. Cavanella settling now back of the plate to hang out his side. Morgan waiting the outfield about straightaway. Koufax sends him a fastball for a strike on one. You know the record, of course, for the most I gots in one game. I'm pretty sure at least you'd know the name of the fellow did it in one game. He doesn't play anymore, but he just retired. Strike one pitch, cut on, hit off the thumbs and popped up in a very shallow left. Amros comes running in under it now and takes it for the out. Oh, Morgan pops out to shallow left field. The Cubs go out north of 1, 2, 3. Colfax has retired the last eight men in a row. The guy who struck out 18 was Bob Feller. And now here's Jerry.

[Vince Gulley]

You know, folks, the Schaefer people have been brewing their famous beer for 115 years now. It's America's old oldest lager beer. But that doesn't mean you can't get it in the newest of containers.

Last of the third. Duke Snyder, Gino Simoli and Gil Hodges do up for Brooklyn. Score Dodgers, 3, Cubs nothing. Back to play. And here again is Vin.

[Jerry Doggett]

Talking about strikeouts now since they might very well become a very important part of the game. Dick Drota struck out four. Sandy Colfax has struck out the National League record for the total of strikeouts, 23 in a game. The American League record 24. The most strikeout by an individual in one game. Bob Feller struck out 18. The National League record is 17 by Dizzy Dean. You might be thinking about those things, so we pass them along to you, all right? Bottom of the third, three nothing. Brooklyn, Duke, Snyder, Gino Simoleon, Gil Hunt. Snyder walked in the first inning. Duke batting 245. Rod has a sign now. Dick winds and delivers fastball. Cut on is a high drive to deep center field. Going away. Back near the bleachers. Just watching it, it's gone. Lee Wall just had to let her go. And the ball bounces out of the lower deck of the bleachers. Wall picks it up and throws it in the upper deck.

[Jerry Doggett]

So when does a man hit a home run on the lower deck? Right now. Snyder hit a bullet into the seats. It bounced high in the air back onto the field walls. Caught it just as nice as you please and fired it upstairs in the upper deck. So Snyder hits his 10th home run, his 21st run batted in. The Dodgers lead four to nothing. And Gino Simoli takes a pitch inside. It drives him out of there. Ball one. That's only the second hit for Brooklyn. The other, a double by Campanella. Got winds. And the 10 pitch is Shimoli.

[Vince Gulley]

A fastball outside.

[Jerry Doggett]

Ball 2, 2 0, Schaefer Beer sending you all the fun and excitement from Ebbets Field and Brooklyn. Four nothing. Dodgers here in the first third. The two zero pitch to Sooli. Fast ball down low.

[Vince Gulley]

Ball three three and Odd Wines.

[Jerry Doggett]

And the three zero pitch to Simoli at his knees and over for the strike. 3 and 1 on deck. Gil Hodges. Brooklyn, four runs on two hits.

[Vince Gulley]

Chicago.

[Jerry Doggett]

No runs, no hits. One error. That a throwing error by catcher Cal Nieman. 31 pitch. Fastball fouled away. Trickling on over into the cub dugout. 3 and 2. Got checks aside now. The three two pitch to Simole. Drives him back high and tight. Ball four. So Simole walks. That is the fifth walk given up by Dick Drot. Koufax, who has struck out six, has not walked a man. The batter, Gil Hodges, who walked in the first inning. Gil back landing 3:44, nobody out here in the third. Brooklyn 4, Chicago nothing. Dot looks in to get his sign. Right at the bag is Simoli held on by Dale Long. Now the right hander, delivers fastball, cut on and missed 2 and 1. I think Hodges trying to go to right field that time.

[Vince Gulley]

The way he moved his feet, he

[Jerry Doggett]

certainly had right fielder Frank O Negativity thinking that way. For he was heading towards the foul line on one account. One of the big reasons why Hodges is now a fine hitter, the fact that he'd been able to hit that pitch to right. Strike one pitch to him. Curveball, cut on, hit to left center. On the run, coming over his walls, bends down and traps the ball. Samoli is around second, going to third and will beat the throw. And down to third goes Hydra Hodges. Lee Walsh tried to backhand the ball at his ankles. And all he could do was trap it. So Hodges doubled. Simole, of course, had to hold up and now gets as far as third. Well, the Dodgers have three hits off Dick Dross, two doubles and a home run. They have runners at second and third with nobody out in the battle, Roy Campanello, who doubled in two runs in the first inning. Jim Brosnan gets up now in the Chicago Bullfens and begins to loosen up. Big right hander Campanella hitting.245. The infield must play in tight now. Nobody out. Simole at third, Hodges at second. Four nothing. Brooklyn here in the third inning. They're trying to break it wide open. Got to his wind up and delivers. And Cavadalla is hit by the pitch in the ribs, on the left side, just under his number. Doc Wendler comes out and boy, that hurts. A fastball right in the rib. So Cavadiello with his left hand holding his ribs, walking up along first. Walter Olson comes out now, and Wendler refuses to let Cavanello walk. He stops him right there. Boy, that thing hurt. Down was a sidearm fastball that just sailed right in at him and hit him right at the ribs. Roy bent over slightly. Doc Wendler with his arm around him, though. More complications. You know, Rube Walker has a couple of stitches on his right hand. Cavanaugh trying to breathe. And I imagine every time he does, there's a sharp bite of pain. Doc Wendler, Jake Butler and Walter Olson watching. The catcher still rubbing his left side. He has his back to us. I'm pretty sure he got it right in the ribs. Roy wants to stay in the ball game. Starting to go to first now. Carl Erskine comes out to run for him. And Erskine continues on towards first base. So whether Campanella likes it or not, they want him to come out. Roy, of course, likes to play, but he's hurting. Yep, he got it on the left side, probably just under the heart. And Capanella comes out. He's walking a little better now, but boy, he was shaken up. So. Dick Grott with a fastball. It's Campanelli in the chest or the left side near the ribs. And he comes out. Erskine running for him. The bases are loaded, nobody out. And the batter, Charlie Neal, the infield, remains up tight. Simoleon third, Hodges at second. Erskine at first. Drop delivers fastball, cut foul to the roof and out of the ballpark.

[Vince Gulley]

Oh, and one.

[Jerry Doggett]

Roy Campanella hit either in the just under the heart or around the ribs. Erskine running for him. And Rube Walker with a couple of stitches in his right hand, will still come back into the ball game. Neil waiting. Drive winds in the strike, one pitch. Curve fouled away. 02. Going through to Neil. Nobody out.

[Vince Gulley]

Base is loaded.

[Jerry Doggett]

4 nothing.

[Vince Gulley]

Brooklyn in the third.

[Jerry Doggett]

Drot delivers Sidearm Curve it through the hole into left field for a base hit. In comes Simoli. Right back of him is Hodges. And the Dodgers lead, lead six nothing. Charlie Neal bounces one through the drawn in left side, then drives in two. The Dodgers didn't score this many runs in the entire trip through Pennsylvania. And here in the third inning they lead six to nothing. O' Neill with a base hit and two runs by today. Bob Cheffing going out to the mound. And maybe we'll have a change right here. Samoli scoring from third base. Hodges coming in from second. That's the fourth hit of Dick Drot sheffing making his way out to the mound. Cal Nieman is there, Carl Erskine at second, Charlie Neal at first. Brooklyn, six runs on four hits. Chicago. No runs, no hits.

[Vince Gulley]

We're in the bottom of the third.

[Jerry Doggett]

Brooklyn scored three times in the first inning, three times in the third, and still nobody out here in the third. We'll have a change of pictures. And while we do have. Suppose we duck in a station break. Make everything legal. We'll pause the station identification. This is the Brooklyn Dodgers Radio Network

[Jerry Doggett]

Well, by Garrett Ebbers Field. With the Dodgers leading six to nothing, Dick Drot worked two innings plus. He relieved by Jim Brosnan. Drought in two innings plus gave up six runs. The run is at first and second also belong to him.

[Vince Gulley]

Drot.

[Jerry Doggett]

Six runs, four hits. He walked five men. Of course, that was his undoing. He hit one man, Campanella. And while we're talking about Campanella, wondering whether the ball hit him in the ribs or under the heart, we now have the report from the dugout that it hit him just under the or over the heart. Right around that area. It really stunned him. Oh, Cambodulla out. Jim Brosnan warming up now to take over for Drought. He'll be pitching to Zimmer, Colfax and Amoroz. I'll give you a Brosnan's record this year, but Gary will tell you a little bit about him before we get back to the ball game.

[Vince Gulley]

Jim's a pretty good sized boy, Vinny, 6 4, weighs 215 pounds. And he was with Chicago last year. He won five and lost nine. He was with the Cubs for a brief while in 1954. He had a 10 record in the National League. He's been playing mostly in double A, Triple A and then in major leagues for those two shots that we told you about 1954 and last year with the Cubs he was in 30 ball games, five wins and nine losses. His lifetime major league record is six and nine. So, Jim Brosnan. I replace Dick Grot. Grot, going out with a record of 3, 5 and is now behind six to nothing in two innings. Plus six runs, four hits, four strikeouts and five walks. So don Zimmer steps in now to face the new big right hander. Let's get back to play. And here again it's been.

[Jerry Doggett]

I'll add a new line to the history book on Jim Brosnan. This is his 12th appearance for the Cubs. He started once. He is 0 and 1 with the league. B R O S N A n Jim Brosnan. Brooklyn 6, Chicago nothing. Nobody out in the third inning. Carl Erskine running for Campana that second. Charlie Neala just chased in two runs with a base.

