[Music] faceball 39th all-star game it's finishing shaped by these men comes to the Houston Astrodome today with the state of Texas adding something new to that position the first all-star game to be televised at night and the first one played indoor was fourth in Chicago in 1933 as the dream of the late arch Ward Ward editor of the Chicago Tribune the Houston's palatial 8th wonder of the world the all-star game has annually been the showcase of baseball's back with the starting lineup selected by the major leaguers themselves the National League leads the series with 20 victories the American League is 117 and there's been one time in the heart of Texas welcome to the 35th anniversary midseason baseball clappers drama Houston at the Astrodome NBC Sports presents the 1960 all-star

left everybody unconcerned in Houston because they knew if he played ball tonight under perfect conditions air conditioned theater company will have a standing-room crowd of 52,000 and they'll be watching to see if the American League and end a five-year domination of five-year winning streak of the National League the National League is the favorite based on recent history and a better less efficient staff that sandy will be telling you about and we have two mr0 starting to right-handers Don Drysdale of the Dodgers of a National League and Louie Tiant of the Indians in the American League will be the starting pitchers they have each throwing seven shutouts in the first half the season and TV this is a National League park and he's naturally cleared the ball played in here over the years since the Astrodome was built many of the American leaguers are seeing it for the first time you think this would be an advantage for the National League no wave shirts no way I went out with these fellas on the infield before the game with Brooks Robert for goal seek through and Killebrew and they say if a national league catch this ball off the astroturf we're professionals there's no reason why we shouldn't it and if the American League loses it won't be because the athletes are all right now of course in a short series or one game that's usually pitching that tells a story what about the pitching here tonight sandy well third I think in that department I think National League has the edge nothis they have the better pitching they are carrying one extra pitch to they have eight where the American League only has seven and other seven pitchers the American League has started on Sunday including Louie teon was during the game for the American League and the National League only has two v on Sunday one is Jerry Koosman official one batter the Tom Seaver who pitched one inning everybody else is well rested Don Drysdale started going with his normal three days rest

