Jerry Doggett
Good afternoon everybody.
- [00:35]
Vin Scully
This has been Scully speaking to you from Crosley Field in Cincinnati with Jerry Doggett and Al Helper on hand as the Brooklyn Dodgers and Cincinnati Red Legs about ready to wrap up their three game series this afternoon. Today's game, like all the Dodger games this year, will be brought to you by Lucky Stripe, the best tasting cigarette you ever smoked. It's made by the American Tobacco Company and tobacco is our middle name. And the F M Shaffer Brewing Co. Of Brooklyn, brewers of Shaffer Beer, America's oldest lager beer. The Dodgers and Red Legs playing a single game today to wrap up their three game series. This will be meeting number 17. They've split it down the middle, each side having won eight of the preceding 16 and each side having won four of eight played here and four of the eight played back east. So they're about as even as you can be in today's ball game. It will be Johnny Padres for Brooklyn and Brooks Lawrence for Cincinnati. Lawrence, making his 20th start, has completed eight and appeared 12 times in relief. His record, 11 wins and six defeats. He is 2 and O against Brooklyn and lifetime six wins and five defeats. He appeared, you might remember briefly pitching the ninth inning of Friday night's game in relief. Johnny Padres for Brooklyn, making his 16th start, has completed seven ball games and appeared three times in relief. John Eight wins and three defeats. He is 2 and 1 against Cincinnati at lifetime 8 and 4. Johnny has had an exceptional success this year on the road. He lost his first road game to the Pittsburgh Pirates and since then has pitched five complete road game victories, allowing only one run in his last 45 innings on the road. He pitched shut out to the Polar Grounds, then won here 6 to 1 at Cincinnati when Ed Bailey hit a home run in the second inning of that game. And he then followed with three consecutive road shutouts at Pittsburgh, Philadelphia. And you remember that terrific ball game the other night when he bested St. Louis one to nothing. So Padres, as he warms up right now has a string of 34 consecutive scoreless innings on the road since allowing that home run by Bailey on May 21. Johnny, by the way, leads the majors in shutouts with five. Jim Wilson had four, came very close to number five, but Billy Pierce had to help him out. The Dodger lineup today. Charlie Neal opens up at short and Jim Gilliam at second base. Duke Snider batting third and center field. The field has dried out considerably since yesterday, so there is no danger now of loose topsoil giving way and Snyder's tricky knee being re injured. So he's back in the lineup, hitting third. Gil Hodges not feeling too well, but nevertheless the big fellow is going to stay at first base. He had a tooth removed and since that time, a little reaction to it. His hand bothers him a little bit and his legs are a little tired, but as Gill said with a kind of a sheepish grin, he'd be there at first. So Hodges in the cleanup spot at first base. The Red Legs take the field right now before a big crowd. We should have another crowd, close to 30,000 today. Sandy Amorous will be in left field, batting fifth. Carl Brillo, who had a single and a home run yesterday, will be in right field. Roy Campanala, the catcher, batting seventh. Peewee Reese will be at third base. Randy Jackson, it's conceivable, could have played today. However, he twisted his knee slightly yesterday and they're always afraid that he might seriously injure it, so they'll give him a day off. However, he could appear as a pinch hitter, so Reese instead will be at third base, batting eighth and the pitcher, Johnny Padres for Cincinnati. Johnny Temple opens up at second base and Gus Bell in center field. Don Holk will hit third and play third base. George Crow in the cleanup spot at first. We'll continue with the Red Leg lineup in a few moments, but right now, our national anthem. To continue with the Cincinnati lineup. George Crow in the cleanup spot in first and Frank Robinson in left field. Ed Bailey the catcher, Wally Post is dropped to the seventh spot in right field, Roy McMillan, the shortstop and the pitcher, Brook Lawrence. Eleven wins and six defeats, two and oh against Brooklyn at lifetime six and five. The four umpires for this series as they rotate today, it'll be Stan Landis back of the plate, Bill Baker on the line at first, Frank Dascoli umpiring at second and Frank Sicore on the line back at third. A big day of baseball today. The Giants and the Milwaukee Braves are playing a doubleheader in the first game. It'll be Johnny Antonelli 9 and 10 against Bob Trillbridge, 3 and 2, Pittsburgh and St. Louis. Vernon Law and Vaughn McDaniel. And the Cardinals lead one to nothing at the end of an inning and a half. Philadelphia and Chicago. Curt Simmons and Tom Puholski. No score at the end of two innings. All those games, double headers in the American League. Tigers and Yankees playing two FOI tack against Larson. It's a 11 tie at the end of an inning and a half. No score at the end of an inning and a half. Chicago and Baltimore. Harshman and Odell. The Red Sox lead 1 Nothing at the end of an inning and a half on Ted Williams home run. And it's three to two. Kansas City over Washington at the end of six and a half innings in the first of two. So you're right up to date. Charlie Neal's coming up. Lucky Strike blowing smoke rings to you from Crosley Field in Cincinnati. And for lucky Strike and a play by play, here's Jerry Doggett.
- [07:24]
Jerry Doggett
Thanks, Ben. And hi everyone. Charlie Neal stepping in. And our ball Gimmabut gets set. Underway. It'll be Neal with a.263 batting average, seven home runs and 30 runs batted in. Brooks Lawrence, the big right hander, checks his shine. The wind up in the first pitch of the game. Swung on. A fly ball at the left field. Robinson moves over to his left hand, hauls it down for the out. O' Neal first ball. Hitting lines off to Frank Robinson in left field. One up, one down. And the batter, Junior Gilliam junior Had a long drive spell before he got the base hit. Yester batting average is.251. Home run, 23 runs batted in. Brooks Lawrence, 11 and 6 against the league. And 2 and 0 this year against the Dodgers. Lifetime 6 5. Here's the pitch. Fastball is in for a strike. And Gilliam now steps out, complaining a bit to umpire Stan Landis. And Landis takes his mask off and is talking to Gilliam. So Junior rubs a handful of dirt in his hand, still talking to Landis. Didn't like the call on that pitch. Beyond that, kidder Duke Snyder. And down in the hole, Gil Hodges. Third baseman Don Holt playing in on the grass. Lawrence Wines. And here's the pitch.
- [08:43]
Vin Scully
Strike two.
- [08:44]
Jerry Doggett
Curveball at the knees. And it's nothing. In two to Gilliam. Bright sunshiny day here in Cincinnati. Temperature in the 80s. Possibly will go as high as 90 degrees today. And a fine crowd. Gilliam leans back from a high curve. And it's ball one Strike two. Fans still coming in the sun deck. The bleacher area in right field is jam packed, folks still trying to find seats out there. Gilliam swings a fly ball loose into short right field. Coming on as post. He's there and he makes the grab for the out throw away. So Gilliam skies to post in short right field. Two up and two down. And the batter will be Duke Snyder. Duke hitting.279 with 24 home runs and 57 runs batted in. Snyder, of course, did not play yesterday because of the soft ground in the outfield and the tricky knees. But Duke back in there today after the sunshine yesterday and today dried out
- [09:48]
Vin Scully
the playing field very well.
- [09:51]
Jerry Doggett
Lawrence entered the lineup. Here's his pitch. High flyback Robinson now backing up to the edge of the curve. Goes up halfway, waits and makes the catch to the out to retire the side so the Dodgers out on three fly balls, two to left, one to right, and the side retired in order. No runs, no hits, no errors, and none left on. And at the end of a half inning of play, it's Brooklyn nothing. And the Red Legs coming to bat. Now with a word for lucky strike, here's Baron.
- [10:19]
Vin Scully
Well, middle of the first, friends, and that means a short pause before the Red Leg come up to bat. Means we have time too, to wax eloquence about Luckies. And that's an easy assignment, let me assure you. But friends, there's no smoke like a Lucky. A Lucky's all cigarette, all fine tobacco. Tobacco that starts off right by being mild and naturally good tasting tobacco that's toasted to taste even better, cleaner, fresher, smoother. So get in the mood, friends, enjoy yourself. Light up a Lucky and discover the best tasting cigarette you ever smoked for the taste that you like. Light up a Lucky Strike, you'll say

a Lucky's the best tasting cigarette you ever smoked.