[Vince Gulley]

Hitters end at the first.

[Jerry Doggett]

Don Zimmer struck out in the second inning. Brosnan checks his runners, now comes to the plate. Overhand fastball cut on and missed. The ball gets away from Neiman. But not far enough for the runners to advance on one account in the Dodger bullpen. And G. It could be quite a night. Joe Pignettano is a Brooklyn boy. He has not caught a pitch in the major leagues and he's very close to it. He appeared as a fence runner, but he's never been behind the plate. Wouldn't it be a great thing to have the boy in the game tonight? If the Dodgers, with this comfortable lead of six nothing, might very well decide now to give him a chance. The on one fits to Don Zimmer.

[Vince Gulley]

Curveball.

[Jerry Doggett]

It's slowly to third. Banks up with it, goes back to Morgan. They get one on to first in time for the double play. And down to third goes Carl Erskine. Oh, the double play. Five to four to three three. Say, I'll tell you what. You might know the pig nos if you do. Maybe his wife taking care of the baby. Not watching or listening to the ball game. Give her a call. Looks like Joe's going to break into the major leagues tonight. Sandy Kag's coming up struck.

[Jerry Doggett]

Out in the second inning. He's over 11. Two out on the third inning. Six nothing, Brooklyn. Carl Erskine now at third base, running for Campanella. Brosnan winds and delivers. And the curveball a little high. Ball one. Pretty sure I saw Pignetano putting on the gear. Cavanella hit under the heart with a fastball. Had to come out. Rube Walker has a couple of stitches in his hand. He could play. But the Dodgers leading six nothing in the third. Might let Fig Negotano catch. Curve is down low. Ball two. That'd be real nice. Two balls, no strikes. The two and oh pitch to Koufax. He runs up and looks at it's in for a strike. Two and one. Boy Joe's got a little baby boy who might very well put on the gear and go back of the plate. Boy, what a stocky kid.

[Vince Gulley]

Wow,

[Jerry Doggett]

his dad might get in tonight. Brosnan ready in the two. One pitch. Fastball on the outside corner.

[Vince Gulley]

Two and two.

[Jerry Doggett]

Two down, bottom of the third inning. Brooklyn 6, Chicago nothing. Yes, it's kind of a one sided game thus far, but you have a couple of things going. Sandy Koufax has struck out six men. He is not allowed a hit. He has not walked anybody. Pignetano might break into the majors, so stay right with us. Fastball is low. Ball three. Full count to Sandy. Jim Brosnan in relief of Dick Draught. Tomorrow night will be at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City. Don Drysdale and don Kaiser.

[Vince Gulley]

The 3, 2 pitch to Koufax.

[Jerry Doggett]

Fastball in there. Sandy's caught looking and strikes out for the second time for the Dodgers in the third inning. They pick up three more runs. There were three hits, a home run, a double and a Single, one man left on and one man hit by a pitch. Campanolo had to leave and Joe Pignetano is putting on the gears. So welcome to the club, Joe, and lots of luck. Carl Erskine stopping to talk to him right now while Pignetano, a Brooklyn boy, finally plants his spikes back a home plate and takes a few warm ups.

[Vince Gulley]

[Jerry Doggett]

Let's check with our Shaper scoreboard. Milwaukee and the Giants at the end of two and a half innings of play. Milwaukee 3 in the Giants 2. Ray cone for Milwaukee for the Giants.

[Vince Gulley]

Thanks, Ben. And again everyone bought Bob Speak. Coming on now for Chicago to face Sandy Koufax. Six strikeouts, one walk and no base. Hits off Sandy Dodger 6 and the Cubs nothing. First of a three game series. The middle game will be tomorrow night at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City. And the finale back here at Ebbets Field on Thursday night. Pignetano gives a sign and here's the pitch. Fastball comes low from Koufax. One ball, no strikes on Bob's feet. Speak hitting in the number two spot, hitting at 243. Ernie Banks on deck and Lee Walls down in the hole. The wind up in the 10 pitch, in for strike. Fastball. That's 1 1. One ball, one strike to Bob Speak. The Cubs have had one man on Speak. Walked in the first inning. Sandy checks the sign, winds and fires. The pitch is low.

[Jerry Doggett]

For ball.

[Vince Gulley]

And the count goes 2 and 1. Two balls, one strike. The Dodgers got three in the first and three more in the third off starter Dick Drot, who then was relieved by Jim Brosnan. Strike two with a fastball over the plate at the knees. And it's a 2, 2 it. Charlie the hill wide of third in a step or two against the left hand batter. Speak waiting. Here's the 2, 2 pitch. A bouncer foul down the first baseline. Handled in the first place coaching box by Freddy Fitzsimmons Calhoun. A 2, 2 on Bob speak. Dodgers home after a long road trip. The western trip was interrupted by three games here at Ebbwitts Field against the Giants. And then back they went to Pennsylvania for some more on the road. And now back home for 15 games in 13 days. A couple of big double hitters coming on. We will tell you about those a little later. Two, two. Kofak shakes off a sign from Pignetano, gets another one. The wind up in the two, two pitch. Fastball just missed the outside. Cornered at three, two. So a full count on Bob speaks, number 11, left hand batter. 3 and 2. Go back. Takes his time. The wind up. And here's the pitch. High fly ball to right field. Simole backs up waiting now and moves in a step or two and makes the play for the out. One away. Speaks guys out high to right. One up, one down. And here's Ernie Banks coming on. One down, swinging. First time. Ernie off to a slow start for him this year, hitting just a.229. He has five home runs and 15 runs batted in. Banks to Battery with Walls on deck and Frank Renega to follow. One out and on fourth inning, Dodger six, Chicago Cubs nothing. The Cubs in seventh place, just a half game ahead of the Pirates. Trying to stay out of the coal hole is a bounder foul. Past third. Strike one. Nothing in one to Bo Banks. Koufax gets a new one to work with now. Ignitano replaced Campanella. Punked in the ribs, above the ribs by fastball from Dick Draught. Campy had to retire from the game. Here's the O1 pitch by Koufax. Curveball swung on. A miss. Strike two. Sandy pulled the string very well. That time changed up and Banks was fooled. Nothing in two. One out. And then on fourth inning, Sandy ready. The wind up and pitch. Fastball got him swinging. Down goes Banks for the second time tonight. And for Koufax, strikeout number seven. So in three and two thirds innings, Koufax now has chalked up seven strikeouts. Which is a better pace than he had when he struck out the 13 Cubs out at Wrigley Field. Lee Wells coming on, popped out his first time and is hitting.224. Center fielder Lee Wall. Two outs, none on fourth inning. Cubs have had just one base runner. Speak who walked in the first inning. Slow curve is up high. And it's ball one, Dodger six, Cubs nothing. Top of the fourth inning at field and Schaefer beer. Happy to send it to you tonight. Hope you enjoy the game. We know you'll enjoy Schaefer. Fastball. Strike one. Count. Evens now one one on Lee Walls. Walls bluffed a bunch that time and Charlie Neal came charging in from third. It's Neil Zimmer, Gilliam and Hodges on the Dodger infield as the outfield amorous Snyder and Samoli. Pignettano catching and Koufax pitching. Here's the one one pitch. Up high with a fast ball. It's ball two, two and one. Two outs done on fourth innings. Chicago at bat. Koufax checks again with Pignetano, delivers. The fast ball, is low and outside. Ball three. Three and one to Lee Walls. Well, a big set coming up over the weekend. Friday night, Saturday afternoon and Sunday, a doubleheader. Cincinnati Red Legs coming to town over the weekend. We hope you've got your tickets and plan to be here. That'll be a big set. 3. One pitch on the way. Ball 4. Up high. Walk in. So Walls is on. That's walk number two given up by Sandy Koufax. Second base winner for for Chicago and Frank Renega coming on. Two outs, one on Ornega. The batter struck out first time, hitting.333. Koufax now working out of the stretch for the second time tonight. Shakes off a sign, gets a new one. So outs one on Cubs batting pitch. Fastball for strike on the outside corner, knee high. Oh, and one to Frank Grega. E R N A G A Frank brought up just after the season open from Portland. Nothing in one pitch, Curveball high with a bill of a cap and a small one. Even count now one ball one. Strike, One and one. Walls playing it close to the bag at first. Hodges holding him on curveball for strike two. Orega had a nosen checked his swing and it's cost him one ball, two strikes. The Cubs right fielder, Frank Kaga, should he get on day along, is due next one and two count. Koufax checks again, delivers a wild pitch, gets five. Signal back to the wire. And down to second base goes Wall. Makes his turn there and holds on a signetonicle back to the screen to retrieve a high one. And it's a wild pitch.

Charged against Sandy Koufax. Pigment hunter. Just able to get a tip of the glove on it and couldn't slow it down. So the Cubs have a man at second with two out walls on there. And DA has a two, two. Turn, two on the batters. Two outs and a man on his second Dodger six, Cubs nothing. Top of the fourth. Now the check by Koufax. And here's his pitch. Fastball high again. Ball free throw. The count to Ora. 4, 3, 2. Walls moves off second. Koufax ready? Three, two count. Here's the pitch. Get him swinging. Down he goes. Side retired for Kofax. Strikeout number eight in four innings. So he's been rolling along here with an average of two for innings. Died out in the fourth inning for the Cub. No runs, no hits, no errors. And they left one man on. So at the end three and a half innings of wide play, it's the Dodgers six, Chicago Cubs, nothing. And now here's Vince.

