May I help you?

Byram Somme
Yes. I want something to relieve my child's cough.
- [02:47]
Pharmacist
My family takes Thorexin, the guided cough medicine.

Byram Somme
Guided? What do you mean?
- [02:52]
Pharmacist
Well, Thorexin is guided right to the spot where coughing is controlled, the cough control center. You see, doctors know coughing is not controlled in the throat. Your throat merely follows orders from the cough control center, which sends the message and you cough. Now, ordinary cough syrups don't even touch the cough center. Until now, only cough medicines with narcotics could depress this cough center. But narcotics may leave undesirable side effects. Instead of narcotics, Thorexin contains demetorphan. Thorexin soothes your throat, then speeds through your bloodstream directly to the cough control center. Thorexin relieves coughing like aspirin relieves headaches fast sure safe for the whole family. So try Thorexin, the guided cough medicine.

The Umpires Bill Summers of the American League at home plate, Frank Dascoli of the National League at first base, Ed Hurley of the American League at second, Frank Sicore of the National League at third, the foul line Umpires Hal Dixon of the National League along the left field line and Johnny Rice of the American League along the right field foul line. Bob Shaw, who had a record of 186 during the regular season, is making his second series appearance. He started the second game, pitched brilliantly for 6 1/3 innings, having given up one home run to Charlie Neal and then with two outs in the seventh, you remember when Chuck Gasigian came in and delivered the dramatic pinch hit homer and then the Los Angeles Dodgers got Bob Shaw out of there and eventually went on to win the ball game 4 to 3. Bob Shaw, who won 18 and lost six during the regular season, led the American league in percentage with 750 and his earned run average of 2.69 was second best in the league behind Hoyt Wilhelm. Sandy Koufax, who pitched two relief innings at Comiskey park and retired six men in a row, last started the game on Sept. 22 at San Francisco, pitched just 2/3 of an inning with no decision. He had a record of 8 and 6 during the regular season with an earned run average of 4.06. The 24 year old left hander has a blazing fastball and struck out 18 men and one regular season game here in the Coliseum, which of course tied the record set by Bob feller in 1938. That was on August 31st against the Giants right here and of course set a new National League record as well as tying Bob Feller's major league record. He has a great strikeout average. If his curveball is working, he has been troubled with wildness, but if his curveball is working, he generally is tremendously difficult to solve and particularly with a poor background for the hitters. All of the batters on both sides complain about it with a shirt sleeve crowd, they find it difficult to pick up the ball not only as batters. But as fielders looking into the open stands and the white shirts in that direction. The umpires say that they have had some problem in picking up the pitches as they come from the mound into the plate. The attendance today again is going to be a great one. You know, on Sunday we had 92,294, the largest crowd ever to see a World Series game. And the record was broken yesterday when 92560 saw the world Series game. The total attendance for the first four games, 892,300. Or rather the total receipts, $892,365.04. Represents the largest player pool in the history of the World series. Eclipsing the 1954 record of $881,763. The winner's share in 1954 was $11,147.90. And that represented the largest winner share of all time. Just what it will be this year, we do not know until it is announced by the commissioner's office. And right now, the Marine Color Guard will present the colors from the cruiser USS Los Angeles. Johnny Boudreau and his band will play the national anthem. And Johnny Raitt, the star of screen and television, will sing the national anthem. Now the Marine Color Guard has moved out toward right center field. They have presented the colors. And we'll have our national anthem. With over 90,000 people standing in the Los Angeles Coliseum. Unearly light what so proudly we hailed at the twilight last People whose broad stripes and bright stars through the peril for the ramparts we watched Were so gallantly stream and the rockets red glare the bombs bursting in air Came through Through the night that our flight was still there O say, does that star spangled banner yet wave for the land of the free and the home of the. Let's pause 10 seconds for station identification.

The Battery for today's game, the fifth game of the World Series. For the Chicago White Sox, Bob Shaw and Sherman Lawler. For the Los Angeles Dodgers, Sandy Koufax and Johnny Rosebarrow. And the Dodgers take the field. And so the question is, will the World Series be ended right here today. Or will we move back to Comiskey Park? And to give you a pretty good idea as we get ready to go, I move the Gillette microphone with a great deal of pleasure. To amiable, affable, able Byram sob Right you are, Mel Allen. Hello, everybody. Once again from the Coliseum. We're ready for the fifth game of The World Series. Chicago is still alive, but today's game is almost like sudden death. They know they have to win. And Sandy Koufax, tall left hander who makes his home back in Brooklyn, New York, is getting ready to go. He did work two fine relief innings recently in Chicago. When he's hot, he's one of the toughest left handers to beat. Once in a while he runs into control trouble, but he has a blazing fastball. He's a bachelor. He's only 23 years old. He has never pitched in the minor leagues and he signed as a bonus baby with the Dodgers some years back. It's Koufax warming up now. This fellow throws mostly overhand usually. If he's wild, he's wild high. And I have a feeling today that the White Sox are going to be looking over quite a few pitches. Louis Aparichio is coming in to lead off in the series. He's hitting a.294 and I did notice the last time up in batty practice, he hit one over the screen. Ready to go. Mel tells you we have a packed house. This could be the final game of the Series. And if Chicago should win, of course we will start action again in Chicago. Here we go. The game is ready to go. Bill Summers says play ball. Here's Koufax into the wind up. And the left hander's first pitch is down the middle. A strike one call. Apariccio pushed back into the leadoff spot. And he'll be followed by Nellie Fox. Here is strike two right in there. Fastball. The White Sox have been scoring more runs and getting more hits. And yet they're down in this series three games to one. Curveball. Strike three. Call. What a way to start the ball game. Three consecutive strikes and Aparicio was looking one gone. Nelson Fox, who keeps this White Sox team together. He's hitting 4:12, 17 hits in the four games that have been played. And he's looked good in this series. He's been punching the ball to left field. Koufax draws. It's a pop up in the vicinity of shortstop. Mari Wills, making good use of the sunglasses, is positioned right and has it for the out. Two gone off the first four pitches. You can see that Colfax has his control. Outfielder Jimmy Landis now stepping up. Center fielder and right handed batter in the series, heading at.294. He's picked up five hits. Fastball is over. This fella hasn't thrown a ball that's missed the strike zone yet. Left hander Sandy Koufax. He's set. He cuts loose. Strike two is gone. They're roaring on every pitch. Now. The outfield is set up a shade to left on Landis. The infield is up a step or two. He's out swinging. He lost control of the back. Koufax didn't throw a pitch that missed the plate at all. How about that? No runs, no hit, nobody left. On completing a half inning of play, it's Chicago nothing and LA nothing. You know, reports have just reached me that the new Gillette adjustable razor is moving like never before. It was a sensational when it was first introduced, but now it's all but jumping off the retailer's counters. Now why is that? Why? Simply because this Gillette adjustable razor gives you the most comfortable shaves that you've ever had. And the results are the same whether you have a light beard, heavy beard, tender beard, no matter what combination, or you set the Gillette adjustable razor to your own skin and beard. And it's so easy. A turn of the micrometer dial on the handle lets you set the razor. This dial has nine different numbers, each indicating a different degree of edge exposure and angle. The lower numbers expose less blade edge. The higher numbers increase exposure. One piece convenient? You bet. Blade changing and cleaning are a snap. Priced at 195, the Gillette adjustable is sold on our guarantee of complete satisfaction or your money back. See it at a store near you.

Last half of the first inning, Jim Gilliam is leading off against 26 year older Bob Shaw. He pitched a tremendous game in Chicago last Friday for 6⅓ innings. He was leading by a score of 2 to 1. Suddenly his low breaking stuff was getting a bit higher and the home run ball finally knocked him out of the game. Gilliam is hitting at.125. A switch hitter takes strike one call. Batting left today, here's a real moneyball player, Junior Gilliam, and he can play several spots. Austin claims he's better at third. Shaw throws. There's a line drive hit. It's over the head of Fox in right center. Gilliam makes the long turn, but holds up with a single as Landis fields the ball. Third hit for Gilliam in the series. The people were wide eyed at the pitching of Koufax in that first inning. He only made seven pitches to retire the Sox. Here's Charlie Neal. This fella has been swinging a mighty bat in this series. Hitting at 3. 53, right hander. He swings and pops. One foul might be playable. Giving it Chase Phillips. Running is Apariccio and Louie has it. He turns. Here's Gilliam. He tags and goes to second. What tremendous action, even though Charlie Neal is out on a spectacular grab by Louis Aparichio, who must have run a half block to get that pop foul. He was out of position to turn in a hurry. And Gilliam, the ever alert base runner, has advanced to second base. You can talk about your daring tactics on the baselines, but it's pretty tough to beat the Dodgers. One of the reasons they won the National League pennant. They've got a runner in scoring position with one out. And here's Wally Moon, right fielder, hitting at.267 in this series. Shaw on the stretch. He delivers low and inside a ball one. Bob Shaw makes his home in Garden City, Long Island. He paved the way for his mom and dad to come out to California and see the Series. He's a very determined young man, I might add, and he knows the burden that he shoulders today. Inside a ball two and oh, no score. But the Dodgers here in the first inning with one out, have Gilliam at second base. Moon has delivered four hits in this Series. Two of them here and two at Chicago's Comiskey Park. It's pretty hard to tell how to play Moon. He just goes with the pitch. Shaw behind 2 and O low on outside, ball 3. Now Shaw realizes to be successful and he certainly was one of the finest in the American league. He won 18. He has to keep the ball down. Principally a fast sinker ball. Pitcher has an excellent slider. And he says, once in a while, when I get ahead, I'll try my curveball. He's behind now, though. Three and all. Strike call. A fast sinking pitch. Back at the Coliseum, another crowd that's expected to go better than 92,000. Who knows, it might even top yesterday's crowd. Fifth game of the World Series. Shaw into the stretch. The turn. Here's the pitch. There's a bouncing ball to the mound. Shaw grabs. He gets direction from Lawlor. He flips to first. He holds a runner at second and throws. Moon out. He knew that he had a base runner. He was perplexed there for a moment and I noticed that Lopez is coming out. The impact of that hot ground ball Lopez thought might have hit him in the chest. Shaw gave with it and I do believe the ball hit in the heel of the glove. He's okay, he says. And he threw Wally Moon out. Pitcher to first, two gone. And at the same time, he held Junior Gilliam at second base. Two out. Now notice this. Los Angeles lineup is the same that operated so successfully yesterday. And Norman Locker continues to hit in the cleanup spot. While Norm has not come up with as many hits as some of his teammates. He's been a wonder in the outfield defensively. And I do believe, according to some of the boys I talk with, it was his base running yesterday that helped get early win out of the ball game. It's Shaw pitching with Lawlor. Catching blocker is hitting 182 in the series. Young Shaw on the stretch. The right handed throws shrink. One call. No doubt. You can hear the booming voice of Bill Summers in the background today. It was Summers who operated in the first game last Thursday in Chicago. One of the best. Runner at second, two out, outside at long. 101. The observations out here now is it's not so much the screen, but it's the background that is affecting not only the hitter, but the fielder as well. Especially when it's a warm day as it is in Los Angeles today. Shirt sleeve, crowd, first inning and Walker the better. Bob Shaw draws the arm back, cuts loose swing and a miss. He went for a high pitch, 1 and 2. On deck. Yesterday's hero, Gil Hodges. The stretch. The Chicago right hander throws ground ball to the mound. Easy play for Shaw. Over to Klasiewski. And that's all for the Dodgers. First inning or runs. One hit, one left. Score competing one round of play. Chicago nothing. Los Angeles nothing. Just. Just twist that dial and you're all set with the adjustable razor by Gillette or Shade. Go easy, fast and clean. So try and see what we mean. Waiting now for Koufax to get loosened up here. To lead off, it will be Sherman Lawler. Lawler has been moved up in the lineup, taking the place of Ted Klosinski, who will come along next. And then Al Smith. Al Lopez commenting today, he says certainly we're not playing up to our capabilities. He said we have to play better if we're going to win any ball games. And certainly the White Sox did not win the American League pennant the way they've been playing the last couple of games. He is especially hurt over the way they're playing defensively and the way they haven't been able to get the runners across. Strike one called on Lawler. He's heading at 3:33 five hits in the series.

Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. And he put the Sox right back in contention yesterday with a home run with two mates aboard. It came in the seventh. He tops one to third base. Gilliam charges. He makes the pickup near the bag, wings it to first and five. Lawler is out. Fine play Junior Gilliam to Gil Hodges. Big boy Ted Klisiewski being announced. I know that all the Sock fans are hoping that Clue can take things in hand. He of course led them to an easy triumph in the first game of the series with a pair of home runs. Too low. Ball one. Now Clue will tell you Koufax is not as difficult as some of the left handers could be. He doesn't come around so much. Sidearm the pitch. Fastball. He sends one high and twisting toward left center. It's playable. Coming up is Locker. He makes it two down. Locker for the put out. Two down. Outfielder Al Smith, who has been moved over to right field today. Al hitting wise, doing okay defensively as well. He's batting at.357 right handed battery. Koufax is low with this pitch. It skids by Rosemaro. Ball one. Now once in a while, Koufax on his curveball. Pitching will miss the target like that. But usually he gets in a lot of trouble when his fastball is taking off and goes high. But so far he's looked terrific. He's retired the first five batters to come up. Fly ball to left field. An easy chance for Locker. He's waiting. And that's all for Smith. That's all for the White Sox. No runs, no hit and nobody left on score, completing one and a half. The White Sox nothing. Los Angeles nothing. Well, yesterday the Dodgers took the lead at four. Nothing. Chicago came back to tie it. And then Gil Hodges got the magic stroke that won the ball game 5 to 4. And here's another piece of news that's kicking up a lot of excitement all over the country. It's the news about Gillette's revolutionary new 195 adjustable racer. What a great achievement this is for. This razor has a micrometer dial on the handle that adjusts to nine different degrees of edge exposure and edge angle to fit your exact requirements. Revolve the color one way, exposure decreases, you turn it the other way, more edge is exposed, you get the edge that you want for the shades that you want. Clean, refreshing shades with that all out comfortable that is guaranteed. Yes, you must agree the Gillette adjustable razor gives you the finest shaves ever or your money will be refunded. Stop in at your nearby Gillette dealer, pick up the razor. It costs just $1.95. Complete with Gillette blue blade dispenser and travel. The popular Gil Hodges leads off. Gill hitting a 357 in the series. His picture was slapped all over the Los Angeles papers today. And with good reason. Bob Shaw getting ready to go. One thing about Shaw talking with him today, he is confident. He believes he's going to win. He throws fastball, it's over. Strike one. The Dodgers have won three in a row. Remember, in World Series competition, the Dodgers have never won four in a row. But you never know. Fly ball in the center. Not deep. Landis started back, he has to come up. But there's Fox and there's Aparicio. They collide and one of them has the ball. Louie has the ball now. That ball did tricks to all three. Landis started back and then realized it was going to be a short pop fly. And it is Louis Aparichio who has come up with the drag. Nobody's hurt, although Fox and Aparicio both fell. One gone. Outfielder Don demeter. He's been a surprise starter in this Series. Long, lean, right handed. Butter pops the foul out of play. Strike one. We're in the last half of the second inning, ladies and gentlemen, from the Coliseum in LA, no score in the fifth game of the World Series. Demeter is heading at 3. 33. He's picked up two hits, two singles yesterday. Shaw whips that right arm around, delivers. There's a tap ball to third base coming up fast. The pickup is by Phillips. The throw is perfect. Two gone, third to first. Catcher John Roseborough. Johnny is hitting at 143. But what a workhorse he's been handling this pitching staff. And is he proud of these youngsters like Larry Sherry and Sandy Koufax. He sends one foul up overhead. Strike one. You know, there are all kind of records for World Series play. Mel and I the other day were trying to find one on number of assists by a catcher and throwing runners out. I don't think we ever found it. But Roseboro picked off three White Sox in the game here the other day. Ground ball hit toward Ellie Fox. Three big hops. He's up. Fox to first. And that's the third out of the inning. Shaw looking tremendous in that second frame. No runs, no hits, nobody left on. And we've now come through two innings of play. It's Chicago nothing, the Dodgers nothing.

Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. John Bubba Phillips leaves off for the White Sox in the third inning. He continues to divide the duties with Bill Goodman. Bubba is hitting at.333. He has one hit in the series. Southpaw Sandy Colfax was ready to go, but Phillips breaks the tension by stepping out. Phillips one hit was at Comisky park last Friday. He doubled to left field. Here's a swing and a miss. Strike one. Phillips to be followed by McEnany and Fitcher Shaw. A long drive to left that's going to get to the screen. Locker turns and plays it on the rebound and they hold Phillips to a single. So the White Sox come up with their first hit of the ball game. If you followed the pattern, the Sox have been very, very Troublesome in the first inning and most of the games. Jim McEnany. Jim McEnany being announced. A young outfielder from right here In Los Angeles, 23 years old, right hander. He wears glasses. This fella has good power to right center field. And he is looking for his first World Series hit. Swinging. Strike one. Now, most of the times in situations like this, the Sox have been trying running tactics. Phillips fouls this one off out of play. Strike two. No score in the fifth game of the World Series. The pitching has simply been truly wonderful so far. Koufax against Shaw. The stretch are on a pop up. It's right out in front of the plate and coming down is first Baseman Gil Hodges. And he has it for the yard. That's all for McEnany. A fair ball. Usually the pitcher will give way either to the first baseman or the third baseman. Number 35 is Robert Shaw. You know, during the regular season, Nick Donovan didn't have one of his better years. And neither did Bill Pierce. But this fella certainly picked up the slack. He was right there behind. Early win, strike one. He's a right headed batter. And even though he was defeated his first time out in the World Series, he did come up with a base hit. He picked up a single to right field against Johnny Padres last Friday at Comiskey Park. One out, one on outside. 101. Now Gilliam is playing very shallow at third. Hodges is holding at the first base bag. Shaw stepping out and looks to third base coach Tony Cucinello. Don Gutteridge directing traffic at first. One on one. He bunts. It's along the first base side. Roseborough the pickup. Only one play. He goes to first. Charlie Neal covering. It's a sacrifice. Moving Phillips to second base. Shaw is out. Roseborough two. Neil covering two. Download. Aparicio. He was simply overpowered with fastball to the first inning by Sandy Koufax. Sandy takes more time on the stretch. He delivers a foul sent by batter Apariccio into the screen. Oh, and one. You all know the Sox are really up against it. They have to win to keep the World Series going. Should they win, there would be an open date tomorrow for traveling. And the next game would be coming up on Thursday. But we'll be telling you the full story later on. Inside and all one on one. Two minute gone. Phillips at second base. Lewis sends a ball to left field at the base head. Phillips is coming around third. They're going to hold him as Locker released the ball. Aparici going to second and go. A tremendous play even though Aparicio single the left the runner. Phillips came around third. Cucinella elected to hold him up. The cutoff was beautifully done. And the throw into second base cut down. Louis Aparigio. He gets a single. He tried to go into second base. He is out. No runs, two hits and one man left on base. The score at the end of two and a half. Dodgers nothing, Chicago nothing. Well, our last day in Los Angeles and these fans will certainly remember the year of 1959. And we at Gillette will remember it too. Not only for the Series, but as the year that millions and millions of you men discovered the comfort of shaving with Gillette. 195 adjustable razor. Why the big difference in this new razor? Well, that's easy because with it you adjust the blade edge to match your personal combination of skin and beard. On the handle of the Gillette adjustable, there's a dial with nine different blade settings. Settings Turn it and you change the blade edge exposure and edge angle. There's a setting between 1 and 9 that will give you immaculate shades with the kind of comfort that you've always wanted. See this remarkable new shaving instrument tomorrow. The gillette Adjustable cost $1.95. Complete with Gillette blue blade dispenser and travel case. If you don't agree that it tops any razor that you've ever owned, Gillette will refund the entire purchase price. Now, the cutoff play. That cut down Aparichio was locker to Gilliam to Neil. And here we go with the first pitch. Coming down to the lead off better Mari Wills. And it is ball one. A leadoff man in the last half of the third inning. Shaw delivers ground ball hit toward Apariccio. He charges. He takes it on the half hop. He throws a bit off balance, but Wills the speedster is out. Wills has been absolutely sensational in this series. One away. Victor colfax. Takes the bat, handed over by Junior Gilliam. Colfax batting right handed, low outside, all white. The Sox have two hits. The Dodgers have one. Ground ball slowly hit toward Apariccio. He has it good, easy time to make the play. And he does. He throws. Koufax out. Wazewski for the put out. Two down. Jim Gilliam. What a play those Dodgers executed when they cut Apariccio down at second base. You can see the closeness of the screen here at the Coliseum certainly alters the pattern of play. Low ball one. Gilliam came up with a single in the first inning. He moved a second later, but that's as far as he could go. Shaw into that easy motion of his throws. Fly ball, hit foul. There goes the third baseman, Phillips. There goes Apariccio. And it drops. It's too far down. There's plenty of running room though, here on the third base side for pop fouls. But that one was a bit too far. It hits the turf and then bounces into the stands. A shirt sleeve crowd with a temperature reading in the 80s. There must be thousands and thousands of these coolie hats. Sun hats. Sunbonnets of every description. And how these people out here love their Dodgers. The count. One ball, two strikes. It is long. Two minigon. Charlie Neal in the on deck circle. Bob Shaw steps on the Mound throw. There's a ball hit out over first. It's going to drop a base hit to right field. And Gilliam is a two for two. A single to right. Charlie Neal coming up. This lean Texan from the oil well section of Texas is quite a hero out here. And he's the fellow that wrecked Bob Shaw in World Series game number two. Here we go. Inside. He pressed him back. Ball one. Shaw was talking about those home run balls that cost him dearly in Chicago. He said, I got the pitches up a little high. Especially the one that chuck a siege. And hit. Junior Gilliam at first base. The score is nothing to nothing. Each team has two hits. And here's a lob throw to first base. Gilliam back in plenty of time. Another move to first. Getting him back. There goes a runner. There's a swing and a drive to left. That ball is up. Up. It hits the screen. Here's the ball. And Gilliam is going to go to third. And hold up. It's a single. Now, ladies and gentlemen, you have to explain this. That was high on the screen. It missed a home run by a couple of feet, probably, and it turns out a single. But we're in the Coliseum, you understand? Gilliam made it to third base. Neo comes up with a hit. He's been murdered on Bob Shaw. That is the seventh hit for Charlie. Neil, L.A. has something going right now. Runners at first and third with two gone. Three individuals in the series now have seven Hips Lazewski, Nelly Fox, and now Charlie Neal. Here's Wally Moon. Ground ball over the mound. Can Fox get it? He has it. He touches second base. And they got a force out on Charlie Neal coming into second base. And that's the third out. So in the third for the Dodgers. No run, two hits and two left on base. And at the end of the third inning of play, the score, Chicago, nothing. The Dodgers, nothing. Look sharp, feel sharp, be sharp. And listen, mister, how you fix your blade? You have plenty. How are you fixed for blades? You better check. Please make sure you have enough. Cause a worn out blade makes Shaven mighty tough. How are you fixed for blades? Better. Look, Gillette. Blue blade, I mean. We pause now 30 seconds for station identification. Good. Can you grab one more thing?