Vin Scully
Well, the Dodgers have certainly erupted a little bit in the dugout perhaps. No doubt after Gillian on a strike of the plate, Jake Fiddler hollered and now Walter Austin out in defense of his first base coach, has been given the boot by plate umpire Stan Landers. And we haven't even gotten to the last of the first inning. A towel comes sailing out of the Dodger dugout. But Austin, no doubt about it, has been chased by plate umpire Stan Landers to get back into it. Now remember, Gilliam at the plate took a strike and hollered about it. When the inning ended, the Dodgers began to holler from the dugout. Landis world towards the dugout and tried to quiet them. Austin came out in defense, I believe of Jake Pitler. And Austin apparently got so carried away in talking to Landis that he said something untoward and Stan Landis gave him the boot. And they're sitting quietly in a box seat, leaning on the railing is Walter Olson's father who right now you can imagine, sees all of this one sided. So Walter Austin thrown out of the ball game with his dad no more than than 60ft away. And Austin now stops and gives his batting card to Billy Herman. And it has been Don Newcombe who has been given the boot along with Walter Olson. So Newcomb who has a very loud voice and if Don apparently hollering from the bench was chased and Austin shot out trying to protect his pitcher and instead has been given the boot himself. So before the Dodgers take the field in the bottom of the first inning, they lose their manager and Don Newcombe. Newcomb is not scheduled to pitch until. But the Dodgers conceivably could have used them as their left handed pinch hitters. So the pressure of the pennant race has erupted. Before we can even get to the last of the first inning, the Dodgers have both manager Walter Olson and Don Newcombe kicked out of the ball game. Well, here we go again. Fasten your seat belt to the bottom of the first inning. No score. Johnny Temple coming up and here's Jerry
- [14:21]
Jerry Doggett
Johnny Podras now talking with Seawee Reese and this one about ready to go now in the last half of the first and as Vinnie told you, the rhubarb right here in the first. Stan Landis putting the thumb on new command, Walt Olson. Here's Johnny Temple at bat now hitting.286. First pitch is in for a strike. Curveball caught the inside corner to the right hand batter. Johnny Podrus with an exceptional record on the road this year. Oh, right through Reese at third base. Triple around first digs for second. Now Zamoros makes his throw there and not in time. And Temple is on a second base on a two base hit. A hard smash was right by Pee Wee Reese at third base. So Temple is on with a double down the left field line. And the batter will be Gus Bell. Johnny Temple at second base. Bell is bat with a.295 batting average, 12 home runs and 52 runs batted in. Padras now checks second, delivers the Bell. The curveball is over for a strike. Padras has a string of 34 consecutive scoreless innings on the road since allowing a home run to Bailey here at Cincinnati on May 21st. Here's the look. Padres now delivers to the plate. Swung on and missed for a strike. And the count to Gus Bell is nothing in two. No score. We're in the last half of the first inning. The Red Legs have Johnny Temple on second base and nobody out. Bell at that. Don Holstefallo and then George Crow. Series all even, one win apiece. Dodgers won yesterday 5 to 3. The Red Legs won Friday night, 6 to 5 and 11 innings. Here's the lead. Look, the 02 pitch. Fly ball hit the left field. Sandy Amros backs up a step now, moves a little bit toward the line and makes the catch for the out. So Bell skies to Amaros in left field. And up now will be don Holt. Holt getting.287, 14 home runs and 59 runs batted in.
- [16:48]
Vin Scully
One out, one on.
- [16:50]
Jerry Doggett
Temple at second base with a leadoff double for the Red Legs in the last half of the first. And running no score. Darn Holt hitting in the number three spot in the red leg batting order. Johnny Podrus now checks the runner, Delivers to the plate. Breaking ball to the knees. And it's ball one. One ball, no strikes on Hol. Rodris again ready, checks Temple off second base. The pitch is high on inside.
- [17:32]
Vin Scully
Ball two.
- [17:33]
Jerry Doggett
Holt started to lean into the pitch and then came back out of there. Did not break the riff. And it's a ball two count. Gilliam trying to keep a short holder on. Temple at second base. Keeps moving in and out. Ball two. No strikes on Don Ho Campanella flags is out of sign. Outfield. Swung a little bit to the left against the right hand batter. And now Hooks steps out and Podrus and Campanello will talk it over. Want to make sure on the signs? Perhaps. So Campy goes out to meet Johnny halfway to the mound at third. Reese Neil is at short, Gilliam at second and Hodges at first base. Amorous in left, Snyder in center and Pirulla was in right. Campanola catching and Padras doing the pitching du ball. No strike count on Don Holt. Padras out of a stretch. Here's the pitch. Changeup is bounced down the third baseline. Great backhand stop by Reese, but he has no play. And Hulk is on. And at second base, holding on, there is Johnny Temple. A hard bounding ball at the third baseline that Reese backhanded on the line, knocked down and then jumped on the ball and fell down and had no play. And it goes as a base hit for Don Ho. The red legs have two on and George Crow coming to bat. Crow hitting.301, 23 home runs and 69 runs batted in. And now the Dodger infield goes to double play depth and slides around a bit to the right side. Reese will play in a third and fairly wide of the bag. Neal shading second base and Gilliam and Hodges deep on the right side. Here's the pitch to Crow. The fastball is at the knees for a strike. The Red Legs have two on, one out, and there's no score in the last half of the first inning. Johnny Podrus looking for a sign, ready to pitch to George Crow. Johnny out of a stretch. Here's the pitch. Crow swings and taps on up the first base line.
- [19:45]
Vin Scully
Foul.
- [19:50]
Jerry Doggett
Frank McCormick makes the play on the ball in the first base coaching lines. And the count to crow is strike two. Podrus, in 111 innings so far this year, has struck out 65, has walked just 25. Ern's run average is 2.76. Lucky strike for up in a trio this afternoon from Crosley Field in Cincinnati. The Red Legs with a first inning threat going. No score, two on, one out. Padras ready. Here's the pitch. Crow swings and misses. Strike three. So George Crow is out on strike. Strikeout number one for Padres. Two away now, and the batter is Frank Robinson. Frank hitting 3 10, has 14 home runs and 44 runs batted in. Last of the first inning, two out, two on. Temple at second and Don Holket. Rodris checks the sign, eyes the runners. Here's the pitch. Ground ball bounced back to the middle. For a base set. Temple turns in the score. Here's the sold back to second base. And the Red Legs lead one to nothing. And so far, Johnny Fodder. The long string on the road is broken. He had gone 34 consecutive scoreless innings on the road. And now the Red Legs punch home a run on Frank Robinson's ground ball. Single up the middle. On the play, Don Hoek raced around the third, Temple came across the score. The batter will be the catcher, Ed Bailey. Bailey is hitting.292, has 15 home runs and 39 runs batted in. Left hander against left hander. Now with runners at first and third, two out. Curveball bounced down. One big hop to Hodges and the side is retired as Gill walks the ball to the bag. And so for the Red Legs in the first inning, one run on Three Bay's heads, no errors and they left two men on. So at the end of one inning, a play, it's Cincinnati one and the Dodgers nothing. And now here's Vin. Well, say friends, when does a batter
- [22:09]
Vin Scully
call a pitcher an iron mark? Well, I'm sure you got the idea on that one. Of course, it's when the pitcher is having an off day. One, he's easier to hit than Iron Mike, the pitching machine. But you know, after the ball game, both pitcher and batter have the same name for genuine smoking enjoyment. For a genuine cigarette. And that of course, is Lucky Strike. And why Lucky? Well, here's why. A Lucky is all cigarettes, all fine tobacco, Mild, naturally good tasting tobacco that's toasted to taste even better, cleaner, fresher, smoother.
- [22:44]
Jerry Doggett
Have you tried a Lucky lately?
- [22:46]
Vin Scully
You'll say it's the best tasting cigarette you ever smoked.

Vin Scully
Well, Frank Robinson, who made the last out yesterday with a man at second base in the ninth, he struck out against Lebine, comes up in the first inning today and gets a base hit to drive in the. So at the end of one in England, play Cincinnati one and Brooklyn nothing. Dodgers ready to come up with Hodges leading the parade.
- [24:08]
Jerry Doggett
And right back to Jerry Gill, hitting.307, has 14 home runs, including one yesterday. And has had 16 runs batted in in his last 15 ball games. And Gill now is two behind Snyder in the RBI column for the Dodgers. Duke has 57 against the Red Legs. Hodges has an average of.350 for the year. This is the 17th meeting and the
- [24:32]
Vin Scully
clubs are all four.
- [24:34]
Jerry Doggett
Four here, four four in the east, and of course, eight and eight on the year. The Dodgers against the Western clubs on the road this year are 14 and 12, and since the all star game, have won 12 and lost 5. The Red Lakes during the same span of 1:10 and lost 6. Brooks Lawrence now set the pitch to Gil Hodges. Here's the wind up. And down it comes. Curveball is in for a strike. In case you joined us late. Manager Waldoffson and pitcher Don Newcomb were given a heavel by umpire Stan Landis before the bottom of the first inning got underway. Hodges swings at the high foul, coming back and out of play in the upper deck. And it's straight two to Hodges. A near capacity crowd here again at Crosley Field in Cincinnati. In games on this road trip, the dodgers have drawn 131,000 fans. Here's the wind up and the O2 pitch. Curve is outside. Ball one. One and two on Hodges. Top of the second. Red Legs lead, one to nothing. Playing in the second inning, New York nothing and Milwaukee nothing. In the fourth, Philadelphia and Chicago.
- [25:56]
Vin Scully
No score.
- [25:58]
Jerry Doggett
Here's the pitch to Gill. Fastball is grounded off to the left side. Holt cuts in front of McMillan. The ball goes right. Don Holt trying to go wide and in front of McMillan for the play on the ground. Ball couldn't field it. And with McMillan's view blocked by Holt, the ball went on through for a base hit to left field. So Hodges getting one through the left side hole. Had Hook stayed away, McMillan more than likely would have made the play on the ball. But Hoke, of course, had to cut over any ball he can get to. He's got to make a play on. But then he blocked McMillan's view and
- [26:32]
Vin Scully
the ball went right through.
- [26:34]
Jerry Doggett
Here's Amoros at bat now, and he takes the pitch on the corner for a strike. Sandy hitting.295, has five home runs and 19 runs batted in. And in 14 games as a starter is hitting.356. So Amros has been one of the hot hitters for the Dodgers. One on here in the second with nobody out. Curveball is popped into short right field. Wally Folst coming on. He's there now and makes the catch for the out. So Amorous flies out to Wally Post. One away. Hodges holding at first base. And here's Carl Furillo. Kyle yesterday had a home run, which proved to be the decisive margin. It came with a man on and the Dodgers won five to three. Hodges at first base with one out in the second inning. And it's the Red Legs one, the Dodgers nothing. The Red Leg infield now playing double play depth against Pirello Lawrence out of a stretch. Here's the pitch. The curveball is low and it's ball one. Zero count and the pitch. In for strike. Strike. Evens it up at 1 and 1. Lucky Strike talking to you today from Crosley Field in Cincinnati. Swings a big hop to third, Holes down to second for one. The throw to first. Double play. And the side is for T. And for the double play, a thousand luckiest go along to our VA hospital. After Wilkes Bar, Pennsylvania, they have a quarter of 10,000. And along comes the first thousand for the double play. So the Dodgers go down in the top half of the second inning with no runs, one hit, no errors and none left on. And at the end of an inning and a half, it's Cincinnati one and Brooklyn nothing. Okay then.
- [28:40]
Vin Scully
Well, here In Cincinnati, it's 1 51-North-251 back home. And as we synchronize the watches, we hope that's the way you come out too. You know, no matter which way the hour hand on your watch is pointing, you can always, always be sure of one thing. It's light up time. That ever so welcome moment when you reach for a Lucky and strike a match. Boy, there's just nothing like a Lucky. And the deep down smoking enjoyment of this genuine cigarette. A Lucky is all cigarette, all fine tobacco, mild, naturally good tasting tobacco that's toasted to taste even better. Cleaner, fresher, smoother. So light up a Lucky right now, you'll say it's the best tasting cigarette you ever smoked. Red Legs have a Run on three hits. The dodge is no runs on a hit as we go to the bottom of the second inning. Wally Post the batter.
- [29:32]
Jerry Doggett
And right back to Jerry post hitting.239. Dropped down in the batting order with a left hand pitcher going. Despite the fact that he hits on the right side, Post has not been hitting as well as Holt, so they've switched him around. So Holt has been hitting third and Post now dropped to the number seven. SP Millen on deck and Lawrence to follow. Wally Folst has 12 home runs and 50 runs batted in. Here's Padras with a wind up in the pitch. Curveball hit the inside corner. Strike one. Red Leg played, one nothing. Batting now in the last half of inning number two. Third game of the series. I just ready the wind up and here it is. Fly ball, foul off to the right. It'll come down out of play on the roof. Total Wally post to strike two count Roy McMillan on deck and Brooks Lawrence to follow. Red Lakes picked up a run in the first inning on a double by Temple. Infield single by Holtz and a single by Robinson. Here's a fresh ball inside and Post turns away from it. Ball one one and two. 12 pitch. Curveball tapped right back to the mound. An easy play for Podrick turns. Makes you throw the hodges in time. One away. Roy McMillan coming on now. The red leg shortstop hitting.250 before