[Jerry Doggett]

Well, isn't it a fact, friends, as many times as your favorite player comes through in the clutch, you always get a kick out of it. Does your heart good every time. Well, let me tell you about something else that'll do your heart good every single time. And I'm talking about a tall, cool glass of Shaffer beer. Yes, Sir, Shaffer is beer at its best in any man's league. It's got to be because Schaefer is brewed for enjoyment. Brewed to give you all a zesty, satisfying flavor you want, but don't always find. The Shaffer folks select rich barley malt, tangy hops and other fine, natural ingredients. Then they add their own special ingredient, the brewing skill that comes from 115 years of experience. So for real enjoyment, how about having a tall, foaming glass of shake for beer right about now, and you'll agree about Shaper and his real beer.

[Vince Gulley]

Scroll Post.

[Jerry Doggett]

Here's mud in your eyes. Last of the fourth inning, Brooklyn. Six runs, four hits and no effort. But another story is building up now, for the Cubs have been at bat for four innings and Koufax is not allowed a hit and has struck out eight. So you stay right where you be and listen to Jerry.

[Vince Gulley]

Okay, Vinnie. Top of the fourth inning, it'll be Sandy Amorous, Jim Gilliam and Duke Snyder coming on. Amoros has walked and popped out. Jim Brosnan came on to relieve starter Dick Drought in the third and got Zimmer to bounce in a double play and struck out Koufax. So he quieted the noise. Dodgers three in the first and three in the third. So here we go now, the last half of the fourth inning. Jim Brosnan warming up with catcher Cal Ne. And now Amarillo steps in, and we're ready to go. Last of the fourth inning, Brosnan in the wind up. And here's the pitch to Sandals. Curveball drops into for a strike. Sandy hitting 3:14, Gilliam on deck, and then Snider to follow. Strike one count. Big Jim delivers a pie ball. One count, evens one one to Amar. The Chicago defense moves around to the right to play Amarillo's pull. Here's the 11 pitch. Curve again. High outside, ball two. Two and one. Banks is wide of third. And in a step or two, shortstop Jack Luttrell shading second just a bit. Morgan and long, deep on the right side. And the outfield moved around a bit to the right to play against Sandy. Two on pitch. Down it comes. Curve. The trip for strike at the knees. And it's 22 to AMROs. 2 2. Here's the pitch, a bouncer off to the right side coming on fast forward as Morgan is played a few. First is in time, and it's one away. Amaro throws out, second to first. So we have one up, one down. And oncoming is Junior Gilliam. Walk scored a run and grounded out at the end of four and a half innings. Philadelphia 3, Cincinnati nothing. Milwaukee now has taken the lead on the Giants at the end of four and a half. Four to three. Gilliam hitting 2. Success. The big right hitter Texas sign with catcher Cal Neiman. Here's the wind up and pitch. Fastball skipped from the dirt at the plate. Ball one banks in a bit closer now than he was on. Amoro still wide of the bag. Guarding against a month possibility from Junior. Here's the wind up in the pitch. And Junior ran up to about it. Let it go. And it's costing for a strike. 1 1. One and one to Gilliam. The wind up and pitch. Curveball in for a strike on the inside corner. Gilliam taking. And it's one and two. One out, none. On last of the fourth, Dodgers six, Cubs nothing. First of a three game series. Opening a long home span for Brooklyn. Fastball is high on outside. Ball two. Two two. Now. Turn two to Gilliam. One out and on to wind up in the pitch. Curveball bounce foul down the right field line. All the way to the Brooklyn bullpen. And the count to Gilliam holds at 2 and 2 as Brosnan gets the new one. Now rubs it. 2, 2 pitch on the way. The roller hips go wide of first base. Over Ford goes Morgan. Makes his play it along in time. And it's two gone. Gilliam rolls out, as did Amaro. Second to first, two up and two down. And here comes Snyder. Here's a further report on Campanella. Examined by the team physician, Dr. Kubiak and reporter. That he was okay. The doc examined his ribs, his heart, that everything's all right. Had the wind knocked out of him and it's going to be a little sore, but should be able to play by tomorrow. So a good report on Campy. Plunked in the ribs earlier by a dick. Dropped fastball. Fits the Snyder on the inside corner for a call. Strike. Snyder has walked to the home run. He's 1 for 1 and scored twice, hitting.250. Oh one count. Here's the pitch. Fastball outside. Ball one. One ball one. Strike on Duke Snyder. Gino Simoli on deck, two out. Fourth inning, Dodgers six, Cubs nothing. Gosnan into the lineup. And down at C comes Duke. Takes the fastball at penis for a strike two and it's one and two. One ball, two strikes. Bron has re has faced four batters, retired the ball. He got Zimmer with two on and got him to hit the double play. Then struck out Koufax in the third. Got AMROs and Gilliam on rollers here. Snyder swings a hot one past first foul and the count stays at one and two two. The Pirates lead the Cardinals one to nothing at the end of two and a half innings of play. Yankees six, Cleveland one through three innings of play at Cleveland tonight. One and two the count to Duke. Snider two outsman on. Dodgers six, Cubs nothing. Gosling into the wind. Up and down it comes. Curveball high and it's ball two. Even count now to do two and two. Two balls, two strike. Big Jim winds and fires to Duke. Swings and chops at foul. Rolling back behind the plate into the Dodger dugout. Held account holds a 2 2. Tomorrow night these same clubs play at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City and then back again to Ebbets Field on Thursday. Friday night, Saturday afternoon and Sunday a doubleheader with Cincinnati here at Ebbets Field. Here's the pitch. Swung on, a miss. Strike three. Snyder going for a slow curve is out on strike for bron. Strikeout number two. And that is the 14th strikeout in the ball game. Pilots. Man, your face flying off is okay for Pilots, but don't you go flying off in all directions when it comes to buying a car.

His curve is low for a ball. And it's one ball, no strike.

[Jerry Doggett]

Yours free for the asking.

[Vince Gulley]

Be sure to give your name and address. Write Baseball Woko, Albany, NY. Fly ball, hit the left. Sandy Amorous moving in and coming toward the lineup. And he's there waiting and makes his play for the out. Two away. Luttrell. Skies to left and Jim Brosnue up. We'll see if he's going to bat. Goes to get a helmet so it looks like he's going to come on. Two outs, one on long. Started the inning with a walk, and Brosnan now will be the hitter. Goes to the bat rack to pick one out. Getting a batting helmet right now. Here he comes. Dodgers. Six runs on, four hits the Cubs. No runs on, no hits. Chicago with one error. A throwing error by Cal Neiman in the first inning. That got in the first run of the ball game. So here's Brosnan up now with two outs and one on top of the fifth. Sandy delivers the fastball, is in for a strike. Koufax has recorded at least one strikeout in every inning up to now. He got two in the first, three in the second, one in the third and two in the fourth. Total of eight. Fastball outside ball one count evens to Brosnan. One and one one. Joe Pignetta during the catching, Campanella plunked in the ribs in the third inning. Had to leave the ball game, but the doctor reports that he's okay. Just going to be a little sore for a day or so. The one one pitch, foul back. Straight back to the wire. Strike two. One and two. The pitcher, Jim Brosnan. Dale Long wandering around off first. Hodges, kind of ignoring him now, moves up. Hold him on one and two. Here's the pitch. Curveball high. And it's ball two. Even count now. Two. 2. Sandy Koufax ready again, checks the 22 pitch slack 3 called on the outside corner. So Sandy keeps the string going and now has nine strikeouts in five innings for the Cub in the top of the fifth inning. No runs, no hits, no errors and one man left on. So at the end of four and a half innings of play, the score, the Dodgers six, Chicago nothing. And now, friends, a word from Al Helper. For some time or other we've all watched the third base coach flashing signs. But did you ever watch old Jerry Daggett here flashing his signs? He's got his hand held out, palm up. Well, that means less my Luckies at home can a mooch one a beaming smile, huh? Well, that's Jerry's sign that he's got his Lucky and he's enjoying it right now. What else? Oh, no, the Lucky is all fine tobacco. There couldn't be anything else. Naturally. Good tasting tobacco that's toasted to taste even better. Well, say, what's he signaling now? Oh, I got a Jerry. Let's all light up our Lucky. That's a good idea for the taste that you like. Lighter or light?

[Howie Mandel]

Lucky strike.

[Vince Gulley]

You'll say a Lucky is the best tasting cigarette you ever smoked. We move into the last half of any number five at Ebb Field. Gino Soole will be the first spin up. Then comes Hodges. And then comes Pignetano. Go, sir. Jerry ready to go. Al. That lucky fired and going. Got it going. Hold it just a minute now. I gotta put a match to it, then we'll be ready to roll. Simole has struck out and walked. And it scored. Gino hitting at 3:43 on the mound, Big Jim Brosnan into the wind up and the pitch comes to Samoli. Geno checked up and took it low. A ball, one, nothing. Now I'm ready. What are you going to do with the other one on the other side? You got two of them lit now? Oh, I didn't smoke them two at a time. 2, 3, 5 or 6. You can't improve on the flavor though. Boy, they're all fine. The best tasting cigarette you ever smoke. Here's a little pitch to Gino. Again, he checks and it's ball too. Curve outside. Two balls, no strike. Dodger six, Cubs nothing. Bottom of the fifth. Moly with a hot bat.432 average in his last 11 ball games. Here's the pitch. Top foul, back of the plate. Neiman turns and watches it sail in the upper deck. And it's 2:1. Calls, one strike to Gino Simoli batting. The cleanup spot. Draws and ready. Here's the pitch. Curveball in high and on the letters. Ball three. Three and one to Gino. Here's the pitch. Swing of a drive to left field. Belved back foot goes the left fielder. Speak and makes the grab in front of the wall. Gino gave it a ride deep to left field. But Speak was there to make the play. So Savoli lines left one away and on comes Hutches. Gill has walked and doubled, has scored tw. Draws and ready now pitches to Hodges. Fastball on the inside corner. Strike one.