Colbax got him on a pop up to Maury Wills in the first inning. The left. He throws pop foul up into the press row. One on one. On that last play, Fox wasn't going to take any chances. He just grabbed that ground ball and ran over to second base to get the final out. Force. Terrific ball game unfolding today. Sunny skies out in California and Mel Allen and by som sending it your way. Fly ball out of play. One ball and two strikes. Box is one of the most terrific competitors I've ever met. He's not the fastest. He doesn't have the fastest hands, but he's just one of the best. A wild pitch. That ball got away from Koufax. Two balls, two strikes. I have never seen in the years that I've watched Koufax work a more beautiful first inning than he pitched. He retired the White Sox with seven pitchers. He goes to work. Fox swings. And there's one. A base hit to right field, just out of the reach of Gil Hodges. So Foxy comes up with his eighth hit of the series. Now, look, here's a throw. Fox rounded first and what do you think? Roseborough had moved down to the bag and Little Fox was almost caught. Man, wouldn't that have been something? Well, both of these teams love to run. They're daring. They go all out on the baselines. And of course, it gives the fans a lot to talk about. Let's see what develops here. Land us a batter with nobody out. Too low. Delandis. Ball one. Jim Took us strike three in the first inning. Nelson Fox now has eight hits, more than anyone else in the series. A foul, one and one. I don't think they're not proud of that little fellow back in St. Thomas, Pennsylvania. Here, No score. The hits are all even. We are now in the top half of the fourth inning. And of course, the Socks are figuring out a way to win a ball game in this huge coliseum. One ball, one strike. Koufax wheels and thralls outside. Fastball is fouled off. One ball, two strikes. Landis started the World Series in a blaze of glory. Batting against Roger Craig last Thursday. The first three times at the plate he picked up singles. And in the first inning of the first game here in California. He made one of the greatest catches I've ever seen. On a ball that was looped into right center by Junior Gilliam. He's quite a ball player. Jim Landis sends another foul off to the right. He's going for those fast balls that are taking off high and away. It seems to be a little bit cooler today. Less smog. Another tremendous crowd. We've had sellouts in all three games. Bucks not getting too big a lead at first base. The count is one and two to Landis. High, way up high. Two balls, two strikes now. Colfax was eligible in the world series of 55 and 56. But he was not used. He was only a youngster. He was born and raised in Brooklyn. His father is a lawyer back that way. Sandy likes California, though. And I believe he's going to stay out here this coming winter.

Two. It's too long. All three. All of the hits in the ball game have been one baggers. There's a ball to right center. It's going to find an open spot. Sox is going to go to third base. The pickup is made in right field by Wally Moon. It's a single and the White Sox are in business. Two men are on with nobody out. A line single by Jimmy Landis. Cam Lawler to be your batter now. Time is out. There goes the hurry up call to the bullpen. Number 35. I see Johnny Klipstein getting. Joe Becker is in charge of that Dodger bullpen. He's got a great gang of hard throwing pitchers down there. Believe it. Of course, the talk of this LA City is Larry Sherry. Here's Lawler. He hits a ball back to Neil. He runs to second for one, over to first two. But a run scores and the White Sox take the lead. Nellie Fox comes trotting in. Lawler has Bounced into a double play. Neal got ahold of that ball, touched second and released it in time to the first baseman, Gil Hodges. Levine is a right hander warming up down there along with Klipstein. Now, Waller does not get credit for an RBI for. He hit into a double play. But the White Sox lead one to nothing. 2 Minigon Mammoth Ted Klisiewski at the plate. First time around, he flied out to left, fly ball, left center, stays up there pretty high for Demeter. And he's under. He makes it. And that's the third out of the inning. One run on, two hits, nobody left on. And as we go into the last half of the fourth inning from the Coliseum, Chicago 1, the Dodgers, nothing. Sherm Lawler of Springfield, Missouri is one of the stars of this White Sox ball club. He got a home run to tie it yesterday. He just drove in the first run of the ball game. And he's their cleanup hitter. And you know, there isn't a better handler of pitchers anywhere than Sherm. And if I haven't mentioned it, he's one of Gillette's biggest boosters. What does he say? Well, here's what he says that Gillette adjustable tops. Anything that I've ever laid against my face for real shaving comfort. Now, there is more to be said than that. Because with the new Gillette adjustable superb shaving comfort is guaranteed every man, no matter what his combination of skin and beard. That's because you adjust it to match your own personal requirements. Yes, sir. There's a micrometer dial right on the handle with nine different settings. Turn it to the higher numbers, you expose more blade edge. Turn it the other way and you reduce exposure. You get exactly the right amount of blade edge and angle that you need. And that means clean, refreshing shades that last longer and what comfort you get. What does all of this comfort and convenience cost? Only $1.95 for Gillette adjustable razor blue blade dispenser and modern travel case with money back guaranteed by Gillette. If you are not completely satisf. One of the most amazing things to me out here is they bring bugles and trumpets and they start blowing away and they say charge. It's become a big item here with the Dodger fans. All right, Locker is leading off. Strike one call in the last half of the fourth inning. First time of the plate. Locker bounced weakly to the mound and Shaw tossed him out. Bob Shaw clips to the plate and it's a pop fly to left center field. Coming over is Jimmy Landis at Ameca

Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. And he has it. The left fielder moved out of the way. McEnany. One down. First. Soccer. Gil hodges. One to nothing is a score. Chicago leading in the fifth game of the World Series. Gill in his first trip to the fight. Too low. Ball one. Stan Williams is now throwing in the Dodger bullpen. There was a possibility of him starting today, but Alston went to Koufac. Hodges takes low outside two zero. Shaw. His last appearance worked. Six and two third innings against the starter. Ball club allowed eight hits and four runs. One out to an open. It's strike one. Call. Bob Shaw, a very personable young pitcher. There must have been a hundred writers at one time or other today interviewing him. And he was very cool and calm about it. He knows it's up to him to keep the White Sox in this thing. Dry. Ball will hit the right center. Landis is not going to get this one. It's way back. Hodges is going to dig for two, maybe more. Landis gets it. Here comes a relay. Hodges will make three. The throw is late. A triple. The right cutter. Yell. Hodges went to right center that time. A low line shot that hit the curb and rolled all the way to the cyclone fence. 400 and some feet away. It's a triple. And they hardly had a play on him at third base. And now the Dodgers in a position to tie it up or go ahead. That, I do believe is the first triple in the World Series of 59. Free base hit. Mel checks me on it. That's correct. And here's Don Demeter. The infield is up. Shaw goes to work low outside. A ball. Well, you can see the Importance of getting a triple out of that for now. The Dodgers, with a long fly ball, can tie the game up. Dimitter bounced out the third baseman Phillips in the second inning. Shaw into full motion, throws, hook. It's low and inside. He's behind now, two zero. Don Demeter, a big boy from Oklahoma City. And he's certainly going to be a star of the future. Future. Shaw studies, throws. The mound, cuts loose. Ground ball to the mound. Shaw has it. He holds Hodges. He throws the first late. He got him in time. He held that ball for so long. He had a feeling that Hodges was going to go anyway. But he finally released the ball in time to get Dimitter. And remember, Divitter is no slowpoke. Now. That's a very key play. And Shaw made it, although he held the ball, looked for Hodges, thought he held him, and then held up again. Nevertheless. Two minutes on now. Shaw has come up with three assists already in the game. For Gil Hodges, that is his eight World Series extra base hit. And yesterday, most of you know it was his home run that won the game, 5 to 4. The fifth World Series home run for Hodges. Time is out. Lawler wants to talk it over with Shaw on how to pitch to Roseborough. The Sox are moving their infield back now. Last half of the fourth inning, the White Sox lead one to nothing. They scored a run in the top half of the fourth inning. The Dodgers have Hodges at third. Two gone. And here's the pitch to Roseborough. Change up. Strike call. Roseborough beats on it. And that's the slowest pitch that Shaw has offered. But he got it over the point. Here's the pitch. Low curve, beautifully trapped by Lawler. Man, that could have spun away and the game would have been tied. That was a pitch breaking way down in front of the plate. And Lawler prepped the ball. Johnny Roseborough from Compton, California. He's only 26 years old. Change up. Swinging. Strike two. One ball, two strikes. That ball came up in the face of Roseborough like a big grapefruit. And he misses. 1 and 2. Into full motion. Robert Shaw delivers. Here's a five. Four on the left. Not very deep. Apariccio out. The lucky other end. It's Louis Apariccio for the out. That's the third out of the inning. And in the fourth for la, no runs. One hit. A triple by Hodges. And one man left off. Score at the end of four, the Dodgers, nothing. Chicago one. The following message is brought to you as a public service from July. You know, millions of Americans will make make use of our forest this year. Everyone who does is a potential fire bug.

First pitch coming down to Al Smith. Strike one. Call. He's a leadoff batter in the top half of the fifth inning. Koufax throws. He got him to go for an overhand curveball. Strike two. Colfax can be rough. He throws as hard as any left hander in baseball. Usually a very slow starter, but usually comes on strong in August and September. Here's the pitch he's struck him. Another breaking pitch. He missed it by a foot. Strikeout number three for Koufax. Third baseman Bubba Phillips. You know, this young man was quite a football player in his day. And Mississippi Southern. But the happiest thrill of his life is to be playing in this World Series. And he got himself a hip the last time. Up a single lap, White Sox lead one to nothing. High ball, wide. Outside high. A fastball, two and all. Both starting pitchers still in the ball game. One to nothing, Chicago. Phillips. Chunky gets well over the plate. Swings and misses. Two and one. Nobody on. One out inside. Law. 3 and 1. Can you grab one more thing?