Vin Scully
the

Jerry Doggett
giants lead Milwaukee one to nothing. With Milwaukee batting in the last half of the second. Philadelphia Chicago, no score. Phillies batting in the fourth. And the Cardinals lead Pittsburgh one to nothing with the Pirates batting in the fourth inning. Those are all first games of double hitters. The pitch down to McMillan is high and inside. Ball one. The Dodgers and the Red Legs are the only National League clubs playing a single game. The fastball is in for a strike. And it's one ball. One strike on McMillan. Boy, we've had some great games on this road trip. Just typical of the National League pennant race. The 1:1 pitch, foul ball off to the right. It'll be down in the sands. One ball, two strike on Roy McMillan. When the last half of the second, the red legs lead one to nothing. One out, none on. Padras winds and fires.
- [32:19]
Vin Scully
Curveball in the dirt and it's ball two.
- [32:21]
Jerry Doggett
Two and. Here's a pop foul. Coming back to the wire, out of play. Two balls, two strikes,
- [32:56]
Vin Scully
Turn two.
- [32:58]
Jerry Doggett
McMillan waiting with one out in the second. Rodris winds and changes up a swing and a bonnet ball wide of third in the hole is Neil Long. Throw is not in time. So McMillan is on as he had a ground ball deep in the hole. The shortstop Neal made a play on the ball, but his throw was not in time. Hodges had to go for a high throw, might have smoked the bag, but it was not in time. And McMillan gets a base hit. So that is hip number four off quadrants and two have been of the infield variety. Here's the picture. Brooks Lawrence coming on hitting.135, seven behind, hit in 52 times at bat. Lawrence at bat. Reese now playing at third, playing in close. Should Lawrence have front instructions? And a play to first baseman. Not in time. McMillan is back. Florence around the bunt. Back to the mound. Padres goes to second base. Base in time. Throw to first base. Not in time. So McMillan is forced as Lawrence bunts back to Padras, who wheeled and made a throwback to Charlie Neal. For the fourth play, really the first. Not in time to get Lawrence. So there are two outs with a runner at first base and Johnny Temple coming on. Temple doubled down the left field line and scored the run in the first inning. Red Legs lead it one to nothing. We're in the last half of the second innings. On first is Brooklyn Lawrence. Now. Padras out of a stretch, delivers a curveball on the inside corner. Strike one.
- [34:51]
Vin Scully
The Red Legs.
- [34:52]
Jerry Doggett
One run on four hits the Dodgers. No runs on one hit. Last half of the second. The fastball is in for a strike. Two to Johnny Temple. Nothing in two. Now again, Padra Freddy delivers outside high.
- [35:28]
Vin Scully
And it's ball one.
- [35:28]
Jerry Doggett
One and two on Johnny Tem Reese, Neil Gilliam and Hodges on the infield. Amaro Snyder and Perillo on the outfield. Campanella catching and Padras pitching. Johnny Temple the batter one.
- [35:42]
Vin Scully
Ball two.
- [35:43]
Jerry Doggett
Strike. Here's the pitch. Foul ball. Back to the wire and the count stays one and. One and two count. Here's the pitch. Ground ball hit the shortstop. Charlie Neal feeds Gilliam for the fourth out. And the side is retired. So for the Cincinnati Red Legs in the second inning, no runs on one hit, no errors, and one man left on. And at the end of two, it's Cincinnati one and the Dodgers have nothing.

friends, we've just learned from the Carl Furillo Night Committee that there will be five busloads of folks coming down from Carl's hometown of Reading, Pennsylvania, headed by Reading's mayor who will be down to Abbott Field with a double purpose. He wants to add the praise of Redding fans to those which will be heaped upon furlough and his fine family. But he also wants to meet one of Carl's teammates and post refictor with him for his fourth. Then you see the Mayor of Reading is named Dan McDevitt. Just another nice little touch in the pleasant picture building up towards the Carl Furillo Night. Hope you'll all be hand to be on hand and if you want to, why not contact the committee at the Hotel Bassett and get your tickets right now. That's August 28th, Carl Furillo night with Fern and Butch and John, the whole family at home plate, a lot of friends from Reading and we hope to make it a night that Carl and his family will never forget and for that matter for you folks are at the ballpark. We hope it'll be an extra enjoyable evening. The end of two innings. It is one to nothing Cincinnati and we'll pause for station identification. This is the Brooklyn Dodgers radio network, dial 1460.

Roy Campanella coming on now as the Dodgers go to bat in the third. Roy hitting.229, 12 home runs, 47 runs batted in. Lawrence winds and fires and the fastball is high inside. Ball one, Red legs lead one to nothing. Top of the third inning. Lawrence ready again. Here's the pitch, in for a strike at the knees and it's one and one lucky strike blowing it to you today from Crosley Field in Cincinnati. Curveball for strike two on Campanella. One ball, two strikes. A gentle reminder when you're out shopping to buy your Luckies by the carton. That way you're sure not to run short. 1 and 2. Lawrence Wines pitches outside for a ball and the counts. Two balls, two strikes on Campanella.
- [40:00]
Vin Scully
2, 2. Count

Vin Scully
Nobody out.
- [40:43]
Jerry Doggett
Re sitting 213. Now Lawrence ready. Here's the pitch to Peewee Butt up the third baseline, and Don Hook comes in to make the play, but has no play as Reese beats it out for a baseball. But Red Legs not expecting Reese to bunt. And with Holt laying back in. Double play depth. Pee Wee dumps the bunt along the third baseline and beats it out. And Holt came in, made a one hand grab on it, but had no play. So Campanella moves to second base, and it's a base hit for Pee Wee. Reid hit number two off Brooks Lawrence and the pitcher, Johnny Podrus coming. Larese with a base hit. Bunt single on the third baseline moves can't be to second base. And the Dodgers have two on, none out. Top of the third. The Red Legs lead one to nothing. And now the Red Legs look for the bunt with Holt and Crow on the corners, ready to come down the line toward the plate. Here's the pitch. Padras around the bunt, takes it low inside.

Vin Scully
Ball one.
- [42:05]
Jerry Doggett
Johnny waiting. Campanello on second and Reese on at first. Lawrence ready the pitch. Johnny bunts it along the first baseline.

Jerry Doggett
Lawrence will go to first base with his play. And the runners move over. So Padres with a nice sacrifice, gets Campellano to third and Reese down to second base. One out as Padres have tossed out from. From Brooks Lawrence to Johnny Temple covering at first base. Here's Charlie Neal up now. Charlie Flied to left field, his first time up. Batting average is.262. In the last of the third inning, the Giants lead Milwaukee 1 to nothing in the last of the fourth. Chicago and Philadelphia, no score in the last of the fourth. St. Louis leads Pittsburgh one to nothing. Final score in the first game in the American League. Kansas City beat Washington six to five. Detroit leads the Yankees four to two at the end, five to two at the end of three and a half innings. Two and a half innings make it a bounding ball to the right side and Temple Slay will go to first as Campanella comes in to tie up the ball game. So we've got a brand new one going as Charlie Neal bounces out to second baseman Johnny Temple. Campanella scores. Reese take third two away, 9 to 111 ball game 4 Neil a run batted in. Up will be Jim Gilliam with two outs and Reese on at third base. Gilliam flied to right his first time and junior hitting.249, Lawrence Wines. Here's the pitch in for a strike at the kn. Ground ball to the right side. In comes Johnny Temple has played a first in time for the out and the side is retired. So the Dodgers go down in the third inning, but pick up a run to tie the ball game. One run, one hit, no errors and one man left on. So at the end of the top of the third, it's Brooklyn one and Cincinnati won. To now hear.

Jerry Doggett
Lucky Strike.

Vin Scully
Mmm. Does that cigarette taste good? How come? Well, the Lucky's an honest to goodness cigarette. Nothing but fine tobacco, naturally mild tobacco that's good tasting to be. And then it's toasted to taste even better. All right, now let's get to that clubhouse chatter. The Dodgers have drawn over 950,000 so far this year, not including today's attendance. So they will easily go over the million mark before this trip is over. In fact, we'd do that in Chicago. A great attraction on the road, the Brooklyn Dodgers, by the way, Sandy Amorous and Roy Cavanella are the greatest moviegoers on the ball club. Roy says Sandy really enjoys those shoot em ups. Of course, that's baseball language for westerns. And with a lot of day ball games on the road, you can imagine a ball club will be wiling away many an evening watching the movies and as we would say, most of them shoot em up. Well, thank you, Happy Joe Lucky. And now we'll be going to the last of the third inning of a shoot em up of our own. It's a 11 tie, the Dodgers and Red Legs.

And fans still circulating around in the bleacher area out on the sun deck, trying to find a place to sit down. Another fine crowd here at Crosley Field. Madras delivers outside for ball and the count is 1 1. One ball, one strike. Gus Bell leading off in the third. The pitch bounced out to the right side. Gilliam over, makes the play, into Hodges in time. And it's one away. So Bell out on the ground. Ball. Gilliam to Hodges. One up, one down. And here's Don Holt. Holt got an Infield hit his first time, a hard smash to third. Don hitting.290, 14 home runs and 59 runs batted in. Here's his pitch. Slow curve is low.