And now that you're calm and healing, you're probably driving better too.

[Vince Gulley]

Strike 1. Count the wind up of the pitch. Low for ball. And the count goes one and one. Last of the fifth inning, we have one out. Dodgers batting leading six to nothing over Chicago. First of a 15 game homestand. One ball, one strike. Here's the pitch. Fly ball to deep center field. Backboard goes w way back Back, back and forget it. That's a home run for Hod. Gil Hodges hit one far and deep into the lower stands in left center field. A long way away, and it's his seventh of the year. And for the veterans at the VA Hospital, Montrose, New York. Another thousand free Luckies. Along with that home run. Here's Joe Pitano up for his first at bat. Joe got in the ball game in the third and now got to take a look at major league pitching last year at St. Paul. Joe hit.295. Ball one to him. Swings on a curve and it's strike one. One and one. So far in our ball game tonight, we've sent along 3,000 Luckies to the veterans at Montrose Hospital, have a quota of 34,000, and now have received 29 of the 34,000 quota. Curveball bites in the dirt and bounces away from Neiman and the Pignettano. It's ball two and strike one, the Dodgers seven and the Cubs nothing. Gill's been on a real bench here lately. Two on homer's, two doubles, two walks in. His last six times to the plate. That's pretty good. Four for four and he's been on base six times. Joe takes a strike at the knees. And it's two. Two to Pignetano. 2 and 2 as Brosnan goes into the wind. Up. And here's his pitch. A swing and a drive to right field. Base hit for Picnitano. One big bounce in front of Renega. Coacho Ozan slamming over the head of second baseman Bobby Morgan. And a nice round of applause for the Brooklyn catcher. Joe Pignettano on with a single. And here comes Charlie Neal. Charlie struck out and single to drive in a pair. So he's 1 for 2, hitting at.274. The home run by Hodges was the first one allowed by Brosnan, in fact, was the first baserunner. Big Jim checks first. Pignatano leads off. And here's the pitch to Neil.

[Jerry Doggett]

Down low.

[Vince Gulley]

Ball one. We're in the bottom of the fifth inning. One out, one on. Dodgers seven, Cubs nothing. Philadelphia 3, Cincinnati nothing through six and a half. Fastball outside side. Ball two. Two balls, no strikes. Pignetano on first. Charlie Neal waiting. Don Zimmer on deck. Infield up a step or two. Double play depth. Fastball low and it's ball free to Neil. Three. Oh, the count to Charlie Neal. Here's the look in the pitch. Ball 4. Hyatt inside bends him back. And Neal is on with a walk off Brosnan. Walk number one. And off Chicago Pitching, the Dodgers have now received five free passes. There are the six. Five off, drop and one off Brosnan. Here's Don Zimmer up now, called out on strikes and wrapped into a double play, hitting.226. Pignitano on second and Neil on it. First one out. Here's the pitch. Curveball lowing away. Ball one. Dodgers three in the first, three in the third, and one now in the fifth with two on and one out. So the Dodgers have been using the odd innings tonight to get their runs. Rosman ready, checks and delivers. Foul ball straight back. And it's one and one to Zimmer. Sandy Koufax due up next with Sandy. Amros comes out in the on deck circle at the end of six. The Giants five, Milwaukee four. End of six and a half. Philadelphia three and Cincinnati nothing. Here's the pitch to Zimmer. High and outside, ball to 2 and 1. Harvey Haddocks doing the work for Philadelphia and hanging goose eggs on red legs. Up to now, Two on count. Zimmer waiting, two on Pignetano o' Neal at second and first. Brosnan delivers, Zim swings, a high pop line to center field. Coming on forward as Walls and cutting in from right as Omega. Walls calls and almost overran the ball. Stops and leaned back to make the grab. So Zimmer out on a top fly into center field. Two away now. Sandy Koufax goes to the bat rack to get a helmet and a bat. And up he comes. Nice hand for Sandy, who through five innings has allowed no runs and no hits to Chicago and just three base runners while striking out nine. Manly having quite an evening so far. Koufax swings left, waiting now for Bronson to get set. Two on, two out. Here's the pitch. Foul ball, straight back.

[Jerry Doggett]

Strike one.

[Vince Gulley]

Got to give Sandy a cheer as he got a piece of the ball. Sandy is over 12 tonight. He has struck out twice. And I think that he struck out now 10 out of 12 times. That about right, Allen? Eight out of eight out of 12. Here's the pitch. Curveball in tight. And it's ball one. One and one to Koufax. Dodger seven, Cubs nothing. Last of the fifth inning. Two outs, two on. Jim Brosnan. The second Chicago hurler replaced Vic Dracht in the third. The 11 pitch, a liner hit right to the second baseman, Morgan, who makes the grab. And here's what happened on the play. Morgan had come over to buff the runner, Pignoteno. And he was going back as Brosnan pitched. Had he not been over there the ball would have gone through the middle for a base hit for Koufax. So Sandy can say that he was robbed.

[Jerry Doggett]

If it's value you want, then it's value you'll get. When you trade at Rose Oldsmobile, take a tip from a friend that you'll never regret. If you're looking for a really good

[Vince Gulley]

used car, Rose Oldsmobile, the Capital District's

[Jerry Doggett]

[Vince Gulley]

a car than just price. You want to be sure the deal

[Jerry Doggett]

you make is the best deal for you. And you want to be sure the

[Vince Gulley]

dealer stands behind it.

[Jerry Doggett]

You can be sure when you deal with Rose Oldsmobile.

[Vince Gulley]

At the corner of Central and Manning in Albany.

[Jerry Doggett]

Rose Oldsmobile sells the best late model used cars.

[Vince Gulley]

Good, reliable used cars traded on brand new, old Smart.

[Jerry Doggett]

And these late model beauties are priced right. So when you think of value in

[Vince Gulley]

used cars, think of price.

[Jerry Doggett]

Think of the deal you can make.

[Vince Gulley]

Think of the firm's reputation.

[Jerry Doggett]

When you think of value in these terms, you are sure to think of

[Vince Gulley]

Rose Oldsmobile, corner of Central and Manning in Albany. And for the next four purchasers of the yearbook, the same gift. A pair of box seats. That's 10 box seats in all. Waiting for five lucky purchasers of the Dodger yearbook. That Dodger Yearbook, Box 119, Brooklyn 1, New York. Maybe you'll be the recipient of a pair of box seats. Order your book. Right away, Into the sixth inning we go. Jerry, that's Morgan up there. How about it? Ready to go. Sandy Koufax into the wind. Up. And here's his pitch. Fastball for a strike. In at the knees, and it's nothing in one. Koufax, with nine strikeouts, has walked free and allowed no runs and no hits to the Cubs. Top of the sixth inning. Bobby Morgan, the leadoff man, takes the curveball inside. And it's ball one. Even camp now, one and one. Joe Pignettano behind the plate, down to give the sign. Charlie Neal edging in at third. Just in case Morgan should think about running the 1. 1 pitch. Bouncer foul, past third and off the box seat. Ready? Preamble for it. The man fell out of the sands going after one ball. Two strikes on Bobby Morgan. He fell out of the sand to get the ball and the park policeman come down to retrieve it. You can't come on the field to get him. You got to stay in the sand. When you fall out of there, that's too Bad, of course, that draws a round of booze. The 12 pitch by Koufax. Foul ball right straight back and it's still one. And Sandy Koufax leading the league in strikeouts, really blazing them in nine and five innings so far tonight at the end of seven. The Phillies 3, Cincinnati Nothing. Milwaukee tied it up on the Giants with one in the seventh. Five, five. Top of the seventh. Curveball. Just list inside and it's ball too.

[Vince Gulley]

Liberty.

[Jerry Doggett]

Liberty.