VGW Group void where prohibited by law. 21 plus terms and conditions apply. The Dodgers have really bounced back. They were shellacked 11 to nothing, but they've won the last three. They're trying to clinch the World Series. The Sox are hoping to keep it alive. A swing for strike two. This fella has really got the pitches. Usually his fastball is from the letters up and his curve overhand. A real downer. He throws fastball, is hammered to short. Mari Wills bags it, throws. That's all for Phillips. Two gone short to first. One thing for sure, the personnel of the two teams in the World Series, we have lots of boys from around this Los Angeles area. And here's a young fellow that would really like to show the home folks. Jim McEnany. Jimmy Rivera wasn't hitting too well, so McEnany is in your lineup. He was out the first time up. All one, Jim. And a guard. Swings on a low pitch. He got a piece of it. Foul one and one. Two gone in the fifth and nobody odd. Koufax draws a high inside fastball. Now, ladies and gentlemen, remember, if the White Sox win today, tomorrow is a travel date and the series will resume at Comiskey Park. That'll be on Thursday and it will start at 1:45 Eastern Daylight Time. Ha. Inside. Ball three. The one run of the game came over in the fourth inning. Fox got a single to right. Landis got a single. Fox went to third and he scored while Lawlor was bouncing out in a double play. Koufax flips ball four. It's high and outside. A walk. That's the first one given up by Koufax, and that's the first one in the game. To give you some idea as to how the pitching is going, Bob Shaw, formerly with the Detroit Tigers. This fella has been around, but he certainly became a great big league pitcher in 1959. Shaw, foul. First base side. I might add the Commissioner of Baseball, Mr. Ford Frick, is sitting right over along that side. Every seat taken, Shaw takes high in inside. It's been announced that the attendance for Today's game is 92,706. This tops Sunday's crowd and it tops Monday's crowd. Over 277,000 to watch the three games in Los Angeles. Inside and high. A ball, two and one. And what a magnificent picture it is to see so many baseball fans watching a World Series game. Two on one, a runner on with two gone. Koufax throws right in there. A strike. Two, Two. Once again, Clem Lebine starts throwing in the bullpen. Here it is. He swung, he's up. He went for a high pitch. No runs, no hits. One man left. On. Well, we now go to the last half of the fifth inning and it's still White Sox 1, Los Angeles nothing. You know, you could pack the Coliseum over 160 times with the men who now have switched to those instant lather shaving creams. Yes, sir, there are over 15 million of them. And the one that's right up there with the leaders is Gillette Pomi. It's jet speed in action. And what convenience. You just press the Gillette Foamy nozzle and swish. You have billowy snow white lather right at your fingertips. Lather. So full bodied, a little goes a long, long way. And here's a gillette foamy extra K34, the antiseptic that kills harmful bacteria. How about giving foamy a try? Get the clean, clean feeling only a shaving cream shade can give. Gillette foamy cost 79 cents. And you get a choice of regular foamy or foamy with cool, refreshing menthol added. Choose the one that you prefer at a store near you. Now, ladies and gentlemen, it is an extreme delight and pleasure to bring you a great friend of mine, one I've known and admired for many years, and one I'm having a chance to share the World Series with one of the country's top sports reporters. I give you the voice of Mel Allen. Mel. Hello there, everybody. Thank you very much. Barham Sahm, Mari Wills hitting eighth in the order, leads off for the Dodgers in the last half of the fifth inning. Sandy Koufax. Schedule to follow. And then Jim Gilliam. Bob Shaw's pitch is a little high. Fast one ball, no strikes. White Sox leading one to nothing, their backs to the wall. Third baseman Bubba Phillips shortened up to third for the Fleet. Maury Wills. Shaw the right hander into the wind. Up in comes the pitch. Swung on, bounced towards second. Two big hops to Fox. Fox over to Klisiewski in time. And there's. Sandy Koufax, who grounded out to short in the third inning. Coming up, the bat. A touch of nostalgia in this series occurred when we watched Carl Erskine pitching batting practice. He's now dressed and standing behind Walter o', Malley, president of the Dodgers, in his box back at home plate. He set an all time World Series record, you know, for most strikeouts in a game. 14. Bob Shaw delivers and it's in there for a call. Strike to Koufax. That's right handed. Erskine was with the Dodgers this season, but having some arm trouble. He just up and quit. A man with great pride, feeling he can no longer help the club. Now the pitch to Kofax. Curveball. He holds up on. It's outside. One ball, one strike. He thought that if he left, it would make room for someone else who could help the club. Gotta respect a guy like that. One ball, one strike. Bob Shaw delivers and Koufax takes it low. Another breaking pitch and the count is two and one. Koufax hit 111 during the season, 6 to 54. The two one pitch. Swung on and missed. Strike two crowded him with a fastball. Two balls, two strikes, White Sox leading one to nothing. It's the last half of the fifth. Now. The two two pitch. Swung on and missed dot strike three. And Sandy Koufax goes down swinging. That's the first strikeout recorded by Bob Shaw. And here's Jim Gilliam, who's had two of the Dodgers four hits. Single to right center and single to right. It only had two hits during the Series until today. Switch hitter. Bats left handed against right handed pitching. Shaw to the wind. Up in comes the pitch. It's in there for a strike. Fastball just above the knees. Greg Mulavy coaching, down at first. Slaps his hands together, shouting words of encouragement. Now to Jim Gilliam. P.B. reese coaching at third. The outfield straightaway for Gilliam. Bob Shaw delivers. The left hand batter takes it inside belt high and the count is one and one. Jim McEnany in left field, Jim Landis in center, Al Smith in right. Bubba Phillips, third. Louis Aparicio short. Nelson Fox, second. Ted Klosewski, first base. Sherman Lawler catching and Bob Shaw pitching. The toughest challenge in his brief major league career. The 11 pitch to Gilliams. Swung on, fouled off. Behind the plate. One ball, two strikes on deck is Charlie Neal. Bill Summers gives a new ball to Sherm Lawler. Rubs it up a touch before tossing it out to Bob Shaw. This huge throng sitting back quietly for the moment, knowing the drama that's in the making. The Dodgers can end it all today. The White Sox battling to get it back to Comiskey Park. The 12 pitch swung on. A ground ball hit back through the middle into center field for the third straight hit for Gilliam. Landis up to the ball tossing back into Fox. And Jim Gilliam has three for three. That brings to the plate Charlie Neal, who fouled out in the first inning to apprehend Mauricio. In single to left from the third after narrowly missing a tremendous homer. Remember, he hit two at Comiskey Park. Pop shot of the stretch. Gilliam with the lead, two outs. There he goes. The pitch is high, the throw down is high and Gilliam is safe. He slides under the tag. The Dodgers continue to play their slashing running game. Bob Shaw threw a high fastball and Lawler's throw down to second was high. While it had Gilliam beaten. Fox had to bring it down. And in the time lost in bringing the ball down. Gilliam slid under the tag for a stolen base. That's his second steal in scoring position. The delivery inside. Deneal for ball two. Two balls, no strikes, one to nothing. White Sox. It's the last of the fifth. Charlie Neal hit both of his home runs off Bob SH. Shaw to the stretch. Here's the pitch. Swung on and missed. Strike one. Kept the ball low that time. Neal homer off Shaw in the fifth inning of the second game. And then it was his second homer in the seventh inning that knocked Shaw out after Bob had pitched tremendous ball to that point. The stretch. Gilliam leading away from second. A whirl off the mound to fluff by Bob Shaw. And the crowd roars. Force. It's no fog he can pluck. A throw to second. Gilliam with a good lead. The stretch. Here's the pitch to Neal. And it's low outside for ball three. Three and one. And on deck is Wally Mo. 92,706. Fans roaring. Not quite all of them. There are many White Sox fans here now. The pitch. Swung on and fouled off to the left of the plate. The curveball in tight. Full count. And remember, every Dodger run in this series has been scored with two out. Except for Gil Hodges game winning homer yesterday. Leading off the inning. Neil apparently cracked his bat as he swung that last pitch and hit it down on the handle. Gets a new club to swing. A full count now with two down the last of the fifth inning. Jim Gilliam a two out single. Stone second. Bob Shaw with a full count on Charlie Neal. Gets the sign from Sherman Lawler. Phillips deep guarding that third baseline. Aparicio over into the hole. Fox shades towards second. Gilliam has a good lead. Shaw now to the stretch. Gilliam widens the lead. Here's the payoff pitch. Charlie Neal swings and pops it up into the air. Nelson. Nelson. Cox backs up. Backs up some more. He's under it and has it for the out. And the side is retired. No runs, one hit, no errors and one man left on. And the score. At the end of five innings of play, the White Sox one, the Dodgers, nothing.

Aparicio licked to the third strike in the first inning and then single to left in the third. Right hand batter Jim Gilliam plays him in very close at third. Koufax pitches. Aparicio takes a strike. 1 and 1 the outfield straight away for Aparicio. Tony Cuccinello slapping his hands together down at third, encouraging Louie. In comes the pitch. Fastball is high and away. The count is two and one. We can hear Don Gutteridge's voice coaching down at first as he hollers, come on. Two and one. The count on. Louie Koufax swings to the wind, up around comes the left arm. The pitch. Swung on's a high pop foul over to the left of the plate. Gilliam gets over under it and then can't get it as the ball faded away from him. He overran it, actually, as he moved over toward the White Sox dugout. You'll remember that there's a tremendous amount of foul territory off third base as the huge Los Angeles Coliseum bellies around. There's not too much room off the first base foul line line. Looking up into the sun. Gilliam racing over. Rosebar came along too, and Gilliam sort of overran it and almost did a backflip trying to backhand the ball. A two. Two count on Aparicio. The wind up by Koufax. In comes the pitch, and it's swung on, looped over second into center. Demeter can't get it. Takes it on the first top, and it appears if he lost the ball momentarily. Louie holds it first. He started in, stopped, and then broke again. And this has happened to several of the outfielders on both sides. With this tremendous crowd and shirtsleeve crowd, it makes it difficult to see the ball. Whether you're batting or fielding or even umpiring. Puts a tremendous test on the eyes of all the players. Aparicio singles to center, Nelson Fox up. Action on the Dodger bullpen. A throw over to first. Kirsten Louie is back, Clem Lebine is throwing. And Johnny Klipstein. Now the pitch. It sails inside around the letters. One ball, no strikes. Nelson Fox popped to short and single to right leading off in the fourth inning. Went to third on land, is single to right center and score. Does Lawler hit into a double play? One to nothing. White Sox, sixth inning. Koufax to the stretch, checks Aparicio. The pitch is low and inside. Two balls, no strikes. Now Gil Hodges asks for time, walks over from first. Johnny Roseburg moves out from behind the plate, talking to Sandy Koufax. Nelly Fox, who's always up around the leaders in the American League and most hits for the season, either leading the lead league or up there with them. Has a total of eight hits in this series. And he's a leader in that department. Here's the pitch to Fox. He takes a strike, 2 and 1. Jim Gilliam shortened up at third. Maury Will shaded over towards second. Charlie Neal shaded over towards second. Koufax delivers now to Fox, who swings and fouls it off behind the plate. Up over the screen. A two, two count on Ellie. Jim Landis on deck. Sixth inning, fifth game of the World Series. The Dodgers lead in Games 3 to 1. The White Sox trying to keep the series alive, leading one to nothing in the sixth inning. Louis Aparicio on first base. Gil Hodges holding against him. Koufax to the stretch. Here's the 22 pitch. Swung on. It's a pop fly into short center. Demeter moves in under it and makes the catch. Aparicio retreats to first, one away, now coming to bat. Jim Landis, a strikeout victim in the first inning, who lined a single to right center in the fourth to set up the White Sox run. The right hand battery awaits the pitch from the left hander Sandy Koufax. Here it is, a high outside fastball. Ball one. Now we have a left hander starting to warm up in the Dodger bullpen, replacing Johnny Klipstein. Danny McDevitt. Here's the one nothing pitch, and it's high as Louis bluff the dash to second. That's and points in toward the plate, which is characteristic of him. He really bluffed the dash to second. We all thought he was going, and he suddenly stopped and went back, trying to worry Koufax. Two balls, no strikes. Outfield straight away for Landis. There's a move over to first base and Aparicio is back. Two balls, no strikes, one out, one on in the sixth inning. White Sox leading one to nothing. Left hander Sandy Koufax to the stretch. Aphorisia with the lead. The pitch into the plate and it's over for call. Strike. Fastball took just a little bit off of it. Landis had the take sign on, apparently. Takes another look now down at Tony Cucinello. Two balls, one strike. Landis can hit and run. I don't know whether they'll try it or not. Aparicio with the lead. Here's the pitch and it's in there. Strike two. A whistling fastball. Got the outside corner. Two balls, two strikes. Landis steps out of the batter's box for a moment. Gets a little dirt on his hands. The Dodgers strike out ace. Sandy Koufax has a 2, 2 count on Jim Landis to the stretch. Aparicio with the lead. Here's the pitch. And it's right over. Call. Strike three. Caught him looking number five for Koufax. Behind on the count. He burned three in there. And now Sherman Lawler, who grounded to third and bounced to second. Into a double play, outfield around to the left, playing Lawler to pull Koufax again to his stretch. In comes the pitch. Swung on, a ground ball hit to short. Wills up with it, flips over to Neil, forcing Aparicio. And the side is retired. No runs, one hit, no errors. And one left on. At the end of five and a half innings, the score is White Sox one, Dodgers nothing.