Last of the third, all tied up at one and one. The Dodgers and the Red Legs in the final game of the series here at Cincinnati. It'll be back to Brooklyn a week from tomorrow as the Dodgers take on the New York Giants. There's a long drive to left field. And it's hooking this foul ball across the street. And up on the laundry, Dodger John Holt really got a hold of that one and hit it down the left field line, but pulled it foul. That ball was really tagged across the street. Up on the roof of the laundry, 353ft away. Just a long, noisy strike for Don Holt. One ball, one strike. Madras ready? Here's the pitch. Inside is the letters and it's ball two. Two and one, ball game tied, one one, one out. Then on third inning, Red Legs batting. It's a high fly ball to left field. Sandy Emerald's coming on slanting over toward the line. He's right there. He makes the catch right on the foul line. So Don hopes. Guys, out the left. It's two away. Chicago leads Philadelphia now one to nothing with a Phillies batting in the top half of the fifth inning. We'll have a complete rundown of all the scores from our Lucky Strikes scoreboard at the end of this half inning.

- [52:12]
Jerry Doggett
And here's Jerry. Duke flied to left field his first time up. Coming on now, leading off in the fourth inning, Schneider hitting.278. Brooks Lawrence into the wind. Up and down. Down comes the pitch. Changeup is outside high. Ball one to Duke. The Dodgers, one run on two hits. The Red Legs, one run on four hits. Playing in the top of the fourth inning. Lawrence into the wind. Up again. Here's the pitch. Outside. Ball two. The Red Legs got their run in the first inning on a double by Templin and the single by Frank Robinson. The Dodger run came on a walk to Camp. And I Lance. Single by Reese, sacrificed by Padras. And a ground out by Charlie Neal. Here's ball three down high to Duke. And it's three balls, no strike. Well, in the third inning, Campanella has the leadoff batter walked and he scored the run to tie the ball game. And now Schneider out in front on the count. Three and all the lineup and pitch is in for a strike. And it's three and one. In case you joined us late, manager Walt Austin and Don Newcomb chasing the ball game in the first inning. Duke takes it inside ball four. And Snyder is on with walk number two given up by Lawrence. Coming on now, Gil Hutches. Gill's got a single his first time up. Hit one in the hole between third and short. Gill hitting.309. A rather warm, lazy afternoon with a fine crowd on hand here at Crosley Field. Lawrence now working with Steiner on first base. Nobody out. The check in the pitch. Gill swings, and this is strike one. Went for the curve ball and didn't get it. Top of the fourth in a one one ball game here at Crosley Field. And boy, how close can you go? These teams have played 16 times and they've split them right down the middle. Here's the pitch. Curve is in for a strike. Two on the inside corner. Nothing and two on Hodges. Snyder on first. And Brooks Lawrence pitching for the Red Legs. Ed Bailey gives him a sign. Now the stretch. Here's the pitch. Gill swings and it's a soft ground ball out toward Temple. And he books the ball and all hands are saved. Temple coming in for the slow grounder. Tried to feed the ball to Roy McMillan. And the ball rolled up his left arm and behind him. And all hands are safe. An error on the second baseman, Johnny Temple. Snyder in his second base and Hodges on at first. The ball was hit slowly and it's shotful. Temple field of the ball cleanly that he could have made the double play. But as it was, they let the ball get away from him and everybody is safe. Here's Amorous up now, and the infield looks for the bunt. Sandy takes a curveball at the knees for a strike. George Crowe playing inside the bag at first base. And Don Holt a step or two down the line at third. Amaros batting, applied to right field his first time up. Strike one count. Here's the pitch. Amros running up the third baseline. It's a good bunt, and Holt has to play up now and he can't make a play. Holt decided to let the ball go, saw that it might stay fair, grabbed it, and he was too late. And all hands are safe and the bases are loaded for the Dodgers as Amaros rolled a bunt right along the chalk line up the third baseline. Don Holt came in, had decided, apparently let the ball go. But it did not go foul. And then Hook changed his mind. Grabbed the ball while it was still fair and then had no play. Amros on with a base hit. A bunt single. At third base is Snyder at second base, Hodges the batter, Carl Furillo. Carl bounced into double play his first time up. So the Dodgers now have something going here in the fourth inning. Bases loaded and nobody out. Ball game tied at 1 1. A walk, an error by Temple and a bunt single by Amaro. Trip number three for the Dodgers. And two of them have been bunched, the other by Pee Wee Reese.

They've now exceeded their quota as we sent along. 11,000 and more coming today.

It's a double play to retire the side.

It's back into the crowd on one to Charlie Neal. So thus far, Carl Furillo, the man of the are with that grand slam home run in the fourth inning. Which reminds us to remind you about Carl Furillo Night, August 28th. Hope you'll be with us and salute a great fellow. Lawrence looks in to get a sign for Matt Bailey. Neil waiting. Fastball is cut on and fouled away. The upper deck going two in the bottom of the first fifth inning. The Giants are leading Milwaukee one to nothing. That's Johnny Antonelli and Bob Trowbridge in that one. Line's ready. And the strike two pitch to Charlie Neal. Fast ball up high. Ball one one. Neil waiting. One ball, two strikes. Lawrence ready and delivers. Fastball. Got him swinging. Oh, Charlie strikes out. He is now over three. That for Brook Lawrence. The first strikeout that he has recorded. And the batter will be Jim Gilliam. John Gross begins the loosen up now with Smokey Burgess down in the Cincinnati Bullsend as Jim Gilliam is the batter. Lawrence is due to bat second when the Red Legs hit in the bottom of the fifth inning. Gilliam over two, batting.248 Jr takes a pitch down low. Ball one. Jim having a great deal of trouble getting his base hits. He started off very well, went into a vicious slump, then seemed to come out of it and fell right back down the manhole. 1o pitch is cut on and fouled away. 1 and 1.
- [72:12]
Jerry Doggett
It could very well be.
- [72:13]
Vin Scully
It's only a guess, but it could be that Gilliam's style of hitting has changed a great deal. For naturally, as the second hitter in a lineup, you're asked to do different things than to lead off. The one one fits the junior cut on, fouled away one and two. Whereas a leadoff man, Jim used to get on base a great deal with walk. Now in the second slot, he's swinging away constantly and isn't having a great deal of trouble getting his hits. One and two the count. The Jim on deck. Duke Snyder. Bertie Tebbett takes a peek down at his bullpen to watch Gross loosen up Lawrence Wines. And the one and two pitch to Gilliam. Inside two and two. The Dodgers have lost their manager, Walter Oston and fetcher Don Newton. Both men booted out before we got to the last of the first innings. The 22 pitch to Jim Gilliam cut on and hit to the hole at short. Over there to plug it up is McMillan, overhands to first just in time. So Gilliam is retired 6 to 3 on an Ilash play at first. Two outs. Keep talking about the Dodgers losing Austin and Newcomb in the first inning. You read about that young catcher at ballmorne, Zuppo. He was kicked out of the ball

the lineup cards had been brought up to home plate. That's right, he was warming up. The starting pitcher was thrown out of the game. He's only 17 and a half and I think he has now gone down in the books about the youngest major league player to ever be kicked out. Schneider takes a breaking ball. Low ball one one and O.

Snyder

Vin Scully
fly left and walked. He's batting 278. Five one Brooklyn two out in the fifth inning. Lawrence down with a fastball and misses. Low ball two two. Ed Hurley of the American League threw young catcher Zuppo out. Also said the boy had been warned a few days before for a little trick he seemed to have. The American League umpires didn't go for it. 2 oh pitch. The Snyder's whack foul into the crowd. What the youngster would do, I guess he would make him believe he was still back in the high school fields. He would be warming up the starting pitchers. And as the umpires would come walking out on the field to go to home plate, he'd make believe he'd throw the ball at them. And that did not go over at all. They finally kicked him out the other day while warming up a starting pitcher. Boy, that's a new one, isn't it? Ryan's just fussing around out there, looking. Two balls, one strike. Now Brooks is ready and delivers to the Duke, who hits one down towards Johnny Temple. It's a routine play, and John makes it.
- [74:53]
Jerry Doggett
So the Dodge is out in order
- [74:54]
Vin Scully
for the first time since the first inning. One, two, three. And at the end of four and a half innings of play, Brooklyn five, Cincinnati one. Okay, Jerry.

Jerry Doggett
Isn't this the way it is, fans? When you put a lot of work into the of something, you know it's done right. You really take pride in what you've accomplished, don't you? Well, I'll just let the Shaffer people feel that way about Shaffer Beer. You know, turning out a beer as good as Shaffer takes a mighty big effort picking and choosing rich barley malt, tangy hops, and other fine natural ingredients. But that's only the beginning, because it takes a lot more skill as well as years of experience to blend and brew the ingredients into beer. At its best, Shaffer Beer. But, man, the result is sure worth it. You get a brilliant golden amber brew that's pure pleasure. A beer that gives you the light, zesty flavor you want but don't always find. So make your next glass of beer real enjoyment. Shaffer Beer. It's real beer. All right, last of the fifth inning, McMillan coming on. And right back to the action.
- [76:11]
Vin Scully
Here's Vin Roy batting.257 at an infield single in the second inning. 1 for 1. McMillan in the pitcher spot. And Johnny Temple. Padres gets his first pitch over four strike. Pete Wisenin is over at the Bad Rush, so no doubt he will bat for Brooks Lawrence in the bullpen. Tommy Acker is back up, Don Gross sits down.

Will pitch to Brooklyn in the sixth inning. Padres delivers a strike one pitch and serves it high. One ball one strike. Dodgers five, Cincinnati one. Last of the fifth inning. We have a note or two on Carl Frillo's grand slammer. Pass it along to you. The one one er is on the outside corner. Strike two. Carl Frillo hit his grand slam home run in the fourth inning. It marked the eighth grand slam home run of his career. And oddly enough, four of his eight grand flammers have been hit at Cincinnati. Padres lines. The 1 and 2 pitch. Fastball cut on hit to right field. Frillo going back angling on the ball now turns full and makes the play. One up, one away. We'll get a station break in right now. This is the Brooklyn Dodgers Radio Network.