[Vince Gulley]

Liberty. Liberty. Turn to the Morgan. Speak is on deck with Ernie Banks down in the hole. Pitches low for a ball and the count goes three and two now. Full count to Bobby Morgan. 3 and 2 in the fifth inning. Koufax walked the first batter, Long, but then got the side out and Long died at first. Three. Two pitch on the way. Ball four, low and inside. He walked him. Colt from Koufax. Walk number four. And again, leadoff man is on. And Bob Speak comes on. He walks and flat out in two tries. None for one. First pitch, comes down to Speak. Low for ball and it's one. Nothing. Dodger 7, Cubs nothing. We're in the sixth inning. Sandy Koufax checks his runner, checks his time now and goes out of a stretch. Delivers the speed. Strike called with a curve on the corner. And it's one and one. Brooklyn got three in the first, three in the third and one in the fifth. Charlie Neal playing it in at third with a left hand. Batter up there. Zimmer and Gilliam. Halfway and double. Plate up. Hodges holding the runner on. Now backs off. Here's the pitch. Pop up around the plate. Foul Backboard comes Pignettano back to the wire, but it's upping the screen out of play. So it's a ball and two. Strike count now to Bob Speak. Joe Pignetano in the ball game. Campanello plunked in the chest by pitched by Dick Drotin. The third had to leave the ball game. Rube Walker has a couple of stitches in his right hand. So Pignettano gets into his first major league ball game here tonight. The Brooklyn boy handling the slant of Sandy Koufax, giving the Dodgers an all Brooklyn Battery for the first time and I guess a long time. Here's the 1, 2 pitch. Curve up high from the ball. 2, 2 and 2. Actually the second game that Joe's been in, but the first game that he's caught. He was in as a pinch runner earlier. 2, 2. Koufax eyes Morgan at first base, now delivers to the plate. Ball 3. The fastball just inside. So again, a full count here on Bob Speak. Kofak working away. He's walked four and struck out nine. Now Pignetano goes out to have a talk. Joe is rated a very capable receiver. And last year he had a good batting average at St. Paul. In 81 games he had 295. His peak year was in 1953 at Asheville, North Carolina. He had 3, 16, 3 and 2. Sandy Koufax out of a stretch. Here's the pitch for speed. A drive to right field. That one's tagged. That one is well hit. And over the wall. A home run for Bob Speak and two run score for Chicago in the first hit of the ball game off Sandy Koufax. As Bob Speak hit a low fastball on the free two pitch and gave it a golf shot over the screen and right field, out into Bedford Avenue. So the Cubs pick up a pair. And down the drain goes the no hitter and also the shutout. Two runs on one hit for Chicago. A home run to Bob Speak. Ernie Banks coming off, takes low for a ball. Nobody out, two in, and it's a 72 ball game. And for the home run, Bob Speaks sends along a thousand free Luckies to the veterans at Montrose Hospital. Montrose, New York. One ball, no strike. The curveball to Banks is inside. Ball two. Fanny was rolling along with pretty good control. He had a walk in the first, in the fourth, the fifth, and now in the sixth. But he got behind had to come in with one to speak. On a full count, here's a strike to Banks and it's two and one. Ernie Banks, at that, has struck out twice. Koufax checks the sign from Pignetano. The 2:1 pitch high fly to center field. Snyder drifting in, waits, pounds his glove, comes on in and he's got it for the out. One away. So Banks out on a fly ball to center, and here's Lee Walls. Walls has popped out and walked. Speak and Walls are the only batters that have not gone down swinging before Koufax tonight. Sandy has picked up two on Ernie Banks and Frank Ornega, one on all the others except Speke and Wall. One out. No, no. Here's his pitch. Fastball is outside, ball one. Walls hitting at.224. Walls and long, of course, came to the Cubs and the deal that sent Baker and to Pittsburgh. And right now it appears that the Pirates got the better of it. Especially since Dee Fundy is leading the league in batting with a.367 average. Long is hitting.241 and Wall sitting.224. Here's the pitch. Fastball is in for the strike, and it's one and one. Oddly enough, although the Pirates are last in the league, they have three among the top 10 hitters. Bondi, Groat and Thomas. 1. One pitch, high and inside, ball 2. Kofax with the curveball, lost control of it. Two balls, one strike, six innings. The Cubs have two in, and it's 7 to 2. Dodgers. Neal playing shallow at third against Walls, who might bunt. Ground ball to the left side. Zimmer goes over towards second, plays it across in time for the out throwaway. And up to this point, with two out in the sixth inning, Koufax has chalked up at least one strikeout for inning. But now he comes again to an inning with two outs. Needing to get one to keep the string. Al, The play by Zimmer is the first assist of the ball game. All of the other put outs, fly balls or strikeouts. First assist, there's a fastball for a strike. So we go along for five and two thirds innings before we get the first ground ball. Actually, first assist, two outs, strike one. Count on Frank Ka, who struck out twice. Curve is low for ball and the count is 1 1. Two outs, none on in the inning. Morgan walked and Speak. Had a line drive over the screen and right for a home run. Lucky strike, sending it all to you tonight from Ebbets Field. Fastball outside, ball two. Two and one now to Orne

[Jerry Doggett]

Frank,

[Vince Gulley]

hitting.310, came into tonight's game at.353. But he's only been up there six times. Seventeen times with six hits. Now is six for 19 and looks at a fastball low again. Ball three. So it's three one to Frank Renega. Koufax into the wind up. And here's his pitch. Strike two on the outside corner. It's three and two. Ignitano passes it out and Koufax winds and fires. Strike three. Down he goes. And that's number 10 for Sandy Koufax. And he still has one at least. Won an inning. The third time for Onega. The side out of the six for the Cubs. Two runs, one hit, no errors, and they left none on. So at the end of the top of the sixth inning, the score, the Dodgers, seven, Chicago, two. Al, you ready? Yes, sir. Now for a quick trip to the captain's corner. Captain Peewee, you're up. So far this season, the one thing

[Jerry Doggett]

which has impressed me mostly is the boundary of the league.

[Vince Gulley]

All the clubs are tough now. Several years ago, we never had too much trouble with Pittsburgh, Philadelphia or Chicago.

[Jerry Doggett]

Now every team in the league seems to play like pennant contenders against us. The Giants may not be high in the standings, but when they play us,

[Vince Gulley]

they really get up for the games. I would say the National League this

[Jerry Doggett]

season is the best balance I've ever seen. Should make for great fan appeal.

[Vince Gulley]

Well spoken, Captain Reese. Got a suggestion for you. Before we focus back on the game, fans, light up a Lucky and enjoy the genuine pleasure of a genuine cigarette. You'll say a Lucky is the best tasting cigarette you ever smoked. Now to the last half of inning number six. First man up will be Sandy Amorous. Then we'll have Gilliam and Snyder now have a 7 to 2 ball game in favor of the Brooklyn Dodgers. Sandy Koufax, despite the fact he's given up two runs, is still breathing. Going right along here, firing that fastball. He's stuffing it in, isn't he, Jerry? He's really pouring it out. 10 strikeouts in the ball game for six innings. Amorous waits none for two tonight. Brosnan delivers a high curve. Ball one. Sandy hitting is.308. Came into tonight's game at 320. Popped out, walked and grounded out. The Dodgers have six base hits, good for seven runs. The Cubs have one hit, good for two runs. A curve is in for a strike. And it's 11 to Amor. 1 1. The wind up and pitch. Curveball. Bell it into center field walls. Now turns and drifts back, forward, back, back, back near the track. He's got it for the out.

terms applying deep to center for the first out in the inning, one up, one down. And here's Gilliam Jr. Has walked grounded outside twice. Gilliam hitting at.249, none for two tonight. Dodgers seven, Cubs two. Last of the sixth inning. Grosman delivers, Gilliam swings and hits one in the hole to left field for a base hit. Junior slicing one through there between the George Scott Littell and third baseman Ernie Banks. So he's on with a single hit. Number seven for the Dodgers. And oncoming will be Duke Snyder. And as soon as we see what happens to Snyder, we'll run in the station break for you. One on, one out. Snyder has walked to the home run and struck out. Duke hitting at.248 one for two tonight. He's picked up three points this evening with a home run scored. Two runs, one on, one out. Brosnan the big right hander. Second Chicago pitcher of the night. Here's the pitch. Fastball for strike at the knees to Snyder. Nothing in one. Gino Samoli on deck and Gil Hodges down in the hole. Strike one. Count Duke waiting. Gilliam off first. Here's the pitch. Foul ball ripped straight back. And it's strike two to Duke. 02. Nothing in two. Count to four, Schneider. Gilliam off, first, one out. Brosnan out of a stretch, delivers to Duke. Curve in the dirt. Bounces by Neiman. Down to second, goes Gilliam. Makes a big turn there and now goes to third. The throw. The Banks is in time. Gilliam out, trying to go to third on a wild pitch. The ball came back to the backstop and Neiman had a little trouble grabbing it. Finally picked it up and fired the Banks for the out. So if you're scoring, it'll Gabe Gilliam the second on the wild pitch and out. Going to third, two to five. Count the center ball. One and two strikes. Gilliam out. Jim hesitated just a moment before deciding to go on. And that split second cost him out of third. Has even made a perfect peg down the bank. So, two outs now. No base runner. Snider waiting. Ball one. Strike two. The wind up and the onew pitch. Curve outside for ball. On the count. Two. Two now on sn. Two and two to Duke. Dodgers seven, Cubs two. Last of the six. The wind up and pitch. Fastball high outside.

[Jerry Doggett]

Ball free.

[Vince Gulley]

Tomorrow night at Jersey City, it'll be Don Drysdale for the Dodgers against Don Kaiser for the Cub. Don Newcomb due to pitch back at Ebbets Field on Thursday against Chicago. Carl Magley was due to start tonight, but they jammed the thumb in the outfield two days ago at Philadelphia. There's a belt to right Powell. Wow. Snyder hit that one over the roof.

[Vince Gulley]

The trail, taking a curveball at the knees. One ball, two strikes, two outs. And on Dodgers seven, Cubs two. Top of the seventh, Here's the pitch. A bouncer hit the floor. Third. Neil backs up near the line. Long throw is in time for the out to retire the side. So it's three up and three down for Chicago in the seventh. No runs, no hits, no errors and none left on. So at the end of six and a half innings of play, the score, the Dodgers seven, the Cubs two. Well, Al, everybody's standing up for the seven inning stretch. What do you got to say? All right, got this to say. It's been quite while a the game. Now here comes the seven bening stretch. Wonder what that Dodger fan down there is thinking about. Jer, let's steal a listen, huh? That time again, the seventh inning. Oh, it's a nice time to ball game, stand and stretch and kind of look around. The ballpark. A few things you haven't noticed during the first part of the game. Sure, tell the home fans from the first visitors spot. The lucky fans too. No wonder they call it the lucky seventh. Lot of lucky smokers.