the last half of the sixth inning. Wally Moon, batting third in the order, will be followed by Norm Larker and Gil Hodges. The White Sox leading one to nothing. And you hear the crowd roar, as by some told you earlier, it has become standard procedure in the Coliseum for the blowing of the trumpets and the yell of charge, which comes from the Southern California rooting section, as the idea came from. We don't have the rooting section out here. Here's the pitch to Wally Moon. He swings at the first one, grounds it to second. Fox up with it, throws over to Klisiewski and Moon is retired. Wally Moon grounding out second or first. Fox to Kluzewski after having hit to the box and grounded to Fox previously. Norm Larker, another left hand hitter, hit to the box and fly dot to center. Young Bob Shaw of Garden City, Long island, trying to keep the White Sox hopes alive in this World Series. Into the wind, up around comes the right arm. The pitch. And it's in there for a called strike as Bill Summers goes up for the right hand. Summers, umpiring in his eighth World Series, is 27th in the major leagues. Outfield straight away, Bubba Phillips fairly short, shortened up at third. Bob Shaw delivers and Larker takes it. Strike call. Over the inside corner. Breaking pitch. Nothing in two. Joy's a good fastball. Slider sinker. Mixes in a curveball. Strapping right hander to the wind. Up delivers overhand curveball. Is swung on. Popped up into the air. In into medium right center. Landis is moving under it, makes the catch. And they're two away. Here's Gil Hodges coming up from our position, low behind home plate. The ball went straight up in the air. Had a little more carry than we immediately thought. More of a fly ball than a pop up. Gil Hodges popped to at Brew Mauricio in short center and then tripled to right center in the fourth inning. Right hand batter. Two men away in the last. The six showing to the wind. Up in comes the pitch. And it's over. Strike one. The 38th World Series game in which Gil Hodges has appeared. No balls, one strike. Here's Shaw's pitch. Hodges swings and lines one deep to left field. And it is up against the screen. Played off by McEnany. Throws quickly back there, Parisio. And Hodges is held to a single. And again we had to wait. That ball was only 2, 3ft short, I'd say, of going over the screen. A long single to left, as it were. Technically a short one, considering the fact that 3ft, 4 or so it had been over. Hodges lines a single off the screen in short left field. And here's Don Demeter, who grounded the third and hit to the box. Shot of the stretch. Hodges with the lead off first. The pitch to Demeter. Outside, ball one. Jill Hodges now has seven hits in the series. That was his 33rd World Series hit considering his World Series career overall. Shaw checks the runner. The pitch to Demeter. Swung on and fouled off to the left of the plate. 11 count on Don Demeter. Six hits off Shaw. Hodges moves off first. Here's the pitch. Demeter swings and grounds it towards short. Aparistio scoops it up, flips the fox, forcing Hodges at second base. And the side is retired. No runs, one hit, no errors and one left on at the end of the sixth inning. The score, White Sox one, Dodgers, nothing. Just twist that dial and you're all set with the adjustable razorfly Gillette horseshade. So easy, fast and clean. Go try it and see what we mean. We pause now 30 seconds for station identification.

Six inning totals. White Sox one run, five hits, no errors, three left on Dodgers. No run, six hits, no errors and six men left on. In the fourth inning, Fox and Landis singled. Fox moving to third, scoring on Lawler's double. Play ball. And now we're ready as we move into the seventh inning with Ted Kloszewski leading off. Sandy Koufax pitches a curveball over strike one. Good breaking curve. Smith, then Phillips to follow. Klisiewski fly to left and fly to center. It's the seventh inning. Koufax shakes off the sign, okays in the next one. Here comes the pitch. And it's a ball. He took a little bit off the fastball and it was just wide of the plate. One ball, one strike. Third baseman Jim Gilliam plays way over towards shortstop. The 11 delivery to Clew is swung on, looped over short in the left. Larker moves in under it and makes the catch. One away as Big Clue hit the opposite way. Trying to hit the screen now. Al Smith fly to left and struck out. One to nothing favor the White Sox in the seventh inning. Koufax into the white, lined up. Around comes the left arm. The pitch is low. Ball one. They give Smith plenty of room in right center. Larker and Demeter shaded well over toward the left field line. Wally Moon just a little bit toward right center. Gofax delivers to Smitty. Curveball over strike one one and. Seventh inning. Sandy Koufax all set to work. Here's the pitch to Al Smith. He swings and piles it back out of play into the stands. One ball and two strikes. The Chicago White Sox, appearing in their fourth World Series. They beat the Cubs in 1906, four games to two. The Giants in 1917, four games to two and lost Cincinnati 1919 in a nine game series. Five games to three. A one two pitch is a ball. Curb just missed two. Two balls, two strikes. Koufax to the wind. Up around comes the left arm. The curveball is swung on and grounded. Foul down the third baseline. Koufax struck out Smith in the fifth inning on curveballs in tight, on the handle. The Dodgers appearing in their 10th World Series having lost eight out of nine. They're well ahead in this one, three games to one. Now. The pitch. Swung on and missed. Strike three. Outed a fastball by six strikeouts for Sandy Koufax, who had the best strikeout average of any major major league starter in 1959. Had 173 and 153 innings. An average of better than 10 for 9 innings. His lifetime average a little better than 8 for 9 innings. Now Bubba Phillips single to left and grounded to short, right hand. Batter steps in. Koufax delivers to Phillips, who swings and foul it off to the left of the plate. Curveball in on the handle. When Koufax isn't wild, he's tough. And he hasn't been wild today. Southpaw delivers now to Bubba Phillips, who takes it inside. Almost was hit by the pitch as he started to stride into it. It was in too tight. One and one. The count. Again. The crowd settles down vocally, ready to roar. One ball. One strike. GoFax delivers now to Bubba Phillips, who swings and lifts a foul behind the plate, out of play. One ball. Two strike. Jim mcenany on deck. One, two. Count on Bubba Phillips. Little All America halfback at Mississippi Southern. His intercollegiate days and a severe crouch leaning over the plate. In comes the pitch. Fastball swung on, get up into the air into right center. Don Demeter goes over and makes and makes the catch. And he almost dropped the ball just as he caught it. He turned his body quickly and shook his head. The sun bothered him. No runs, no hits, no errors, no one left off. At the end of six and a half innings, the score is White Sox won, the Dodgers nothing. You know, no sport event in America generates as much excitement as a World Series. And no razor anywhere has made as big a hit as the new Gillette 195 adjustable. But just a few days after it was introduced, retailer after retailer was completely sold out. Even now, it's hard to keep up with the demand. What a remarkable shaving instrument it is. Imagine a razor. You can adjust to match your skin and beard exactly. A micrometer dial on the handle sets to nine different degrees of edge exposure and angle. Each exposure is not at the lower numbers, you expose less blade edge. As you dial to the higher numbers, you get more and more edge. This choice means you get the most comfortable shaves of your life. Fast clean shaves that last, and that's positively guaranteed or your money back. See the Gillette 195 adjustable first chance you get. It costs $1.95, complete with dispenser of Gillette blue blades and travel case. And the roar of the charge in the background as the Dodgers come to bat in the last half of the seventh inning. Johnny Roseboro hitting seventh in the order. Maury Wills on deck. Sandy Koufax scheduled to follow. But we have action in the Dodger bullpen. A quick glance, I believe it's Stan Williams by. But right now, here's Johnny Roseborough. Left hand batter Bob Shaw's pitch. Curve is in there for a call. Strike. A slow curve. Roseburg grounded to second and popped out to Aparicio. Bob Shaw turns around, says something to Fox. Outfield straight away, the right hander into the wind. Up in comes the pitch. Fastball is outside and the count is one and one. He got Rosebar out last time on nice change ups. Slow curves. One ball, one strike.