Now back to the Brooklyn Dodgers Cincinnati Red Leg baseball game. One out in the bottom of the fifth inning. Five one, Brooklyn and Pete Wizen batting for starting pitcher Brooks Lawrence. Pete a right hand batter, Rodgers. Fastball a little too low. Ball one one and Ozman batting.190. Right hand batter. Padres looks in to get his sign. Johnny ready. And the one oh pitch. Fastball in for the strike. One and one. So Brooks Lawrence worked five innings, gave up five runs. Four of the five runs earned. Five hits, walk two, struck out one. Carl Frillo chased him with the grand slammer in the fourth. The one one fits to Wisdom and change up. Padres bounces it up to the plate. Two balls, one strike. It's another fine crowd. It appears to be the same size crowd as we had the first night of the series Friday night. Which would put it up around 30,000. Padres ready. And the two one pitch fastball high and tight. Ball three clean one on deck. Johnny Temple. Sure. The crowd is somewhere around 30. The Dodgers will then go to Chicago. Having drawn over 980,000 on the road, we'll easily pick up 20,000 in three days at Chicago. Three 1er in there. Strike 2. So you can bet your boots that before we head for Milwaukee, the Dodgers will have drawn one million people. And not quite three complete road trips.
- [80:24]
Jerry Doggett
One more to go.
- [80:26]
Vin Scully
Tremendous attraction. We certainly hope you folks will be out of the ballpark when we get home. Padre's lines on the full count. Pitch to Wisdom. Fastball cut on a high foul. Back of the plate. Campanola coming back and shielding his eyes. But this is going to land up on the net. Running down to the bullpen. Joe Becker perhaps carrying a message down there. The Dodgers have, having gone over 900,000, this being their 45th ball game. Give you an idea. They've drawn over 20,000 per game on the road. I wouldn't want to buy Schaefer for everybody who's seen the Dodgers play on the road. All right, Padre's ready now. And the 32 pitch. Fastball caught on another high foul. This one might be playable. Campanola coming back. It is playable. And Campanella grabs it two down in the bottom of the fifth inning. Brooklyn 5, Cincinnati 1. And leadoff man Johnny Temple, the batter. Temple has been, well, just a plain test as far as Brooklyn is concerned. He has a double today. He had two singles and a double yesterday. And in the first game he had three singles. Oh, yeah. Seven hits in this series, John batting 287. They're having a great deal of trouble getting him out.
- [81:52]
Jerry Doggett
Padres delivers fastball.
- [81:54]
Vin Scully
Missing a little inside. Ball one. Brooklyn five runs on five hits. Cincinnati one run, five hits and one error. The one oh pitch to Temple. Breaking ball down low. Ball two, two and O. Campanella annoyed at the call, now starts to to walk the ball out towards the mound. Stan Landis, the plate on fire. Bill Baker at first, Frank d' Ascoli at second. Frank Sicore at third. Padres looks in. Campanello wig wags assigned to him. The 20 pitch on the outside corner for strike two and one on deck.

Jerry Doggett
Gus Bell, the Red Legs, got a

Vin Scully
run in the first inning. The Dodgers came back with one in the third and four four in the fourth on Carl Forillo's eighth Major league grand slammer. There's a line drive for a base hit. And Mr. Johnny Temple has his eighth hit of the series. Temple singles to center with two out in the fifth inning. And that will bring up Gus Bell. Bell has flied to left and bounced out batting.293. A very human D here in Cincinnati. You're watching the folks in the ballpark wave those scorecards like a thousand butterflies all over the place. Hope you have plenty of shape for wherever you are that'll prevent you from getting hot under the collar. Padres looks to first now. John delivers to Bell a slow curve on the outside corner for a strike. On one one of those pitches that starts to come in high and tight to a left hand batter and then breaks down and away own one. When the Dodgers hit in the sixth inning, they'll have Hodges, amorous and Perillo. The end of five innings of play, the Giants one, Milwaukee nothing. Antonelli and Trowbridge. Strike one pitch, sharp breaking curve, loan outside one one. The Cardinals lead the Pirates two to nothing at the end of six innings. Vernon Law and young Vaughn McDaniel in quest of win number five. The Cuds lead the Phillies one to nothing at the end of six. Curt Simmons and Tom Paholski. The one one pitch fastball hit down to Neil is up with it. Waits for Gilliam to get to the bag and hits him with his toss and they erase Johnny Temples. You know the boys are going into second base high today. Wow. Okay, in the fifth inning, no runs, one hit, a man left on at the end of five innings of play. Brooklyn five, Cincinnati one.

August 24th, camera day at Ebbett. Moving along now to the top half of the sixth inning. It'll be Hodges, Amoros and Perillo to come on and face Tom Acker, the new pitcher for the Red Legs. And with a checkup on Acker's record, the play by play. Here's Vin.
- [86:48]
Vin Scully
Tommy acker making his 31st appearance for Cincinnati. That'll tie him, or would have, with Brooks Lawrence. Lawrence made his 32nd today. Acker has started five times, primarily relief man, number 26 for him in relief. His record, nine wins and four defeats. Tom Acker, Gil Hodges first up, then Sandy Amoros and Carl Furlow in the sixth inning. Brooklyn, five runs on five hits and no errors. Cincinnati, one run, six hits and one error. Hodges single and get on. On Johnny Temple's error, he is 1 for 2, batting.308. Gill's uniform heavily stained now with perspiration. Of course, you notice it more on the traveling grays than you do on the home white uniforms. Accurate and the big fella delivers. Fastball cut on is a high fly ball and shallow left field that the line still in fairground comes McMillan to make the play. One up, one away. M is not feeling well, but he's staying right in there. He had a tooth pulled Friday. And in this hot weather, apparently it's starting to react a bit now. No, not the tooth. The tooth had it. Sandy Amos, batting.298, flied to right and singled 1 for 2. It's a line drive base hit into right field. So little Sandy's two for three. Wally Post gets it back in as Amaro's rifles.

One to right, tip number one off.

Vin Scully
Tommy Anchor hit number six for Brooklyn. And the hero for Brooklyn and the villain for Cincinnati, Mr. Carl Furillo coming up. Perillo got rich in a hurry with that grand slam home run in the fourth inning. He now has 48 runs batted in. He has hit nine home runs. He hit one yesterday with a man aboard. Carlton 264. The Dodgers quietly. There hadn't been too much said about it, but boy, are they rooting for Furillo. Acker sat, takes a peek in first, decides to throw over there. Furrilo, of course, has been known to carry the ball club right on his shoulders when he's ready. Hot. Hackers set and delivers to Frillo, who swings. There's a foul back of the plate. There'll be no play. It'll land on the screen. Owen 1. Remember 1949. It was Carl Frillo who just about picked up the entire Brooklyn ball club in the month of September and carried them right into the World Series. He has those spurts, the early part of this year. Carl whacked away, hitting way up in the free 30s. Then a combination of injuries and a hitting slump and he really fell off. And now the Dodgers hope he's taking the escalator back up to the penthouse. Throw to first. Amros, who had a short lead, is right back. Brooklyn 5, Cincinnati 1. We're in the sixth inning with one out. Packer set the strike one pitch to Trillo. Fastball cut on and fouled away off first base, coming over his Crow. But he has no play back into the crowd on two. The New York Giants came up with a run in the sixth inning. And at the end of five and a half innings of play, the Giants two and Milwaukee nothing. That's Johnny Antonelli and Bob Trowbridge to watch those ballgame very closely for you. Cardinals leading Pittsburgh 2 nothing at the end of 6. The Cubs lead the Phillies 1 nothing at the end of 6. Acker up on top. A look over at Amoros. The 0 and 2 pitch to Frillo. Sidearm and it's in there. Call strike three. Doll Furlough, caught looking, walks away. Amros holds on at first, two down in the battle, Roy Campanell. Campanella walked and fly deep to center. He's 0 for 1, batting.228. Five one. Brooklyn two out. Amorous at first base. We're in the sixth inning. Tom Acker set and delivers to Campanella, who swings and hits one to center. Gus Bell is right there, comes in a few steps to take it. And that does it in the sixth inning for Brooklyn. No runs, one hit, one man left on. They have only left two men at the end of five and a half innings of play. Brooklyn 5, Cincinnati 1.

Jerry Doggett
Ball game. Moving along to the last half of the sixth inning, the Dodgers five and the Red Legs one. It'll be Don Holt, George Crow and Frank Robinson. Coming on in the last half of the sixth inning. Johnny Potter's trying to hold that four run lead now. So let's get right back to the play and here's Finn.
- [91:48]
Vin Scully
Don Holt is batting.289. Holt today had himself a single and fly to left field. 1 for 2. Don Holt, George Crow and Frank Robinson. Should anybody get on, maybe Ed Bailey. Padres taking his warm up tosses. Johnny is soaking wet now Padres shows the perspiration. To show you how much he is perspiring around his knee. Use just cascading right down McDevitt yesterday he was soaking wet from shoulders to hips.

Jerry Doggett
All right, here we go.

Vin Scully
Bottom of the sixth inning, Red Leg fans begin that familiar hand clap now as Hoult settles in. Padres lines comes to him and the fastball is inside. Ball one, one and zero. Brooklyn, five runs, six hits and no errors. Cincinnati one run, six hits and one error. We're in the bottom of the sixth inning. Padre's back again. One zero and the fast ball is inside. Ball two, two zero. Padre's ready. And the two zero pitch. Fast ball over at the knees. Two and one. The dugouts here in Cincinnati are air conditioned, at least in the respect. They're not sealed in as to completely air condition a space, but they have cool air being blown in around the roof of the dugout. It circulates it. Two one fits the hulk at the knees. Strike two. Two and two. We understand the Yankees have put air conditioning in their dugout here in Causley Field. They've done it for both the home team and the visitors. Polk waiting. 2 and 2. Padres back. Fastball fouled away. Holding count. 2 and 2. One other innovation that the Cincinnati Red Legs have come up with, they've taken a square piece of foam rubber. Oh, it's only about an inch thick and they use that in the on deck circle for the next batter to kneel on. Two tourists caught on hit the left field. Amorous comes on under it and takes it one up, one away. George Cole will be the batter. Anytime you read in the paper that someone mentions, let's say air conditioning in the dugout or foam rubber for the batters in the on deck circle, some old timer will come out and be quoted as saying, well, they're pampering the ball players. It appears that the old timers are the only people in the world did not want the business to be improved. The business of playing baseball. Crow swings and fouls it away on one. The actually fine at for instance, out here, here in very hot weather the players still move around a lot better because of the cool dugout. They get a chance to rest, which means better baseball for the folks watching it. George Crow takes a curveball outside, 1 and 1. Five one, Brooklyn, bottom of the sixth inning. Padre's back again and the curveball is cut on. There's a high belt, the deep right center. Frillo running parallel to the left fence and makes the play for the out. I don't believe Schneider ever saw the ball. It was up to Pirillo. The ball was hit into deepest right center and Snyder never moved in straightaway centers. And Furillo with a left hand batter up there close to the line in right field, ran as hard as he could parallel to the little barrier fence and hauled it in in right center. And Schneider, even as Brillo caught the ball, had not moved. So I'm sure that Duke had no idea where it was. Two down in the sixth inning and the batter is Frank Robinson. He is 2 for 2. Single twice, batting 3145 1. Brooklyn in the six. Robinson steps in. Rodriguez winds and delivers fastball that moves him back 4:1. You know, you always talk about hitters and the fact that they have a good background or a bad background with a. They're hitting. Outfielders have problems looking into the shirt sleeve crowds trying to pick off that baseball. The 1o pitch to Robinson. Fastball, a line drive. It's foul outside of first. Back into the crowd. One and one. Padrez with a new baseball. Campanella holds up his right hand to slow him down a moment. John bends at the waist to get his sign. Now he's ready. The 11 pitch to Robinson. Fastball caught on is a high pop up and foul ground. Campanella to the left of the plate, shielding his eyes and makes the play for the out. There's a very hazy sky up there. We have some blue skies today, but mostly a lot of clouds. The humidity seems to have put a spell over us.