[Jerry Doggett]

Can't think of a better light up time.

[Vince Gulley]

Boy, that tastes good.

[Jerry Doggett]

Light up a Lucky yourself.

[Vince Gulley]

You know they say, they said Lucky's taste better. Tell you what you'll say. You'll say it's the best tasting cigarette you ever smoked. Well, have the Gladys Goodings supplied us with a little hand clapping music. Let's take a look up the scoreboard and see how things stand for Brooklyn. Seven runs, seven hits, no errors. And for Chicago, two runs, one hit. They have committed one error. We go to of the last of the seventh inning. It's Hodges coming up to the plate now and stepping right back up. A lucky strike. Jerry Dock. Okay, Al. Hodges had a real good night so far. Walk, doubled and hit a home run. Gill's average has moved from.344 to.352. And he's been on base six times in a row. Two doubles, two home runs and two walks. Takes a curve on the inside corner for strike at the end of eight. Philadelphia three, Cincinnati one. And at the end of seven, the Giants six, Milwaukee five. Oh, one count. Here's the pitch by Brosnan. Curve low and it's ball one one ball one strike to Hodges. Jim Brosman checks the sign. Here's the one one offering. Outside. Ball two. Two and one. Roger Craig and Don Besson now in the bullpen for the Dodgers, just in case Koufax has struck out 11. And the Cubs will have two more turns at bat. The 21 pitch to Gill. A half swing and. And Gill couldn't check it in time. Strike two. Two two ball in the strike zone anyway, so it's a two two count to Hodges. Boy, this National League race is really something in it a real dog fight. Hard to swing the ground ball to the left side. Shortstop Lael over up with it. Play to first in time. And it's one gone. So they finally stop Hodges after getting on six times. Gil Grounds out. Joe Pigno coming on now batting 1,000, if you please. One for one. One out, none. On seventh innings, Brosnan looks for a sign, winds and fires to Joe. Half swing, checked up and it's ball one. One ball, no strikes to Pig Natano. Charlie Neil on deck and Don Zimmer to follow. Last of the seventh inning. Dodgers 7, the Cubs 2. Dawson ready. The 10 pitch to Joe. Curve high for ball two, in case you've joined late, Campy got plunked in the chest by pitch. Ball in the third, and with a score, six nothing. Pignettano got the catching assignment. Especially since Rube Walker has a couple of stitches in his right hand. So actually, Joe, the only able body catcher, gets a big league look. And it looked very good. Takes a strike and it's 2:1. But Joe's been riding that bench, just saying, wait till I get in there. Wait till I get in there. And here he is, and first catching role in the major leagues. Been in one ball game previous as a pitch runner. A two one pitch to Joe. Strike two. He takes a fastball and it's two two one out none on. Dodgers batting in the seventh, leading seven to two. One hit allowed by Sandy Koufax. Dodgers have picked up. 22 pitch on the way. Swing and a miss down on strikes goes Pignetano. Strikeout number three for Jim Brosnan. That's 18 strikeouts in the game. And here's Charlie Neal. A struck out single to drive in a pair and walk one for two tonight. Neal hitting.274. Dawson takes a lot of time between pitches now. Neil waits. Here's the pitch. Ground ball to the right side. Morgan scoots over on the outfield grass. Makes his play just in time to get the flying heel by Nilei. Close play at first side. Retire. The Dodgers go out in order. No runs, no hits, no errors. And they left none. The end of seven innings of play. The score, the Dodgers, seven, Chicago Cubs, two. Okay, Al, what you say? Well, I say this. There are two terrific Sunday doubleheaders coming your way, folks. Matter of fact, some pretty tremendous baseball right down the line for the next two weeks. Next Sunday, a doubleheader. The Dodgers and the Cincinnati Reds. Well, need we say more about that one? And the following Sunday, June 16th, that's Father's Day. The Dodgers will be playing the St. Louis Cardinals. And as a special note to the youngsters, if you'd like to treat your dad to a ball game and fit in our special TV Father's Day section, order your two dollar reserve seats by mail. Ascend to Father's Day. Brooklyn Dodgers, Bucks 55. Brooklyn, 1, New York. Each seat, $2. In our special Old TV Father's Day section. Sure hope that you're gonna make arrangements to bring your daddy out Father's Day. Show the old man you appreciate him a little bit. Is that right, Jerry? That's a good idea. Yeah. Yeah. Get Pop and come on out here. Yes, sir. I don't imagine those kids that came about to come with the ball game, would they? Oh, no. They'll be really getting on, dad. Well, it's a real way for father and the boy to get the together. What better way than right here at the ball game? How about a father and a daughter getting ball? That's just as good, Al. Absolutely. After all, you got a cute daughter and I'm very proud of her. And she's going to bring me out here on Father's Day. How about yours? I'll bring you out here Father's Day. Okay. Father Jerry Kendall will bat for Brosnan, who goes out for a batter now after going five innings, one run, free hit, struck out three and walked two. And. And we have two right handers going in the Chicago bullpen now. We'll check them up for you. Jerry Kendall, an infielder, pitch hitting against Koufax, takes a curve for strike one. Sandy, with 11 strikeouts. The last time he pitched against the Cubs, he struck out 13. Well, he has six more outs at least. Here's a strike on the corner. Nothing in two. And he threw the change up that time and got it over. Turk Loun joins Tom Paholski in the bullpen. Loud and Paholski, fastball inside, ball one, one and two. Jerry Kendall pinch hitting for Jim Brosnan tomorrow night. Same clubs over at Jersey City, at Roosevelt Stadium and back to Ebbets Field on Thursday. Fastball, pop foul, back upstairs. And it's still one and two. Well, it's all over at Philadelphia. The Phillies Red Hot 3, Cincinnati 1. So the Dodgers can pick up a little ground on Cincinnati if they can win this one. The giants lead Milwaukee 6 to 5 through 7. A swing and a miss. And there he goes. Kendall out on a slow curve. Strike three and number 12 for Koufax. Bobby Morgan coming on now with one out. 12 strikeouts for Koufax, whose previous high this year is 13. Whose major league high is 14. Struck out 14 in his second major league game. Here's the pitch. Strike. With a curve at the knees on the inside corner. Nothing in one to Bob Morgan. Koufax started this inning with 58 strikeouts in 49 innings. Here's a liner hit in the hole to right field for a base hit. And Morgan is on. Samoli fires it back in. That is hip number two for the Cubs off Koufax. Bob Speak, coming on, has walked, slide to right and hit a home run. So Koufax, rolling along here with a two hitter, now has 59 strikeouts to lead the National League There goes the runner as Koufax winds and there's no play made. Sandy kind of kicks in the dirt with his hand, realizing he kind of pulled a boo boo there. Going into a wind up with a runner on. And Morgan just romps on down to second. See if they give him a steal on that. Ball. One count to speak.

Now Koufax takes his stretch. Here's the pitch. Inside out of Pignotono's glove, but no advance by Morgan. Ball two on Bob's feet. Speak. A left hand batter has not felt the strikeout sting of Koufax yet. In fact, he belted a home run last time up the two. Zero pitch high and away ball free. Speak hitting at.250 and Koufax goes behind him on the count. Three nothing. One. On its second one out here in the eighth inning, pinch bass Jerry Kendall struck out number 12 for Koufax, number 19 in the game. And that record of course is 23. That's the national League record.

[Jerry Doggett]

Yes,

[Vince Gulley]