And the 1:1 pitch to Johnny Rose. Barrow change up is high inside. Ball 2. 2 balls, 1 strike. TV Reese coaching at third, slapping his hands together. Greg Malavy coaching down at first, whistling, slapping his hands together. The crowd starting to roar. Here's the 2:1 pitch to Johnny Roseboro. And it swung on and popped up into the air in the short left. Aparicio out, moving in. Jim McEnany. He's under it and he's got it. And there's one away. Maury Wills, who grounded short and grounded second, started up to the plate, turns and goes back to the dugout. And we'll see whether or not we'll have a pinch hitter for Maury Will. Chuck cassiejian. Chuck cassejian will hit for mari wills. Dramatically in the second game of the World Series off Bob Shaw with two down on the seventh inning and with the White Sox at that point leading 2 to 1, hit a 31 pitch for a home run into the left center field stands at Comiskey Park. Only the seventh man in the history of the World Series to achieve a pinch of homer. Former Stanford football player we first saw doing a Stanford game. Rose bowl right Hand batter. Here's the pitch and it's in there for a strike. Fastball 5 11, 200 pounder Walt Austin continues to play his hunches. Making his third appearance in the series as a pinch hitter. Sean delivers. The pitch is low enough away for a ball. Sean Homer struck out his two previous appearances. And on deck is Duke Snider, whose ailing knee has kept him out of action here in Los Angeles. Bob Shaw to the wind. Up in comes the pitch. And Deceigen swings and misses on a breaking pitch. One and two the count. Stan Williams will be the new Dodger pitcher. He's warming up. One down, a siege and hitting for Wills. And Snyder's on deck to hit for Koufax. Last of the seventh. White Sox trying to hold on to a one nothing lead. In comes the pitch and it's low outside into the dirt. A two two count on ace. Tension everywhere. Dodgers aiming to wrap it up. The White Sox seeking to keep it alive and send the Series back to Chicago. Now the 22 pitch on its way to the right hand batter. And it's low outside for ball three. Bob Shaw working extra carefully. A full count now in a sieging. Three balls, two strikes. Shaw swings to the wind. Up around comes the right arm. The payoff pitch. Isijan takes it low. Ball four. And he's aboard. And that's the first base on balls given up by Bow Shaw. And we're going to have a runner for a season. While Duke Snyder comes up to hit for Sandy Koufax. Don Zimmer. Don Zimmer going into run for a siegen. And Duke Snyder steps up to bat for Sandy koufax. Snyder has 1 for 6 in the first two games. Shaw's pitch to the Duke. It's low and inside. Ball one. Snyder appeared in the first two games in Chicago and ailing knee would not respond to treatment. And so he's had to sit out the two games here, but now appears as a pinch hitter. One away in the last loose Evan. Bob Shaw checks the runner. The pitch swung on. A ground ball hit to Aparicio. Over to Fox for one. Back on to first. It's safe at first base. Snyder limping down to first. Beats the relay from Fox. And so the Dodgers are still alive in the seventh inning as Snyder grounded to Aparicio. Zimmer helped bump Fox, of course, as he he attempted to pivot and he didn't get too much steam behind his throw. So it's a force out at second. Snyder on first base. And we'll Have a base runner for him. It'll be Johnny Padres. Johnny Padres will run for Snyder. Donovan and Pierce start to warm up in the bullpen for the White Sox as Jim Gilliam steps up. And he's had three for three. Single to right center. He's single to right. He's single to center. A switch hitter batting left handed against Bob Shaw. Two away in the last of the seven. Shaw's pitch is low. Ball one, a sinker. Stan Williams has finished warming up and is walking into the Dodger dugout from the bullpen along the right field line. Time called. For a moment, Jim Gilliam steps out of the batter's box. Somebody apparently hollering something out to Bill Summers. Now we're set to continue. Padras leads away from first, running for Snyder. They pitch to Gilliam. Curve is low on inside. Ball two. Two balls, no strike, and Charlie Neal is the on deck man. Bob Shaw now digs at the dirt out in front of the rubber. Outfield straight away. White Sox just narrowly missing the double play. And that could be a big play too. We'll see. Two balls, no strike, strikes. Rodris moves off first. Here's Shaw's pitch to Gilliam. It's in there. Fastball. Strike one. Two and one. In these tight games, the double play is a tremendous weapon. One to nothing favor the White Sox last the seven. Two outs. Contras off first. In comes the pick. Pitch. Gilliam swings and moves it down the left field line. And the ball is up against the screen for base hit. Padres stops at second. McEnany whips a throw into Aparicio. And Jim Gilliam has his fourth consecutive base hit. Batter now is Charlie Neal. Now Kimi Reese asks for time to run over to second base to talk to Johnny Padres. Gilliam, who'd had only 2 for 16 in this series until today, has gone 4 for 4. And here's Charlie Neal, who fouled the third single to left and popped out to second. Jerma Lawler goes out to talk to Bob Shaw. Secondary intelligence. The fourth straight single by Gilliam ties the World Series record for most one base hits in a game. 4. And now Al Lopez is coming out of the White Sox dugout to talk to Bill Summers. And let's see. He's going to make a defensive change, I believe. Now Smith in right field is moving over to left. Jim Rivera is going to go to right field and Jim McEnany will be coming out. While Donovan and Pierce warm up a defensive change. Al Smith is moving over to left to give the White Sox a Stronger throwing arm in left left field with the pull. Hitting Charlie Neal up. And Jim Rivera goes to right field. Rivera will hit eighth in the order in place of McEnany, who's out. Now to the drama. One to nothing, White Sox, seventh inning. Podras on second, Gilliam on first. Two outs. White Sox trying to stay alive in the series. The Dodgers trying to end it. Shot of the stretch. Here's the pitch to Charlie Neal. He swings and misses. Strike one. A sharp breaking pitch. And again your mind has to go back to the failure to make the double play in this inning on Olympic. Duke Snyder, who hit the ball to short. And now the stretch. And the two men lead away. And the pitch to Charlie Neal. And it's just inside for a ball. One and one the count. The same Charlie Neal who belted two homers off Bob Shaw in the second game of the Series. And the second one drove him to cover. And it was in the very same inning, the seventh. And there were two out. And the Dodgers were trailing by one run, just as they are now. Padras leads away from second, Gilliam from first. The stretch by Shaw. The pitch to Charlie Neal. And it's a wild pitch to get away from Lawler. Onto third goes Padras, and down to second goes Gilliam. Apparently. Apparently, Shaw and Lawler got crossed up. It was not a wild pitch in the sense of a pitch thrown over the head or out of reach or out of range. It was in tight for the hitter. And apparently Shaw misread Lawler's side. This is speculation on our part, but it was not a pitch that was out of range. In the normal acceptance or understanding of a wild pitch. Waller out to talk to Shaw. A two one count. We have not had word as to how the official scorer saw it. Either fastball or wild pitch. The official scorers are talking it over. In the meanwhile, there are two men in scoring position. Two outs. Here's the two one pitch to Charlie Neal. And it is high for ball three. Three and one. And with Crown, he's Rory. Johnny Padres running for Snyder on third. Jim Gilliam on second. One to nothing. Favor of the White Sox. Last half of the seventh inning. Fifth game of the World Series. Shaw to the wind. Up around comes the right arm. The pitch to Neal. Swung on and fouled off to the right of the plate. Over to the Dodger dugout. And it's a full count. Three and two. And the on deck man is Wally Moon. Bob Jaw with a new ball now to work with. Standing on the hill. Pulls up the visor of his cap. Padres on third, Gilliam on second. Two down, three balls, two strikes on Charlie Neal. The runners widen their leads. The wind up the payoff pitch. And it swung on as the side to defense. Center shaking hard and the ball is caught by Rebecca Screen. A tremendous catch by Jim Rivera as he raced over the right field to a 400 foot point in deep rank center. An electrifying catch by Jim Rivera. No runs, one hit, no errors and two men left on and at the end of seven innings the score remains the one White Sox, one the Dodgers. Nothing.

void we're prohibited by law 21 terms and conditions apply. Jim Rivera coming to bat in the eighth inning. And so often a man makes a fine catch in the field. He's the first man to come to bat. Jim Landis with all his speed was angling on that ball in the right center when Jim Rivera, another speed merchant sort of loomed up almost from out of range and grabbed that ball near the 400 foot mark in deep right center. And now we move into the eighth inning, the White Sox leading one to nothing and Jim Rivera, who replaced Jim McEnany while Charlie Neal is at bat, swings and misses as Stan Williams is now the pitcher. We told you he was coming in. Williams a right hander. In comes the next pitch, fastball and it's inside and high for a ball. Stan Williams, one of the no wind up type pitchers a la Don Larson. For those of you who have followed World Series history and remember the no wind up that Don used in his perfect game and Bob Turley as well. Williams's pitch is a fastball high outside Williams in 35 appearances during the season. Won five and lost five. He's a good hard thrower, Tall right hander, six foot four. He delivers. It's swung on and fouled. Back to the screen. Two. Two count now, and Jim Rivera. Bob Shaw is the next scheduled batter. And then Louis Aparicio. The White Sox scored their run in the fourth inning on singles by Fox and Landis. Fox speeding to third, scoring, as Lawler bounced into a double. Stan Williams ready and the pitch. Look out. It's in tight to Rivera. Had to jump away from the plate. Full count now, 3 and 2. Williams throws a fine sinker. Ready for the payoff pitch. Here it is. And Jim Rivera takes high for ball four. Bob Shaw is due up. Sandy Koufax in seven innings, gave up five hits, walked one and struck out six. And gave up one run. A tremendous performance by the left hander. Walt Austin had to go for the pinch hitter. And now he's going for more action in his bullpen. Meantime, we're seeing what Al Lopez is going to do. And Bob Shaw is coming. Bob Shaw sacrificed and struck out. Lebine and McDevitt warming up now for the Dodgers. Jim Gilliam shortened up at third stretch by Williams. Checked to the runner. Throw over to first. And Rivera is back. Jim, pretty good base runner, good speed. Williams to his stretch. And the pitch. It's bunted and foul to the right of the plate. Gil Hodges now swings back around the mound, says something to Williams. One strike to count on Bob Shaw. Williams again to the stretch. Rivera with the lead off first. There goes Neal running over back of him. And the ball is bunted. And Hodges play is to first base. To Neal. To sacrifice Hodges. To Neal. We had to call the play because before the release of the pitch by the pitcher, Charlie Neal started running at top speed toward first base. And there's a pickoff play like that as the first baseman charges the plate. And sometimes a pitch out. And they fire down to first to the second baseman. Pick the runner off. But the ball was bunted. And Shaw sacrifices Rivera to second. Hodges to Neal. And the batter now is Louis Aparicio. Louis took a third strike. Single to left and single to center. Nelson Fox on deck. The eighth inning, White Sox leading one to nothing, battling valiantly to cling to the lead. It's a do or die situation for the White Sox. Stan Williams, pitch to Aparicio, is in there for a call. Strike. Stan Williams, 23 years, a native of Enfield, New Hampshire, makes his home in Los Angeles. Now 6 foot 4, weighs 225 pounds pitches to Aparicio, who swings and sends a little rower out towards second. Neal charges it up with it, flips to Hodges in time for the out as Rivera advances to third. Louis Aparicio swinging late on the changeup, started to take the pitch and then try to hit it to right. Fields down slowly to circle second. And here's Nelson Fox, who popped to short, single to right, scored the only run of the ball game and flied to center. Outfield toward left and center, left straightaway right. Lot of room in right center. Jim Gideon way in at third, Jim Rivera on third. Two outs now in the eighth inning. Stan Williams delivers to Fox, who takes it inside. Ball one. Started his wing and held off. Nelly with a big chew, poking his left cheek out. Chokes up on that bat. Williams ready. Here's the pitch to Fox. And it's high ball two. Two balls, no strike, strikes. Jim Landis is on deck. Don Zimmer and it's shortstop playing over near second. Here's the pitch and it's very high ball three. Don Zimmer having replaced Maury Wills as the seging hit for Wilger, will call. And Zimmer went in to run for a siegen. Three nothing. Count now on Fox. Rivera comes up the line, stops. The pitch is high ball four. And Fox walks. They don't want to give Foxy anything too good to hit at second. Pass issued by Williams. And now Wall Alston comes out of the bugout as Rosebud and Zimmer move to the mound to talk to the young right hander. McDevitt and Levine warming up. Jim Landis is the next White Sox batter. Austin talking it over. Nellie Fox with eight hits, leading all the players in total hits in the series. And Williams being very careful with him. And now Bill Summers walks out from behind home plate to see what Wall Austin's going to do. The conference is broken up. They're going to leave Williams in. Jim Rivera on third, Nelson Fox on first. Two men out, first down. Half the eighth inning. White Sox won, the Dodgers nothing. Jim Landis at bat. He struck out in the first inning. Single the right center in the fourth to set up the Dodger run. And took a third strike in the sixth. Williams to the stretch. The pitch to the right hand batter. Swung on. There's a liner in the center. Don Demner goes back, still going back, and makes the catch. And he almost lost the ball. And the sign is retired again. He lost the ball, but picked it up in time. No runs, no hits, no errors, and two men left off at the end of seven and a half innings. The score is White Sox one, the Dodgers nothing. Well, the winner's share of this series is going to be taken from a total of $892,365.04. The nice bonus these fellows are going to pick up. 60% of it to the winners, 40% to the losers. And yet every dollar of it couldn't buy you a shaving instrument that would deliver as much comfort as that remarkable new Gillette adjustable razor. Let me tell you why you adjust this razor to match your own personal shaving requirements. Your beard may be light or heavy, your skin tender or tough.