Okay, Finn. In the ball game at Milwaukee. First game of a doubleheader. The Giants lead Milwaukee 2 to nothing at the end of six innings of play. Antonelli against Trowbridge in the first of two at St. Louis. At the end of six innings of play, the Cardinals lead the Pirates 2 to nothing. It's Law and Von McDaniel in the first of two at Chicago. Also at the end of six innings of Play, Chicago one and Philadelphia nothing. So shutouts working in all three games in all three games at the end of six innings of PLAY. First games of double hitters in the American League. At the end of five and a half innings to play, Detroit leads the Yankees 6 to 3. Poitiak against Larson and Byrne with bowling a home run. That's the first of two. Chicago and Burn Baltimore all tied 33 at the end of six innings of play. Harshman and Fisher for the White Sox, Odell for Baltimore. Cleveland leads Boston 6 to 1 at the end of six and a half innings of play. And in the first of two, Kansas City beat Washington 62

Eight major league grand slammers came in the fourth inning. Carmacker winds and the strike one pitch to Pee Wee. Overhand curve bounces. Johnny Temple's right. He's up with it now. Turns and throws him out. Reese bounces out the Temple. One up, one away. Johnny Padres making his way up to home plate now. Red Leg's got a runoff. Padres in the place first. First inning with runners at first and third and two out Frank Robinson single or over. Johnny Padres batting.079. He has three hits today. He is sacrificed and hit into a double play offal one. Acker winds and delivers and Padres takes a strike. When Cincinnati comes to bat in the bottom of the seventh inning, especially for you folks who are not keeping score, it'll be Ed Bailey, Wally Post and Roy McMillan. Spots curveball is hit into the hole on the right side. But Temple is there to plug it up and throws to Crow. Two up, two away. Charlie Neal slide to left, bounced out and struck out batting 2 60s. Neal settles in the hitters box now. Billy Herman directing the club from the third base coaching box for pitch to Neal in for the strike on one. In case you might have just joined us after the Dodgers did not score in the first inning and Gilliam had argued briefly on a called strike before

Vin Scully
in the the bottom of the first, Walter Alston and Don Newcomb were banished by plate umpire Stan Landers. Fastball on the inside corner for a strike on two called Billy Herman, third base coach and acting manager. Hacker right back. Oh, and two. And the fastball is high and inside ball one. One and two. Saluting our Shafer award winners for this week. Randy Jackson for his fine hitting and all around play at third and for his fine pitching. Johnny Padres 1 and 2 pitch to Neal has cut on and missed and Charlie is struck out for the second time today. Neal's starting to get into a kind of a strikeout slump now. Twice today, twice yesterday, once before that, twice the day before that, twice the day before that. So you get the idea now that Charlie and that leadoff spot striking out a great number of times. Dodge is out in order in the seventh inning. So at the end of six and a half innings of play, Brooklyn five, Cincinnati won. Now here's Jerry.

You know fans, the mark of a great pitcher is being able to give the catcher just the kind of pitch he calls for. And when you think about it, it's the same way with brewing beer. The mark of a great brewer is being able to give the customer just the kind of beer is calls for. Well, that's exactly what the Shaffer people have been doing for well over a century. You just give the signal for a tall golden amber glass of Shafer and you'll get exactly what you like in beer. Yes, sir, the light and dressy flavor you want but don't always find. You see, that's the way Shaffer is brewed. It's brewed carefully, expertly to develop all the true beer characteristics and smooth, satisfying flavor you expect in beer. Every glass of Shafer beer is right in the strike zone. Right there for real lip smacking enjoyment. Put a cool, foamy glass of Shaffer in your hand right now. You'll see it's real beer. Last of the seventh inning. Ed Bailey coming on and right back to play. Here's vim.
- [103:24]
Vin Scully
Ed is 0 for 2, bounced out in the first inning and hit into a double play, taking a half swing in the fourth. Bailey batting.290. Bailey posts and we'll see about Roy McMillan. Don Gross begins to loosen up in the bullpen now, along with Herschel Freeman. Bailey takes a pitch in first sight on one. Padres back with a curveball. It breaks, blown away. One ball, one strike. Ed Bailey, first man up. Bottom of the seventh inning. Brooklyn 5, Cincinnati 1. Padres gets a sign from Campanella. The one one a curveball cut on is a high pop fly and a very shallow center. Gilliam going out. Snyder coming on. Gilliam calling and makes the play. One up, one away. That will bring up Wally Post, head back to the box and bounce out to Reese. Wally hitting 237. Padres is not striking out many batters today. In fact, he has only one strikeout. He struck out George Crow in the first inning. However, John has not walked a man. Pitch. Little outside, ball one, one and zero, open date tomorrow for the Dodgers. In fact, Brooklyn will stay overnight here in Cincinnati and fly up to Chicago tomorrow evening. The ball club wants to watch that heavyweight fight tomorrow night. The 1 oh pitch is cut on and fouled away one on one. So we'll fly up to Chicago, check into the hotel and be able to watch Lloyd Patterson and Tommy Hurricane Jackson. Then we'll be back on baseball come Tuesday. Newcomb and Magaly against the Cubs. Curveball is grounded foul to the left of the plate. 1 and 2. On deck.

the seventh inning, one out. The one and two pitches to Wally Post. Fastball just inside. Two and two. Padres back to action. And the two two pitch to Post. Fastball high ball three, full count. Those two pitches are the usual type pitch. That Lollipost swings at Padres, strikes outpost a great deal. And on that tight pitch, iron inside first around the letters, maybe the next one up around the chin. But neither time did Wally offer.

Two pitch to Wally Post. Fastball grounded to Gilliam, who has to move way over to his left to come up with it and then makes his play to Hodges. So Wally Post, a big pull hitter, hardly got that bat around at all on the fastball and hit it to Gilliam. Two down in the seventh inning and

Strike one. Slow curve reached for and pulls foul outside the left field line and down into the bullpen on 2 million. Just kind of bent over the plate, wristed at it and pulled her foul. No balls, two strikes, two out, bases empty. Seventh inning, Brooklyn five, Cincinnati one. And Shea for Beard. Delighted to be sending it all to you from Crosley Field in Cincinnati. Strike two pitch, overhand curve, got him looking on the outside corner. Called Strike 3. McMillan growls a little bit as he walks away. That for Padres, his second strikeout. He got close swinging in the first innings. The end of seven innings. Brooklyn, five runs, six hits and no errors. Cincinnati, one run, six hits and one error.

to right and has bounced out twice, batting.247. Carmacker looks in to get his sign. This will be Tommy's last inning. He's due to bat first in the box of the eighth. Packer to his wind up now and delivers to Gilliam. Fast ball at crouch in the bed. Ball one. The Dodgers are facing a problem right now in their lineup for the first two men in the batting order not getting on base, Neil and Gilliam. The one off, it's the junior cut on and is a base hit. So Jim finally breaks the drought and gets a single to right. Hit number two off anchor. However, the shortcomings of Neil and Gilliam at the top of the order can

Furlough come swinging back. Furlough's grand slammer in the fourth inning is the difference of this game. Brooklyn 5, Cincinnati 1 in the eighth. Duke Snyder over two, batting.277. Ackard checks Gilliam and delivers inside a golf set of pitch and doesn't get it on one. Macaretti. Another check of Gilliam. Now the strike one fits the Snyder AL runs up as if to bunt and the pitch is low. One ball one strike in the Cincinnati bullpen. Art Fowler now begins to loosen up with utility outfielder Pete Wiseman. Art Fowler outfield on the Duke deep and around the right. So much so that Snyder has all of straightaway center field to shoot at. Bell is way over into right center. McMillan is over shifted to plug up the middle. He's near the bag at second and Hope is playing in on the grass. Accurate the 1:1 pitch to Snyder. He tries to butt and foul tips it 1 and 2. Brooklyn five runs, seven hits and no errors. Cincinnati one run, six hits and one error. The Cubs leading Philadelphia one to nothing. And Turk Loun has just come on to relieve Tom Poholski. So Philadelphia might be kicking up some dirt now at Wrigley Field. One and two hackers straddling the rubber goes to the Rosinbag. Now he's up on top.