here's a strike in at the letter zone. Speak. And it's 3 and 1. That 23 mark was tied the last time Koufax pitched against the Cubs when he got 13. Cup pitchers got 10, Drowski eight and Lon had two. 3 and 1. Koufax takes off a sign and Speaks steps out on at second. Bobby Morgan, Don Besson, Roger Craig behind Koufax and the Dodger bullpen. Sandy shakes it off again and now we're going to have a conference. Koufax and Pignetano checking signs and they might Have a switch set on with a runner on at second base. And Sandy wants to make sure he doesn't cross him. Up. Three and one. Bob Speak waiting left hand batter. Koufax peers down to get it now. Okay, check out of a stretch, delivers curve high over his head. And Speak is on with a walk. That's the fifth walk given up by Koufax. And Speak has gone two of them. Ernie Banks comes on now, has struck out twice and flied to center. So banks nothing for three, hitting.226. Two on for the Cubs in the eighth inning. One out, Dodger infield, double play depth. Dodgers lead 7 to 2, top of the 8. Koufax out of a stretch, delivers long fly ball. And there it goes, deep to left field. This one is going going. Home run for Ernie Banks. Well, before you know it, the Cubs are right back in the ball game now as Ernie Banks at the three run homer at seven to five. Dodgers lead as Banks belted one back in the lower stands in left field for his sixth home run of the year and for another thousand Luckies to the VA Hospital at Montrose, New York. And here comes Walt Austin out to have a talk with Koufax. The Cubs have picked up three hits in the game. Two have been home runs and they have accounted for the five Chicago tallies. Hodges and Koufax at the mound now waiting for Austin to come on as Ernie Banks Hill into the stands and it's seven to five, Brooklyn. Clem Levine now replaces Roger Craig in the Dodger bullpen and is throwing along with Don Besson and the conference of the marina. And Austin wants to find out about it. Sandy Koufax started the inning. There's no apparent sign of what was to come. Struck out pinch batter Kendall. And he's going to stay in. Austin coming on off after Kendall struck out. Morgan stroked a single to right field, stole second as Koufax went into a wind up. Speak then drew a walk and Banks powdered one for a home run. Here's Lee Walls up now. He has popped out, walked and grounded out. He's done for two. Speak and Walls the only Cubs who have not gone down on strike. Here's the pitch. A liner hit right to Zimmer for the out. Lion drive to Don and it's to away. Little Don just kind of plotted down and made the catch. So toe away now as Frank Reaga comes on. He is struck out three times. 75. Dodgers lead, top of the eight. Cub fatting, two outs, none on Lucky Strike. Sending it to you from Ev Field. Here's a looper in the right center field for a base hit. This one's going to be in for extra bases going to the wall. Anaga Round first digs to second. Now Schneider plays the ball in the corner, Bodega turns and stops at second base. A double to right center field. And the Cubs now send a bail along with a tying run. How about that? Dodgers had a big lead of seven nothing and the Cubs now have come romping back to get in the ball game. And Koufax has been pitching brilliantly, but the home run ball has gotten him in trouble. That's just the fourth hit for sure. Chicago two home runs, a single and a double. And here comes Austin again. And that may be all for Koufax, even though day along the left hand batter is due up next. We'll wait and see. Olson coming back to the mound to have a talk for Chicago. Two right handers, Turk Loun and Tom Paholski working. Austin now talking with Pignettano as they both walk to the mound. The Koufax Renegade Beldiva double to right center. Sandy, after achieving his 12th strikeout to start this inning, has been hammered around here rather thoroughly by the Cubs. A line single to right, a walk, a long home run to left, a line out to shortstop and a double to right center field. And he's going to leave the ball game and Clem Levine will come off. So Koufax after a rather brilliant performance tonight, balls off in the eighth inning and the Cubs find the range on him and pick up three runs and bring the tying run to bat with two outs, one on day A long due up to face the oncoming Clem Levine in the bullpen for the Dodgers. Well, while Clem makes the long walk in here and gets his warm up tosses down to Joe Pignett tunnel. Let's turn over to Al now and get a run down on the lucky strike scoreboard. Al. All right, Jerry. Checking up on that Milwaukee New York ball game. It's quite a tussle. At the end of eight innings it's all tied at 6 and 6, 6 and 6 between Milwaukee and the Giants at the end of eight. Round of applause for Sandy Koufax as he leaves the M. And then the bind comes on. Commonal Tonight defeated Cincinnati 3 to 1, St. Louis and Pittsburgh. At the end of six innings it's St. Louis 4, Pittsburgh 3, the Yankees in Cleveland in the American League. At the end of seven innings it is the Yankees six and Cleveland has four. Boston and Chicago at the end of Five and a half innings, no score. Boston, Chicago scoreless. End of five and a half. Washington and Detroit at the end of two and a half half innings. Washington leading Detroit two to one. Baltimore and Kansas City at the end of half an inning. Baltimore nothing. Kansas City now coming to back. Well, that's everything off the Lucky Strike scoreboard. I think Jerry has LeBron's record all checked up for us as Clem takes them on. He'll be pitching to Dale Long here in the eighth inning in which the Chicago Cubs, as Jerry told you the game back in the ball game have scored three times and ErnaG has doubled with two outs, placed him at second base. And Day Long is always trouble. So Jerry, how about it? Okay, Long is struck out, fouled out. And Levine now comes in for the 20th time this year. Clem's record is three and oh, he has saved six now trying to save this one for Koufax. Here's the stretch, the look in the pitch curve high enough.

[Jerry Doggett]

Side ball one.

[Vince Gulley]

Roger Craig now working alone on the bullpen for the Dodgers. Levine has worked 411 2/3 innings and has allowed just eight earned runs. Winning three, losing none. Struck out 25 and walked nine. One oh, count the left hand batter day along. Two outs, one on the pitch curve for a strike and it's one and one. Koufax worked 7 1/3 innings, allowed five runs, just four hits, struck out 12 and walked five. Sandy with a fine performance, weakened a bit in the eighth and the Cubs got three runs on Ernie Bank. Homer with two aboard. The double by Ornega then brought Austin out for the second time and Lebine into pitch. The one one pitched along, ground ball down the first baseline. Hodges makes a one hand grab on the line and the stride is retired as Hodges carried the ball to the bag for the out in time on long. So that's all in the eighth inning, Levine comes in and makes three pitches and gets the side out for Chicago. Three runs on three hits, no errors and they left one. So at the end of the top of the eighth inning, the score, the Dodgers seven, Chicago five. Al. Well fans, would you like to take a guess at the time here in Brooklyn? Let's see how close you can get. Well, if you said it's about 10:30, then you'd be about right. And if you went a little further and said it was also light up time, well then you're thinking the same as I am. That's it. Time to touch a match to a lucky strike. Time to settle back to the Real deep down smoking enjoyment of this truly genuine cigarette. And believe me, a Lucky is just that genuine. Because it's all cigarettes, all fine tobacco, mild, naturally good tasting tobacco that toasted to taste even better, cleaner, fresher, smoother. Try that for Lucky. You'll say it's the best tasting cigarette you ever smoked. To the last half of the eighth inning on this lucky strike broadcast. Don Zimmer will be the first man up for the Brooklyn Dodgers. Then LE is due and then amorous. And after the fire to him is a right hander named Tom Paholski. And Jerry's got his record all checked up for us. Jerry. Okay, Al. Tom has won none, lost two. This is his 10th appearance, he started five. And he's warming up now with catcher Cal Nieman as Don Zimmer stands by waiting to start it off here. The last of the eighth inning. Dodger seven, Cubs five. Last of the eighth. And the Cubs used the home run ball to get right back in the contest.

a two run homer by Bob Speak in the sixth inning and the free run homer by Ernie Banks in the eighth. We've had four home runs. The Dodgers have hit a pair, Snyder and Hodges. And for the Cubs, Speak and banks. We've had one double play. So we add up 5,000 Luckies to the VA Hospital at Montrose, New York tonight for a total of 31 out of a quarter of 34,000. Oh, we're still going along. Don Zimmer steps in. Now little Don has struck out, hit the double play and flat out, so he's nothing for three. And hitting.225. Tom Paholski, Big right hander, formerly with the Cardinals, Dodger 7. Comes five boxes of the eight. Here's the pitch to Don. Fastball is looped out past the mound Morgan comes in from second, makes his play in time for the out. One away. Then we had that ball jammed right on his fist and hit on the handle of the bat out towards second base. A little squibber picked up there by Morgan for the play. One out. Here comes Levine. Cl as a batter, has been up there 10 times, has one base hit. And the guys still talk about that one as Tim belted onto the left center field wall and got a single out of it. Levine coming on with one out. And then on eighth inning, Amorous on deck and Gilliam to follow. The Dodgers got three in the first, three in the third and one in the fifth. Chicago got two in the sixth and three in the 80s. And as of this moment, the starting pitchers, Dick dropped for Chicago and Koufax for Brooklyn, are the pitchers of decision. Here's the pitch by paholski. Curveball bounced one hop to Banks at third. His play is in time easily to get Lebine two up and two down here in the eighth. And the Emeralds coming on as none further. Number three is hitting.300 and two. Here's the pitch to Sandy on the Corner for strike 1. 4 and 1 on Amazon. Amaros9300. Out for the ball game tonight here at Ebbets Field. Dodges back home, opening up a 15 day stand. Pitch to Amros. Inside corner for strike two.

[Jerry Doggett]

Nothing.

[Vince Gulley]

Two to Paholski. Pitching to Amorose. Going to the right hander, Winds and fires. Curveball in the dirt. Ball one. That's the first bad one he's dished up there this inning. One and two to Amros. Lucky strike. Happy to send it to you tonight from Evansfield, Brooklyn, the Dodgers and the Chicago Cubs. Dodgers 7, Cubs 5. Curveball swung on and missed.

[Jerry Doggett]

Strike three.