Last half of the eighth inning. Wally Moon batting third in the order. Norm Larker on deck and Gil Hodges to follow. One to nothing, White Sox. Bob Shaw to the wind, up around. Comes with the right arm. The pitch to Wally Moon. It's in there. Strike one. Moon bounced the box, grounded to second twice. Bubba Phillips shortened up at third. Shaw Again with a wind up. Around comes the right arm. Here's the pitch. Curveballs fouled, back to the screen. Strike two. Nothing in. Two. Outfield playing. Moon straight away. Hits tall fields. No balls, two strikes. Phillips is deepened somewhat. Not third. Bob Shaw pitches. Wally Moon swings and fouls it off again in behind the plate, into the stone stands. Count remains, no balls, two strikes. A tight, tense World Series game in Los Angeles. Once again, the two strike pitch on its way. Wally Moon swings and fouls. Another one off and it's over near the White Sox dugout and out of play. Count remains, no balls, two strikes. Sherman Lawler tossing the ball back to Shaw. Ball bounced away from him. Nelly Fox picks it up and then rolls it back into the plate. When Bill Summers asked to look it over and tosses it out. Puts a new ball in play. 92,706 fans moving to the edges of their respective chairs here in the Los Angeles Coliseum. Last of the eighth inning. Again the two strike pitch on its way to Wally Moon. Swung on. There's a fly ball into center. Jim Landis moving in. And he loses the air in the sun. And there he goes. Moon to second. And he goes back, back to first. He lost the ball in the sun I told you about. Don Demer, who almost lost the last out in the first of the eighth inning. And here, a routine fly ball. Jim Landis was settling under it. And suddenly he went to his knees and the ball dropped. And it is scored as a base hit for Moon. Donovan and Pierce warming up. A tough break for Bob Jaw. A great break for the Dodgers. And here now is Norm Larker, who hits the box, flying to left center and to right center. Bob Shaw, a heroic figure, suffers a tough break. Here's the pitch to Larker. He takes it inside for a ball as he shortens up as if to bunt head. Phillips charging the plate. In a short, short series and in tight games, it only takes one little break to turn the tide. And now the Dodgers have a runner on first with nobody out. One to nothing. White Sox last half, the eighth inning. Norm marker at best. Shaw ready? Here's the pitch. The left hand batter. He started a bunt, held off. And the pitchers inside are. Let's see what they called it. And Bill Summers calls it a strike. Yes, it's a strike, he says. He pointed at it. And it's one and one of the White Sox bench. Ed Hurley out at second, signaled in two. One ball, one strike. Norm Martin, a great punter. Now the stretch and the pitch. And he takes it low and inside and the ball almost hit him. Ball two, two and one. Pounding hearts. And there's a lot of them. 92,706. And that does not include the working press, radio and television and their associates. Two balls, one strike. Moon leads away from first. Here's the pitch. And it's low. Inside for ball three. Three and one on the count now on Larker that time had the backcock ready to swing. Donovan and Pierce warming up. Three balls, one strike. Bob Shaw to the stretch. Wally Moon off first here. There he goes. The pitch is swung on and grounded foul. Down the first baseline. Strike two. Full count now on Larker. Jim Landis walking around out in center field. A forlorn figure at the moment, but as we've had occasion several times in this series here in the Coliseum, the outfielders are having trouble picking up the ball. With a tough background, a high sky and the sun. Full count now on Norm Marker. Nobody out. Moon leading away from first. The stretch and Shaw steps off the rubber. White Sox 1, Dodgers nothing. Dodgers leaving in games 3 to 1, trying to wrap up the series. White Sox trying to keep it alive. Shaw to the stretch. Moon of the lead. The pitch is swung on. Hit foul. Down the first baseline. Moon was not running. He waited till the ball was hit. And it was hit hard to foul down the first baseline. The count remains three and two on deck. Gil Hodges. Three balls, two strikes. Once again, the stretch by Shaw. Wally Moon leading away. There he goes. The pitch is swung on. Say a fly ball. And Rivera, shading his eyes from the socks, makes the catch tag up by Moon, but he does not go. The throw quickly goes into Aparicio. One away. And here's Gil Hodges coming up. And even on that fly ball, Jim Rivera, while they're using the sunglasses, still put his hands on up to shade his eyes. And we're wondering whether or not he might have been in trouble.

Wally Moon saw that he was getting onto the ball and raced back to first to tag up. Thinking to get Rivera napping just a little bit. But Jim fired that ball right on into second. Now here's Gil Hodges. The pitch. Low outside, ball one. Gil Hodges, who popped out to Aparicio in short center. Tripled to right center and single to left. Two for three. One on and one out. Wally Moon good baserunner, power at the plate. Bob Shaw sets, checks the runner. Here's the pitch. And it's in there for a strike in the cow is one and one. And the drama builds and heightens with every pitch. Bubba Phillips deep at third, guarding the line. Louis Aparicio shaded into the third base hole now. Kelly Fox four strides to the right of second. Kozewski holding against Moon, the outfield deep around to the left. Tremendous lot of room along the right field line if Hodges should poke an outside pitch. Now the stretch. Moon with the lead. Here's the delivery. Swung on. There's a drive deep to left field. And it is a foul ball. A foul ball as Gil Hodges belted one deep overly screen into the left field. And we had to wait for Al Dixon, the National League umpire, to give it the call. And now Al Lopez comes out of the dugout to the mound. Boy, did he tee off on that one. Gil Hodges, who hit the home run yesterday that broke the tie and won the game, almost did it again. It was in the eighth inning when he led off with a homer. And now Al Lopez talking to Shaw. Lawler out there, too. One ball, two strikes on Hodges. Al Lopez, a very shrewd manager who in two World Series and in nine games, has seen his team get the breaks only in one game. That was the first one in this series. One ball, two strikes. Wally Moon leads away from first. Here's the pitch to Hodges. Just outside. Ball two. Two two. Two balls, two strikes, one out. One on. White Sox one. Dodgers nothing. And it's the last of the eight. Don Demeter is on deck. Bob Shaw a great competitor, pitching his heart out into the stretch. Moon with a good lead off first. Here's the pitch to Hodges. Swung on. Bounce down to third. Foul. And the count remains 2 2. Two balls, two strikes. Wally Moon trots back to first. Tension broken momentarily. If anybody gets any further over to the end edges of their respective chairs and seats, they'll fall off of them, including us. Two balls, two strikes. Moon with the lead off. First one out. Shaw ready. Here's the pitch to Hodges. Swung on. There's A bouncer box, can't get it to single into center Moon round seconds, ready to third. Here's the throw. And he is safe at third. And Hodges goes to second. Gil Hodges crashes the single just to the right of second base. Just inches away from the outstretched glove of Nelly Fox. Just inches between a double play and a base hit. And Wally Moon raced up, just barely beating Jim Langus. Straight throw. And Hodges took second on the play. And now Pee Wee Reese runs up from third base to talk to Don Demeter. And while he's talking to him, Byram Somme. That ball that Hodges hit, well, hit a clean base hit. But Fox's glove couldn't have been inches away from it. Well, you're so right. Many of us thought he might get to the ball first. Quite a clutch hitter. The skill, Hodges. And now a real jam for Shaw. And let's see, Mal, what strategy dictates here in the 8th inning? One nothing. Chicago still leading Don Demeter due to bat. But Ron Fairley is coming out of the dugout, a left handed batter to hit for Don Demeter. Donovan and Pierce continue to heat up. Ron Fairley. Nothing for three in the series. At 238 during the regular season, appearing in 118 games. And now Al Lopez is coming out of the dugout. And it's going to be, I believe, Billy Pierce with Ron Fairley coming up to hit for Don Demeter. And so the Dodgers taking advantage of this break, starting the inning when Jim Landis lost, Wally Moons fly by in the sun. That forced Bob Shaw to leave the mound, Billy Pierce to come in a round of applause for an heroic figure, Bob Shaw. And as Billy Pierce comes to the mound, we pause now 30 seconds for station identification.

And Rip Rapulski is going to be set up to hit for Ron Fairley, who was to have hit for Don Demeter. Bob Shaw worked 7 1/3 innings, Giving up nine hits. He walked one man and struck out one. So far has not been charged with any runs, but is responsible, of course, for the two men aboard on second and third. Rip Rapalski, the right hand battery to win 53 games, batted.255. Johnny Rosebur is the next schedule batter and they're going to walk Rapulski with first base open. Rapulski is to get the intentional pass with first base open. With Moon on third and Hodges on second. Last of the eighth inning, one out and one to nothing. White Sox. Billy Pierce pitches the fourth Wideman now to Rip Kropolski. And here's Donnie Rosebarrow.

Here's where relief yesterday. Now wait a minute. Johnny Roseboro may not hit. And let's see who it'll be. Carl Perillo. Carl Perillo is coming up to hit for the Dodgers. Carl Perello, who singled in the seventh inning of the third game, drove in two runs. To put the Dodgers out in front with the score at that point tied. Nothing, nothing to help. And a pinch hitting roll to win two. Eight key games in the Dodgers fight for the pennant and got the key hit in the final playoff game. And Al Lopez now is walking out to the mound once more. And the wheels are turning here in the eighth inning. Al Lopez pulling out all stops, trying to keep the White Sox hopes alive. And Dick Donovan's coming in. The rules say that an incoming pitcher, unless he's injured, must pitch to one batter. Pierce did. He walked Rapulski. And Dick Donovan's coming in now with Pirillo coming up to hit for Roseboro. Hal Lopez is playing this one the way he has to play it, on the basis of there is no tomorrow if he can't win this one. And Dick Donovan comes on to pitch in the eighth inning with the bases loaded. And one out. And Carl Perillo to be the pinch hitter. Dick Donovan, who was so brilliant in the third game of the series when he went six and two thirds innings in blanking the Dodgers. But then had to leave the game after walking two men in the seventh inning with two out and one on to load the bases. And then it was that Pirillo singled off Staley, hitting a ball just out of the reach of Louis Aparicio that won the ball game. And Larry Sherry now gets out of the Dodger dugout and goes down to the bullpen. Well, it has been a long time since Gil Hodges singled and the wheels have been turning. Ball. Alston pulling out, all stops as well to try and wrap it up today. Dick Donovan still warming up. The White Sox scored in the fourth inning when Fox and Land is single. Fox racing to third, scoring as Lawler hit into a double play. Bob Shaw pitching magnificently. The victim of a bad break as the safe thinning began when Wally Moon's routine fly ball was lost in the sun by Jim Landis and it gave the Dodgers an opening. And after Locker flied to right, Gil Hodges single. Moon racing to third, outlegging to throw by Landis. And Hodges took second and then fairly came up to hit for Demeter. Pierce came in and Rapulski went in to hit for Fairley. And Pierce walking. Bases are loaded and Perillo's up to hit. Perot's burr and Donovan has replaced Pierce. Moon on third, Hodges on second, Rapulski on first. One out, last of the eighth inning. The wind up. The pitch to Carl Perillo, and it's low. Ball one. Carl perillo in his 38th World Series game. A great crutch hitter. Three men lead away. Here's the pitch, and it's in there for a strike. McCown is 1 and 1. Carl hit.290 this year. Appeared in 50 games. Bothered by a pulled muscle. He was injured not too long after the season began. Larry Sherry warming up now in the Dodger bullpen. Three men aboard here in the last of the eighth. And one out. Moon and Hodges and Rapulski lead away. Dick Donovan ready. Here's the pitch to Pirillo. Swings and pops it up in the air. Off to the right of the plate near the stands. I don't know whether Lawler can get it or not. Right at the screen. Hits the screen, he can't get it. There's not much room behind the plate. And the ball coming down just nicked the screen as Lawlor is there waiting for. And so Barillo is still alive. One ball, two strikes, and again just a matter of inches. And in this inning it's all been a matter of inches. As Landis just lost sight of the ball at the last fraction. Hodges base hit just out of reach of Nellie Fox move. Beating Landis throw to third just by inch. One ball, two strikes. Moon off third, Hodges off second, Rapulski off first. Big clue in close. Donovan gets his sign. Moon starts up the line. Three men lead away. The pitch to Perillo. Swung on. It's a pop up. And the infield fire rule is called. The batter's automatically out. Phillips makes the catch and the runners hold. And there are two away under the infield tie rule. Which says that with runners on first and second, or first, second and third with less than two out. As the batter hits a pop up, which in the judgment of the umpire and the plate umpire usually cause it can be handled by an infielder. The batter is automatically out. A rule designed to protect the baserunners. To keep the infielders from deliberately dropping the ball or letting it drop to start either a double or triple play. And now Don Zimmer comes to bat. Little Don Zimmer, courageous player, injured several times in his career. But a plucky ball player. Hitting on the season. Only 165. Right hand batter. Two down now in the last the eight. Moon on third and Hodges on second. And Rapulski on first. And Don Zimmer, right hand hitter at the plate. Dick Donovan's pitch to Zimmer. And it's in there for a call. Strike. And the drama builds on the last of the 8th in the Los Angeles Coliseum of 92,706. And again we say, as we have each day here. This is the largest crowd ever to see a World Series game. As the record has been broken each day and each succeeding day. One strike to count. Moon off third, Hodges off second, Rapulski off first. Donovan delivers and Zimmer swings and sends a fly ball to short left. Al Smith waiting for it. Runners running. And Smith fakes the catch for the out. And Dick Donovan turns in a tremendous bit of clutch pitching in the eighth inning. No run, two hits, no errors, and three men left on at the end of the eighth inning. The scores. White Sox won, the Dodgers, nothing. Just twist that dial and your roll tanks with the adjustable razor by Gillette Crochet. So easy, fast and clean. To try and see what I mean. Can you grab one more thing?