The 1 and 2 pitch to Snyder cut on is a high drive to deep center. Gus Bell up the terrace through the wall at the wall leaps, but it's off the top of the wall. Gilliam had to hold up and goes to third on Schneider's double. Gilliam now comes to the plate and runs right through Herman's sign to score. Billy Herman had held Gilliam up. He was waving his hands at Junior. And Gilliam just kept on coming. As the throw went to shortstop Roy McMillan, who turned and fired at to second. And Gilliam, without a play being made on him, scored all the way. So Snyder doubles to center and Gilliam legs it over for the run. So the Dodgers now lead 6 to 1. But Junior had his mind made up. He was coming. The batter is Gil Hodges with Snyder at second. Nobody out. 6 1. Brooklyn Hacker delivers and Hodges runs up the butt and takes it low. Ball one. Snyder's drive to center came within two feet of clearing the center for your walls. Bell went up the terrace to the wall, leaped as high as he could and was about a foot short in his leaps. Ed Bailey and pitcher Tommy Acker now meet halfway between home plate and the mound. Brooklyn 6, Cincinnati 1. We're in the eighth inning. Dodgers trying to pile it on before a big crowd here at Crosley Field. After Hodges comes Amorose Boy, Gill is soaking wet. Real summer day out here at Cincinnati. The Cincinnati summer day. The 1o fix. The Hodges cut on and foul by 1 and 1. Gill appeared to be trying to take a shot to right though that time at least Wally F. Thought so. He was breaking towards the line. One and one. That ball ran up the screen. Stuck in the screen. The crowd gets a few giggles out of that. Voice in the background. Giving us the Official tape. Attendance 28,524. 28, 524. Accurate. Check second. The 11 pitch is outside. Backhanded by Bailey. Ball two. Hodges around a bunch. Two and one. So it's 28,524. Added to the previous two attendance figures. The Dodgers and the Red legs in this three game series averaged a little more than 26,000 per game. Also, 78,268 accured a look at Snyder has a pretty good lead off second, the 21 pitch to Hodges. He pushes a butt in the air and it lands foul outside of first, two and two. The Philadelphia Phillies came up with two runs in the eighth inning. At the end of seven and a half innings of play. The Phillies two and Chicago one. The Cardinals have added another run in the eighth inning for the end of eight innings to play the Cardinals four and the Pirates nothing. That's Vaughn McDaniel pushing the shutout thus far at the end of seven innings, the Giants two and Milwaukee nothing. Two and two the count. The Hodges six one, Brooklyn nobody out in the eighth inning. Tom accurate in relief of Brooks Lawrence. Sidearm curve is outside, ball three. Full count. Both the Dodgers have drawn roughly.278 or 978,000 thus far this year. So another 20,000 or so in Chicago and we'll be over the million mark on the the road. The three two pitch to Hodges. Curveball, and he just does check his swing. It's outside. Ball four, Ed Bailey for test. Gill started offer and just did check. Hodges at first base of the walk. Snider at second, nobody out. And Sandy Amorous to batter. Amros flying to right, has a front single and line to single to right, batting.303. Six one Brooklyn. They're looking for more here in the eighth inning. Hoke is inside the bag at third, expecting a bunch. Accuredtti delivers Samros, who takes on the outside corner for a strike on one. Roy McMillan riding Duke. Snyder's back at second, trying to cut down his lead. Crowe is not holding Hodges. He's inside the bag and ready to come to the plate. Hart Fowler continues to throw away in the Cincinnati bullpen. Carmacher set, checks his men at first and second. Now the strike one fits to Amorose. He does bunt up along third. It's a good one. Hulk will have to hurry to get him and just does so. Amos come to find the sacrifice works. Clay going five to three, Hodges to second, Snyder the third. First base is open and Carl Furillo the batters. After Furlough comes Campanella. Furillo hit into a double play in the second inning, but then hit a grand slam home run in the fourth. He chased in Schneider, Hodges and Amoros, who were all aboard ahead of him. Furillo's struck, outlooking his last time up, batting 2. 63 runners at second and third. One out, six 1. Brooklyn in the eighth. And Birdie Tepetanis in the dugouts to his catcher, Ed Bailey. Put him on. O' Bailey holds his right arm wide and Takes the first toss outside. So Carl Frillo receives an intentional walk. And they will fit to Roy Campanello. Ball two to Carl Schneider. Holding in third, Hodges at second. Packer set, lobs the third one wide, 3 0. You know, an odd thing in a sense, the way they talk about the rabbit ball all the time. The the only home run hit today in the National League thus far has been Furlough's grand slammer in the fourth inning. Giants, Milwaukee. It's two nothing. Giants at the end of seven. It's four nothing. Cardinal over Pirates at the end of eight. It is two to one. Phillies over the Cubs at the end of seven and a half. No home runs in any of those games. All right, here's Roy Campanella with the bases loaded and one out in the eighth inning. Brooklyn 6, Cincinnati 1. Campbee batting 2.0, has walked and twice flied to Gus Bell. Infield and double play depth. Now Acker winds and delivers to Camp and the curveball low and away. Ball one pass to Campanella. Peely Reese. Brooklyn six runs, eight hits and no errors. Cincinnati one run, six hits, one error. Ramiaka Wines. And the 10 pitch to Campanella. Fastball inside, ball two, two and oh. Schneider at third, Hodges at second, furlough at first. One out. Packer looks in to get his sign from Bailey. Now tall Thomas is ready. Wines and the two zero pitch to Campanella. Fastball in there, two and one. When Cincinnati bats in the bottom of the eighth. Hackers spot is due up first. Then Johnny Temple and Gus Bell.

Jerry Doggett
Kavanaugh just waiting.

Vin Scully
Hacker staring in. Two balls and one strike. Hacker now backs off the rubber and just as quickly gets back on, looks to third. Ghost was wind up and the 21 pitch to Campanalla. Fastball caught on is a high fly ball to right. It's deep. Wally Post going back to grab it. Tagging up is Schneider. Going to third is Hodges. And everybody makes it. Snyder comes over and Hodges goes to third. And the Dodgers lead seven to one. Goes Campanella scoring fly ball to right field. Schneider comes coming over. Hodges going to third and Furlough holding it. First. Two runs off Tommy Acker. Dodgers 7, Cincinnati 1. Two out on the eighth inning. Runners at first and third. In the batter, Pee Wee Reeves. Pee Wee is 2 for 3, a bunch single, single to center and bounced out hitting.221. Macarettian delivers and a burnt up along the third baseline drops foul. So Reese trying to bunt for a base hit and get Hodges over. It's not a squeeze play, not with two out Peewee bonnet or foul on one Schaefer beer. Sending it to you and we certainly hope that you're buying your Shaffer especially over the weekend times in the convenient party sized quart bottle. Of course the best way really to buy Schaefers by the case. On one Macarenny and delivers curveball fell to the left field. Robinson almost in his tracks takes it at his chest for the out the reef lines to left and for the Dodgers in the game 8th inning. They add two runs on two hits, a single, a double and a scoring fly ball and they leave a couple at the end of seven and a half innings of play. Brooklyn 7 and Cincinnati 1.

Set to play in the last half of the eighth inning, Ted Pasoi coming on to bat for Tom Acker. The Dodgers out in front now 7 to 1. So let's get right back to play.
- [125:08]
Vin Scully
And here's Ben Pazewski is batting 284. He has three home runs, nine runs batted in as a pinch hitter. Yesterday he singled into the hole to right field as a pinch hitter. The night before he flied to left. So Ted is one for two in this series. Laszewski, Temple and Bell. Bottom of the 8th inning, 7 1. Brooklyn Padres fastball a little low. Ball 11 0. We just have a report on the final score. The St. Louis Cardinals shut out the Pirates 4 to nothing. Young Von McDaniel, 18 years old, pitched a 1 hitter. The 10 pitch to Kwasi is drilled. A right center. Snyder chasing that one. She's gone. Ed Klosewski, who always gets a good piece of the ball against Johnny Padres, comes walking off the bench and drills one of his faculties. A low line drive. Home run. And it is now Brooklyn 7, Cincinnati 2. Here in the bottom of the 8th inning, Johnny Temple takes the strike. Liszewski now has 4 home runs, 10 runs batted in. A low line drive into the right center field seats Padres back with a fastball. It moves Temple out of there. One ball, one strike. Don Gross throwing in the Cincinnati bullpen now. And back of Padres is Don Drysdale. In this heat, you really have to watch your starting pitchers. Rodriguez to his wind. Up now the 1:1 pitch. A changeup caught on and lined to center field. A clean base hit. Snyder up with the ball. So home run by Klisiewski. A bullet single to center for Temple. And here comes Gus Bell. That for Johnny Temple. His third hit of the game. He had three hits yesterday and three the day before. Nine hits in the series for Johnny Temple. Sandy Koufax trotting down to the the dodger bullpen now. Brooklyn 7, Cincinnati 2. In the bottom of the eighth inning. Johnny Temple at first base and Gus Bell, who was.03 the batter gos batting.292. Padres looks to first and delivers a curve and spins it low. Ball 11 and 0 on deck. Down Holt. The Red Lakes came up with a ninth inning rally yesterday, but fell the to short. Picked up three to lose five three trying to rally here in the eighth. Dodgers lead 72. Fastball. The bell is cut on and popped up. Charlie Neal floating over to his left a bit. Backs up now as the wind takes it. And now Charlie grabs it for the out. The Bell pops up the short. Johnny Temple holds it first and Don Hoax the batter. Hulk is 1 for 3 single in the first inning. Don batting 288. Padra set. Hodges not holding Temple on. Fastball to Don Hulk at the knees for a strike on one. Brooklyn seven runs on eight hits and no errors. Cincinnati two runs, eight hits, one error. The strike one pitch. Fastball cut on a high foul. Back of the plate. Campanella coming back. It's playable. He's under it. He's got it. Two down now. Here comes George Crow with two out. Johnny Temple at first. First place, bottom of the eighth inning, 7 2, Brooklyn Crow is 0 for 3, batting.298. Codres delivers, George swings, there's a slice. Pop fly to the left side. Charlie Neal backing out and takes that one. So the enthusiasm here at Cincinnati was promptly dampened by Johnny Padres. Klisiewski at a home run, Temple single and then Bell popped up, Holt fouled out and Cole popped up for the Red Legs. One run on Klisiewski's home run, two hits, the man left on at the end of eight innings of play, Brooklyn seven, Cincinnati two. Okay, Jerry.