[Vince Gulley]

And Amoros now runs down the line as the ball was dropped by Neiman. Neiman chased him several steps, gave up and then lobbed the ball to long from foot out. So that's strikeout number one for Paholski and for Cub. Pitching eight. Dodger pitching 12 side retired in order in the eighth inning. No runs, no hits, no errors. And then left on. And so at the end of eight innings to play the score, the Dodger seven, the Cubs five. And now here's Al. Well, say, fans, you ever hear the expression good bulbs? Translated, that's baseball talk for a player with sharp eyes and a good sense of the strike zone. A guy who takes the bad ones and gets lots of wood on the good ones. Now try this one. Real smoking enjoyment. If you want to know what that means just you light up a Lucky. Why a Lucky? Oh, that's easy, too. A Lucky is a genuine cigarette. All cigarette, all fine tobacco that's toasted to taste even better. Cleaner, fresher, smoother. Yes, sir. Smoking a Lucky is a genuine pleasure. A pleasure you can help yourself to right now. Enjoy the best tasting cigarette you ever smoked. Well, Jerry, the last call for the Chicago Cubs. Top of the ninth, okay. Le Byrne out to try to hold him back. Goes through the bottom third of the order. With Cal Neiman the catcher, Jack Luttrell the shortstop and then the pitcher spot due up, we'll see what's going to happen. Neiman out. He has gone down on strikes twice and flat out once. Sandy Koufax started and breezed along till he got in trouble in the eighth inning. He'd allowed one hit and two runs until that time. And then in the eighth, the Cubs tagged him for three runs. The big blow home and Bernie Banks with two arms. Neiman, wait. Ninth inning. Lebine delivers, the fastball, is blown outside. Ball one, Dodger seven, Cubs five, Brooklyn out. Trying to close them out here in the ninth thing. And open, open the home stand on a happy note and also gain ground on the red legs. A swing and a miss on a fastball. Strike one. One on one count. For Chicago. Turk Lounge continues to throw on the bullpen. 12 strikeouts for Koufax and eight by Chicago pitchers for a total of 20 tonight. The 11 pitch. Curveball is outside. 1 and 1, a 2 and 1 1. Casey Wise throwing a few in the bullpen also to get an arm loose in case the ball gets prolonged. He might get into action. Two one count. Here's the pitch. Fastball is just a little bit low. Ball 3. 3 and 1 now on catcher, County Neiman. Dodger bullpen quiet. Levine out, trying to make his seventh save of the year. This is his 20th appearance. 31 pitch. Fly ball to center field. Snyder moves intercept, comes over to his left to his recept, pounds the glove and makes the grab for the out. Demons guys, to Snyder straight away in center. And before Jack Luttrell comes on, we're pause for station identification. This is the Brooklyn Dodgers radio network, dial 1460 WOKO for the Brooklyn Dodgers games. And right to Woko for the complete Dodger schedule of games at home and away. Yours free for the asking. Be sure to give your name and address. Ride baseball Woko. Albany, New York, Will not bat. Outfielder Tim Bolger will bat for him. And that's why Wise is warming up in the bullpen. Here's the pitch. Now. Bulger takes the strike going one. Chicago Cub utility outfielder Jim Bolger batting with one out of the ninth and Labine trying to slam the door in their face. Here's the pitch. Curve low, outside, ball one, one and one to Bulger. Pachowski is due up up next, but Walt Warren is out in the on deck circle swinging a couple of bats. One, one count. The B winds and fires. Curveball, nub foul. Off to the right to the dodger bat rack. Captain P.E. reese comes out of the dugout to make play on that one. He was still out with that full side muscle. 1 ball, 2 strikes on cincheter Jim Bolger. Brown has stopped throwing in the bullpen for Chicago. Now. He's been down there for several weeks, so perhaps he's had enough. Umpire Tom Gorman rubs up a new one for Lebine. Lobs it out to him. Dodger seven, Cubs five. We're in the the ninth inning, one out, none on. Milwaukee now has scored in the ninth and lead the Giants 7 6. Top of the ninth. Philly beats Cincinnati 3 1. Here's the 12 pitch. Curveball. A fly ball to right field. Simole coming fast forward. Can't get it at the base set. Bowles are on dunking one the right near the line. A base hit for the Chicago Cubs. That is tip number five for Chicago. The first off Lebine. And it brings on Walt Warren. Another French cutter. Warren is more in the swings. That bat with a lot of authority has good power. He's a left hand batter. So again the Cubs now send the tying wind of the plate. And Pig the goes out to talk to Levine. And it might be that Joe Rather, new in this National League catching business, is going to ask Climb how he wants to pitch to him. So Paholski is out after working one inning and he got the stride out in order. And Morin. Now Walt Morin coming on the bat. Seems like the last last time the Cubs were here. Morin belted a home run off Lebine to get a tie up. Ball game. Grand slammer that time. Here's a curveball for strike one that tied the ball game up. We played about 16. No, played a few, I think. Four and one. Lebine delivers fastball on the corner for strike two. Tomorrow. 10. I've only missed it to six, Allen. Strike two counts. Walt Morin, pinch hitting for pitcher Tom Bracholski. One out, one on ninth inning. Cubs batting, Dodgers lead seven to five. Levine delivers curve low for a ball one and two on Deck is Bobby Morgan, Chicago second baseman. Pinch batter Jim Bolger on first single to right field with one out. Cubs have five hit, Dodgers have seven. Curveball bounce foul off the first base side. Hits the box seat reading and rolls out toward the foul line. And the first base umpire howled it.

Throws it out. One ball, two strikes on pinch batter Walt Morin. Don Buffett now back to the firing line in the bullpen for the Dodgers. One and two. Here's the pitch. Curveball looped into left field along the line. Peeling off foul, out of play. More in swinging late. Sliced her foul down the left field line. 1 and 2. Dodger infield a bit to the right and double play depth. Neil way wide of third. Zimmer halfway up and over a bit toward second. Gilliam back about normal depth on the right side. And Hodges moving in and out behind the runner at first. One and two. Here's the pitch. Up high for ball two. Two now on Walt Morin. Pinch hitter here in the ninth inning. Dodger 7, Chicago Cub 5. First game of the series. Tomorrow night they'll be at Jersey City. Thursday night, right back here at Ebbit Field. And over the weekend, it'll be Cincinnati single games on Friday night and Saturday afternoon. Double header Sunday. Here's the pitch. Fastball high stride, ball free. And now LeBron has worked the count. Out full in the spot. Three two on the hitter. Walkmore with one out. One on and the Dodger lead two runs. So now. Now we'll see how Chicago's going to Play it. Bolger at first, runs good, has good speed, and we'll see if they're going to let him go. With the Cubs two runs behind, they might play it safe. 3 2. Levine checks Bolger holding and the pitch is flung on a liner to center. Snyder coming on fast, can't play it. Base hit. And Bolger goes in and holds at second base. Comes to zoom at the cutoff spot. And the Cubs have the tying runs on now with Bobby Morgan coming on. Two finch shooters in a row for Bob Stepping. Deliver. And the Cubs have two on with one out and Bobby Morgan coming on. Struck out flat out, walked and single scored twice. And it looks like we're going to have a runner now Morin. And it'll probably be Wise. An infielder was running in the bull, throwing in the bullpen and was. And we'll see Casey Wise coming on to run. And here's a change for the Dodgers now. Carl Forillo is going to right field, Gino Samoli will go to left field and out will come Sandy Amaro. So for the defense, Austin makes the change and sends further the right here in the ninth into left field, goes to Molly. And a runner at first base for Morin is Casey Wise. All kinds of changes going on in this ball game. Far from being over as the Cubs now have roared back from a seven nothing deficit to a spot where it's seven five and they have the tying runs on with one out of the ninth and Lebine trying to get them out. KGY's pinch runner for Morin to single defender on the three two pick. While all this is going on, let's light up a lucky lean back and see what happens. Things getting a bit hectic here at Ebbets Field tonight. Levine now ready to work on Morgan who's one for three. Here's the pitch. Foul ball at the plate. Strike one. Koufax for five innings at thrown an hitter at the Cubs. Then in the sixth he walked Morgan and then Speak hit a home run. The first hit and two runs. Then the eighth after he struck out the first man. Morgan single. Speak walked and Banks hit a home run to make it 7 5. Then after walls lined out, Ornega doubled and that brought on Levine. Clem got the third out, then day along and now got the first out of the ninth. But back to back singles to put the Cubs right back in business. The old on pitch, inside for ball and the count is one and one. One ball, one strike, ninth inning, Dodgers seven and the Cubs five seven Hits for Brooklyn and six for Chicago. Here's the look in the pitch. Swing and a miss. Strike two. One and two. The B working on Morgan with Bob Speak on deck. The Dodger infield of a play. Depth. The Giants tied it up in the ninth inning. Boy, what a ball game that one is. 77 runs have been. Mostly one at a time. Here's the pitch. A pop fly at second base. Gilliam comes in. Infield fly rule is on. And Gilliam makes the play. Morgan is out. He broke his bat, Gillan right off the fist. So there are two outs now and Bob Speak coming on as the last hope for Chicago. But he's had a pretty good night. He walked flat out, hit a home run and walked, scored twice. Speak hitting.251 for two tonight. If the Dodgers can hang on and win, they'll move to within two games of the top. The Phillies now have moved to within one of the top. One and a half. Is it one and a half? All right. Left hand batter, Bob Speak facing Clem Levine with two out, two on in the ninth inning. Here's the pitch. Curve strike. Nothing in.

man's kind of holding their breath here at Ebb Field. And for you, well, light up a lucky MSC on one on Bob Speak, left hand batter hitting in the number two spot for Chicago. Here's the check and here's the pitch. Bob all bounced off to the left of the plate. Strike. So Lebine is now one strike away from recording his seventh save of the year to give Koufax his fourth win. But that's a mighty big pitch. Well, let's just wait and see. Strike two. As Speak steps out now the Cubs have Bolger at second and Wise at first. Dodgers with a two run lead here in the ninth inning. Outfield around to the right infield. Also waiting as Lein Comeset delivers outside with a fastball. 1 and 2. Clem tried to make him chase a bad one, but Speak wouldn't go for it. One and two to Bob Speak, The B ready again the one two. Look, here's the pitch. Curve outside ball to just miss the outside corner. Clem trying to bend one over that corner. Trying to keep the ball away from Speak. Keep him from pulling toward that short right field wall. Dodgers 7, Cubs 5. Two out, two on ninth innings and a 2. Two count on the batter Bob Speak. Levine ready, checks the runners out of a stretch, delivers. Got him swinging. Down he goes. Strike three on a curveball into the hand. Speaketh out. The Dodgers win for Levine.

[Jerry Doggett]