Joe Picnitano comes in to catch as we go to the ninth inning, replacing Johnny Rose. Barrow, for whom Carl Furillo batted, Stan Williams still doing the pitching, and as we check around, Norm Larker in left, Rip Ripolski is going to right field, Wally Moon has shifted over to center, Moon has gone to center, Demeter out and Rapulski in right field. For the White Sox in the ninth inning room. Sherm Lawler hitting fourth in the order, will be followed by Ted Kluzewski and Al Smith. Lawlor grounded to third, grounded to second into a double play and grounded to short. Nothing for three. Stan Williams, who replaced Koufax in the eighth inning, right hander delivers outside ball one. One ball, no strikes. Ninth inning, White Sox one, Dodgers nothing. Strapping right hander without the wind up pitches. It's fouled off to the right of the plate on a check swing. Strike one. One and one in the last half of the ninth inning. If you wish to look ahead, the pitcher is due up first and then Gilliam and Neal. One ball, one strike on Lawlor. Stan Williams delivers, Lawler swings and pops it up in the air. Coming back behind the plate. Kington Tado comes back toward the screen and the ball is on the screen and Lawlor has another chance. Chance One ball, two strikes. That last half of the eighth inning was one of the most dramatic certainly in World Series history. Considering that a victory for the Dodgers ends the series and how the wheels were turning with Al Lopez and Wall off going with wide open throttle. One ball, two strikes now on Lawler. Williams delivers and Sherman Lawler takes strike three call over the outside corner. First strikeout for Williams now Ted Klisiewski flying to left and center and left nothing for three. In a way, it's difficult to believe that this ball game could end one to nothing in this ballpark. And of course, it still may not. Here's the Pitch to Klasiewski and it's low inside. Ball one. Larry Sherry warming up. Williams pitches to Clew, swings and hits the ground ball to short. Actually it's gobbled up by Gilliam. The throw to first in time with Gilliam playing way over it short as they're over shifted on Kosiewski and Zimmer way over towards second. And Gilliam actually made the play, though the ball was hit in the shortstop area. Two down and Al Smith coming up, flying to left and struck out twice. One to nothing. White Sox ninth inning. Williams delivers to Al. Fast ball outside. Ball one. Joe Pignettano who replaced Roseborough back to the plate, thought that one might have been called a strike. One and nothing to count on. Al Smith. Now the delivery. Swung on and fouled off, went for a sinker pitch. One and one the count. Just trying to wonder whom the Dodgers might use for pinch hitter if they use one in the last of the night. With the pitcher due up first. We don't know just where Fig Natano is hitting the order at the. Actually, he might have been put in the ninth spot. Here's the pitch and it's inside for a ball. No, Williams is in the ninth spot. There will be the pitcher due up first. Two balls, one strike on Al Smith. Next delivery swung on, hit foul. Back to plate, out of play. Two balls, two strikes, A 2, 2 count on al sm. Williams ready and the delivery. And it's inside for ball three. Full count. Smitty steps out of the batter's box. The Dodgers already have used 18 men, White Sox 12. As we check quickly now the payoff pitch. Swung on, a ground ball hit to short. Zimmer up with it, tosses on to Hodges in time and the side is retired. No runs, no hits, no errors, no one left off and the score at the end of 8 1/2 innings of play. The White Sox won, the Dodgers nothing. And so we go to the last half of the ninth inning. 92,706. And they're standing up here as we get ready to go to the last of the 9th. Will the white Sox be able to hold up for that one nothing lead as Dick Donovan walks out to the mound. Will the Dodgers succeed in tying it it up or winning it in the last of the night with the world's championship at stake? If they win it, it's all over. And the immediate question, who will bat as we lead off here in the last of the night? Wal Austin already has used fairly and Rapulski and it's going to be Larry Sherry, who has been brilliant in this series. Tremendous relief pitching, hitting.219 on the season, will bat for Williams, Youngster of destiny in this series. Larry Sherry, who hit.219 on the season, 7 for 32, now walks back to the Dodger dugout. Snyder has Siegin Barillo, Fairling Rapulski always used. And Padres, who's pretty good hitting pitcher, was used as a pinch runner. So here's Larry Sherry leading off now in the last of the ninth, Dick Donovan, who pitched tremendous ball in the clutch of the bases loaded, one out in the eighth to retire the side. The right hander delivers. Larry Sherry swings and misses. Strike one. Jim Gilliam on deck and Charlie Neal the following. Stay with us. Hang in there. Dick Donovan leans in, looks for the sign, brings the arms up around the letters, whirls the body. Here's the pitch. It's swung onto the roller.

On the third baseline. Foul. Strike two. Nothing into the count. Larry Sherry walking down from first base, back to the plate. He's a big fellow, 6 foot 2, 192. No balls, two strikes. Dick Donovan ready. Here's the pitch on its way now to Larry Sherry. And it is swung on and hits the third. Phillips up with it, throws on to first base to clew in time. And that ball almost took a bad hop on Phillips. Phillips. And they're one away in the last of the ninth inning. And here's Jim Gilliam, who's at 4 for 4. He's single to right, center. He's single to right. He's single to center. And he's single to left. He's hit him everywhere today. He's sprayed four hits around the park switch hitter, batting left handed against Donovan. And Charlie Neal is on deck. And it's the last of the ninth inning. The White Sox trying to cling to the one nothing. Leads, lead. Hoping to get back in their own ballpark now. Donovan ready. And the pitch to Gilliam. And it's in there for a strike. Fastball. Donovan goes to the Rosenbag, taking no time now. Blows in his pitching hand, hitches up his trousers, tosses down the Rosinbag. Steps upon the rubber. Gilliam choking up on that bat just a little bit. Here's Donovan's delivery. And Gilliam swings and hits it. Foul. Back up, third out of play. Strike two. Nothing in two. Sherm Mahler gets a new ball from Bill Summers. Tosses it out to Dalvin. No balls. Two strikes. One out. Last of the ninth. The White Sox one, the Dodgers, nothing. What a ball game. Donovan working slowly, kicks at the dirt out in front of the rubber. Tosses the Rosenbach down again. Leans forward, gets the sign from Sherman Lawler. Gilliam guarding the plate. In comes the two strike pitch. And it's swung on. A ground ball hit out towards second. Fox up with it, throws to Kosciuski in time. And they're two away in the last half of the 9th inning. And here comes Charlie Neal. Neil fouled the third single to left. Pop to second and slide to center. Two outs in the last half of the ninth inning. The White Sox one, the Dodgers nothing. Loan and Staley warming up in the White Sox bullpen. Charlie Neal digs in a right hand hitter. And he'll be swinging, swinging for the first. Dick Donovan's pitch on its way. And Charlie Neal swings and bounds it slowly toward short Aphrodisia rough. The ball throws on to first in time. And the White Sox are alive as they win it one to nothing. On the brink of losing out in this World Series, they hang on with brilliant clutch pitching by Dick Donovan and hang on to win it one to nothing. And we go back to Chicago. The final, final score of the White Sox, one run, five hits, no errors. The Dodgers, no runs. Nine hits and no errors. In just a moment, we'll review the highlights of today's game for you.

Ladies and gentlemen, we've just seen one of the most pulsating and spine tingling baseball games. I guess it's ever been played in World Series competition. The eighth inning alone was worth the admission and the White Sox stay alive. The World Series in two days will resume at Kabiski Park. And look out, you never know the totals again. Chicago. One run, five hits, no error and five left on. No runs for the Dodgers. Nine hits, no errors and 11 left on. Bob Shaw will be the winner. He lost a game, you know, the second time around in the series. Billy Pierce and some tremendous stout hearted pitching by Donovan. The loser will be Sandy Koufax. Williams came on and finished it out. The one run of the game was scored by the Go Go Sox, who really came to life again today. In the fourth inning, Fox got a single. He went to third on a single by Landis. And then as Lawler was grounding out into a double play, Fox raced home with the only run of the game. We have to go back to the eighth inning though. Well, there is where the White Sox with their defense and great pitching and great leadership held the Los Angeles Dodgers. Wally Moon opened with a routine fly to center. But the ball, as it has all during the the Series in la was lost in this mass of shirts, most of them white. Landis lost the ball. It was ruled a single. Locker flied out to right, Rivera getting the ball. Then Hodges with a count at two. Two single to right field. Moon moved into third base. The throw was a bit late. Now the pressure was really on right here. Billy Pierce was called in and Demeter was taken out fairly, was brought on and he was lifted in favor of Rapulski. However, the strategy of the Sox dictated a walk. They put Rapulski on. Pierce was lifted and Donovan was called on. What a job he did. And of course the toast of la. Carl Furillo was brought out to hit. The first pitch was high to Carl. Bases loaded, one out and still protecting a one to nothing lead. The next pitch was fouled and catcher Lawler came within A foot and a half of getting it, but it hit the screen nevertheless. Donovan kept bearing down and he got Carl to pop out to third base. That took some of the pressure off. Then Zimmer stepped up. They got him on a fly ball into shallow left and that was a third out of the inning. Donovan was simply tremendous in the ninth inning. He got the next three in order. Larry Sherry, a pinch of Gilliam, who had racked up four consecutive hits. If Gilliam had been able to get another hit, it would have been a World Series record for five consecutive hits in a World Series game. So there's a story. The one run stood up and the stout hearted pitching of Donovan took care of LA in the 8th inning. One of the greatest games I guess we'll ever see. I think the last one to nothing game was in 1957, October 7th, when Burdett beat Whitey Ford in the fifth game of the World Series. And Milwaukee went on after that to win the World Series. Now it's LA three games, Chicago two games. And tomorrow is an open date. The people, even though the Dodgers lost, feel as though they've seen one of the greatest. That's it. One to nothing. The White Sox wanted Shaw the winner, Koufax the loser.

Hey, it's Cole Swindell. After I give everything I've got to land a perfect vocal, I usually take five before jumping into the next track. And I've learned exactly how to recharge in that time. Some folks grab coffee, I hit a quick good luck spin. Next thing you know, the break is just as fun as laying down the track. A better break makes for a better take. Need a break? Let's Chumba.