Well, friends, before we leave Cincinnati, we want to remind you of a terrific day to Ebbitts Field. You recall the Saturday game rained off the schedule during the last visit of the Red Legs. Well, it will be played as part of a tremendous Twinite doubleheader at ebbett field, Tuesday, August 20th. Now, we don't have to warn you about what that means. A race for tickets of scores. So do your sh for that big doubleheader with a red leg. August 20th. The same two teams clash in a day game. August 21st. Their last meeting after circle the date, August 20th. A double header, the Dodgers and the Red Legs. A twin header at Ebbets Field. For fans, we certainly got some big dates coming up when the Dodgers get back home. Beginning right off with the Giants and the Dodgers on Monday night, August the first fifth, a week from tomorrow, the Dodgers get back home playing a four game stand against the Giants Monday and Tuesday at Ebbets Field. Wednesday at Jersey City, that's August 7th. And Thursday, August 8th, at Field against the Giants. So a lot of baseball coming up when the Dodgers get back home in August. And the old pennants chase going right down to the wire. A reminder also that Thursday's game from Chicago will be on TV as well as on radio. Broadcast time will be 2,25. That'll be the final game of the series between the Dodgers and the Cubs at Chicago. A day off tomorrow, doubleheaders on Tuesday and Wednesday and a single game Thursday, the Dodgers at Chicago. So lots of action coming up this week. Well, we go to the ninth inning now with Podras the first batter. So coming back in for the play by play for Shae for Bear here.

Don Gross will be the third Cincinnati pitcher, left hander making his 24th appearance. He started 12. And now this is 12th relief appearance. Don, I guess is like that. What was it? The little girl with the curl in her forehead. When she was good, she was very, very good. And when she was bad, well, he won his first four. He was four and old. He has lost the next six. So he's now four and six. Go seven is troubled right now. Comes on and release. The Pitch to Padres 7 2, Brooklyn, 9th inning. The sidearm pitch up high and outside. Ball 1. Don Drysdale continues to tune up with Joe Becker in the Dodger bullpen. Gross ready. And back comes the one zero pitch and the fastball is low and away. Ball two two and oh. Dodgers seven runs, eight hits and no errors since. 92 run, eight hits and one arrow. 20 pitch on the outside corner for a strike 2 and 1. So the Dodgers, after losing two out of three to St. Louis, trying to win two out of three here at Cincinnati. Two one at a Padres, a line drive base hit up the middle. Josh Bell comes on to field it and Padres at first place. I don't know if the Dodgers might see that base hit. With mixed emotions, they lead by five runs in the ninth inning. It's a very hot day and I imagine the boys would just as soon see Padres back in the cool of the dugout. But there he is at first. Single or center base hit number one off Don Gross at number nine for Brooklyn. The banner is Charlie Neil, who is awful four. But what is bothering and perplexing him a bit is the fact that he is striking out. He's struck out two out of four times again today, hitting.259.

Away back to the barrier fence to leap up and grab it. And back the first comes Johnny Powell. Padrez. Nice play by Wally Post. O' Neal at that a long way. And Post calls her in. The batter is Jim Gilliam.

four single to write in the eighth inning and kept on coming to score on Snyder's double off the center field Wall. Jim combatting 250, looking for base hit number 99. Only one Dodger has 100 hits. Gil Hodges has 108. Gross delivers and Gillian takes a strike on one. One out, ninth inning, seven two, Brooklyn. When Cincinnati bats in the bottom of the ninth inning, they'll have Frank Robinson, Ed Bailey and Wally Post. Strike one fits to Gilliam on the inside corner. Strike two. Boy, it's Schaefer weather here in Cincinnati, Pappy. What kind of weather do we have in New York? Same type weather, huh? Schaefer weather back there. Well, we hope you folks are having plenty of cold tapered. He found a comfortable spot and hope you're having a nice weekend. The 0 and 2 pitch is cut on and fouled away. Holding count, no ball too tight. Gross takes a peek at first. The strike. Two pitches out there side ball one. One and two. Milwaukee Braves are now at bat in the bottom of the ninth inning and the Giants lead two to nothing. Gilliam swings and misses. Down he goes. O Gross records a strikeout. Two out in the ninth and the batter Duke Schneider, Snyder walked, bounced out, fly to left and doubled high off the center field wall to drive in Gilliam. Duke batting 280. Gross looks over at Padres, delivers to Snyder and the curve is over. Strike one for Giants, two, Milwaukee nothing. Bottom of the ninth inning. The St. Louis Cardinals have already won their ball game, four to nothing over Pittsburgh on a one hitter by Von McGuire. Daniels. Breaking ball to Snyder. Down low, one and one. Don goes ready and delivers to Snyder. Another sidearm curve on the Outside corner, one and two, two out of the night, seven to Brooklyn. GROSS Delivers 1 and 2 to Snyder, swings, and there's a high fly ball to right field. Wally Post is there, coming over close to the foul line, but he's still in fair ground and takes it for the out. So Padres opens up with a single and the next three batters go out in the ninth inning. No runs, one hit, a man left on at the end of eight and a half innings of play. Brooklyn 7, Cincinnati 2. And I imagine Johnny Padres will take a couple of minutes before he gets out there to the mound. So while we have a chance, let's listen to Jerry.

Well, Vinny, the Shaffer people certainly know how to make good beer, that's for sure. And they know how to package it for your convenience too, friends. Just for example, take the handy Shaper half quart can. Now there's a real thoughtful can, really. It's got a nice handy shape, so easy to carry, so easy to hide away in your refrigerator. It doesn't get in the way when you're storing it and it cools quick, like if you're in a hurry. But the most thoughtful thing is this. It holds 16 delicious ounces of throat pleasing Shafer beer. Two full glasses of golden amber goodness. One for you and one for your wife, maybe. Or you might want to share it with a guy next door. In fact, you can be real thoughtful and put the whole can by his chair. That way he can pour his own second glass when the first goes dry. So why not stock up, get in a supply of Shaffer half Quart cans. They each hold two full glasses of real enjoyment Shaffer Beer. It's real beer. Well, the Dodgers have an off day tomorrow. Go to Chicago, Chicago Tuesday for a doubleheader and a doubleheader on Wednesday, single game on Thursday. Then to Milwaukee for a weekend series Friday night, Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon. And then back to New York for a big Monday night, Aug. 5, attraction against the New York Giants. So make your plans. Be on hand with the Dodgers. Get back home. Into the last half of the ninth inning here. Dodgers lead 7 to 2. Robinson, Bailey and Post coming on to face Johnny Potters, who just now sticking his warm up. So we'll get back to the action. And here's Vin.

I wish I had said that slower. Jerry, I. I don't mind you rushing through the schedule out here, but when you say don't, you say get back home real slow. It sounds so good, you know, kind of coming back home. Shut up, boy. Well, Johnny, Padre is ready to work in the bottom of the night. Ninth inning. Seven two, Brooklyn. Now, Johnny got that base hit in the top of the ninth and stood at first base while the next three men went out. You can bet your boots the Dodgers will watch him very carefully now. In fact, in the bullpen, they have Eddie Roebuck and Sandy Kofikes firing back of him, for it's blazing hot down on the floor of this ballpark. There's a hot one wide of third off Reese's glove, picked up by Neil. He throws. Not in time. A nice throw by Charlie Neal. Frank Robinson hit one wide of third. Reese got his fingertips on it and couldn't hold it.

Bottom of the ninth inning and a ringing wet Johnny Padres out there in the mound. Ed Bailey is 0 for 3, batting.289. Padres delivers and the fastball is in for the strike on one. With the Dodgers leading by five, they're going for out, so Hodges will not hold Robinson the infield back in a normal depth. Reese, however, protecting the bag at third as Bailey swings in. Beats one foul to the right of the plate. Oh, and two. Charlie be singing up and down the National League today, at least right now. For the final score is in from Milwaukee. The New York Giants and Johnny Andonelli have shut out the Braves, two to not. Padres set.

Two pitch to Bailey, cut on and missed strike three. And he gave him a real slow curve. Bailey tried to time it. It almost fell out of his uniform trying to check his swing and then started again. So Padres gets his third strikeout of the afternoon. One out on the ninth, and the batter, Wally Post, who is 0 for 3. Wally batting.236. The outfield goes the other way now.

Frank Robinson at first in the ninth. 7 2, Brooklyn. Each side, nine hits. The Red Legs have committed an error. Fastball is cut on. There's a high fly ball down the left field line. Neal going out and slanting into foul ground. Amaro's coming on. It's Neil on a brilliant catch in the bullpen. Charlie Neal all over the place. Makes a fine catch way down in the red leg bullpen. And it is extremely tough territory down there for a couple of reasons. First, because the field slopes in power ground for drainage purposes. You Start to run downhill and Charlie was running with his back to home plate. And secondly, he had to watch himself. Or if he had stepped on one of the home plate rubbers in the bullseye, he might have taken a header. Charlie stayed with it and made the play. Fine running catch by Charlie.

Two out in the ninth inning. Brooklyn 7, Cincinnati 2. And the batter is one. It was one for three, batting.255. Crowd of 28,524 on hand today. Padres delivers fastball to Little Mack and it's inside. Ball one. Johnny Padres checking side with Campanella ready. And the 10 pitch. Fastball down low. Ball 2, 2 and 0. Sometimes when a ball club has, oh, a five run lead in the ninth inning and two outs, you'll see the pitcher wind up. He's going to disregard the base runner at first, but Padre is not doing that. He's keeping an eye on Robinson anyway and working from his best position. McMillan writing 2 and O. Padres delivers and gets the outside corner for a strike. 2 and 1. Tomorrow, the off day. And we'll be talking to you Tuesday afternoon. It'll be Don Newcomb and Sal Magley in a doubleheader with the Chicago Cubs. And there'll be another one, another double header on Wednesday. Padres delivers two. One fastball is lined to left field. Ambrose coming over, grabs it at his chest for the out. And the Dodgers have won a big one and have taken two out of three from seven, Cincinnati. And Johnny Padres, who is all pitcher and he is brilliant away from home in particular, has done it again on the road. Jerry has some fine statistics on Johnny Padres. Another brilliant performance. He gave up one run in the first inning and then nothing but smoke rings the rest of the afternoon till the 8th. Bradley's got one there and that was it. And the Dodgers have won it 7 to 2 to take 2 out of 3 from Cincinnati. For the notes on Johnny Padres and also the statistics and the to wrap it up, here's Jerry.

Okay, Vinnie. For Johnny, his sixth consecutive complete game road victory, allowing a total of three runs in 54 innings. And today, Johnny did it by allowing no walks. He struck out three and kept the base hits well, scattered the totals for the Dodgers, seven runs, nine hits, no errors and five left on. And for Cincinnati, two runs, nine hits, one error and six left on. On. So at Cincinnati, the Dodgers lost an 11 inning opener 6 to 5, then bounced back yesterday to win 5 to 3. And today, 7 to 2,