of the Tigers is in left field hitting fifth Killebrew of the twins at first base batting sixth free hand of the Tigers is catching batting seventh Robinson of the Orioles is batting eighth the third and Luis Tiant is 15 you'll go only two innings he works in two thirds innings on Sundays that his arm is tired so he's only gonna pitch two innings no starters over three innings by the way in the National League lineup Willie Mays and centerfield what is batting second in left field of the cargo McCovey of the Giants is hitting third at first base Aaron of the Braves of the cleanup man in right field fans over the trust is hitting fifth at search talons of the Reds is at second batting sixth Brody of the Mets batting seventh catching Kessinger of the Cubs of the shortstop batting eighth and Drysdale of the Dodgers on the mound with his warm-up session relative value more bodies loyal teammate here at Sandy Koufax third down 75 having a fine year he's got a great er at one point three seven and as I said it's just been a great year for as he set the all-time consecutive inning scoreless record this year Sam's got a good fastball sinking fastball quite a bit of him and a slider and a curveball but this year is that great control all right here we go Jim Fregosi of the Angels the first batter up eight home runs 31 RBIs he's been a pot we've got a 14 game batting streak he's here safely in 16 of his last 18 games just before the all-star break the one strike pitch by Drysdale is a third man inside one-on-one crews on deck and then Yastrzemski the outfield playing Fregosi straightaway Jim born in San Francisco lives now in Anaheim the home of the angel 26 years old there's a pop off to the right going over is Brody's a catcher and right into the camera get closer there one ball two strikes there's not much room here in foul territory behind the plate and in front of the dugout so this is a tough talk to hit homers in have been only 31 hormones get here in 45 games this year 340 Downey's blinds 392 left center right center 406 to straightaway center the one to delivery to forego see all back in the seat Drysdale has not only been a brilliant picture over the years within ideas but a durable one very seldom has that arm trouble doctor and his rotation time after time year after year the only man on the Badgers who would lift a team of Brooklyn silver that Fanny hit that outside corner missing shoe into to forego see nobody on nobody out and the two to delivery feel that there is no away from the horses in the second and as it stand up double off the game but we're going to see two different styles and pitching tonight Drysdale starting for national agency I'm starting for the American League ideal is very smooth as you notice and Tiana's we've saw a couple of weeks ago with type herky-jerky it's awesome all the position size Dale is very smooth all right right through the Minnesota Twins up adding 286 one homer 14 RBIs for Theon second nobody out I'm called make sure you ask for time across the gel dirt behind the plate gorillas the only rookie to start in the game last year so he's starting out two years in a row in his first three years the big league playing he was a pull hitter to right and he's open up there with his fan perfecto em ball one grads Dale you notice the side armor has always been wicked against right-handers how about left-handers left-handed batters against confounder Kirk Don used to have quite a bit of trouble with the left-handers but a few years ago he came up with a slider and tries to pitch it up and in on the left-handers a lot and he's been fairly successful with the left-handers with that fish and the fastball out away from him but before he had the platter they gave him a lot of trouble i na Drysdale Rock to a shaky start first man up trouble he's behind through doing nothing constant on the right side McCovey handles it easily and advancing the third is productive the American League is a run around third one out through bouncing outs of McCovey and here's Carl Yastrzemski who was a Player of the Year last year not quite having the season this year that he had last year but 30 homers 33 runs batted in in the outfield has just been waved deep it over to right been in a bad slump we've got 21 games madam homerun but in Sunday's doubleheader against the Quincy at a home run in each game at Fenway Park thanks to the Houston Astros the nice happy as a two million dollar scoreboard by the way you're going to be watching tonight for ghosting a third one out one strike to fry your premises [Music] something extra I will have children high fastball he's got the 50 and a whole fish guy all right well the runner-up man in the American League batting race to his teammate Ken Harrelson that's the shock of magog Allah overhead here in the dawn we have nine cameras going for you tonight dude slow motion machines we hope you enjoy a do strike fit right there was a slider in autumn that God has been so successful with against the left-hander's and he set him up with the chaise and threw him a high fastball I think he wanted that as his outfits there well a Long Island boy lives now in Linville Massachusetts started his college career Notre Dame graduated from Merrimack College in the Merrimack Valley no one to pitch to him Wow the outside pitch out of play so go see a third one out big Frank Howard's on deck the runaround third one down the American League threatening here there's power Drysdale has allowed no earned runs in his last five all-star game and it's our centerfield camera looking in now one ball two strikes the count the Yastrzemski breaking pitch - missing it washes right [Music] and you saw the starting lineups gonna do it just 56 feet tall weighs 185 he looks like a against Frank Howard and they came out and stood alongside him they're all asking for time we switch the left-field in the fourth inning all right Drysdale this your pets just got a feature the fast ball in the side honor [Music] empty last year the only player in the all-star game and a half three hips and that to to 115 any game in Anaheim as a National League One on base five times you had a couple of watts let's the MC backpedaling Santo wrapped with that runner still on sir fouled out to third baseman Sano now sit down for the American League and Frank powers 67 278 five looks like a toothpick attack and of course we went on the famous glory in May at 10 homers and six games and the fabulous with the sizes in our that is a gigantic man he's leading the majors in homer's right now at 25 [Music] Wow Gillette right guard the perfect personal family deodorant because nothing touches you but the spray itself so share the right guard or make

shorty I was having a great year he's 14 and 5 and me RA of 1.24 he throws just about everything and just about everywhere he throws over the top throw sidearm he throws 3/4 got a good fastball his curveball and slider he calls him to different pitches but his catchers keep saying they're pretty much the same he'll throw a hesitation pitch and he'll throw a slow curve every now and then and he wanna throw it from any angle fans study delivery especially way--just really a herky-jerky tricks and his motion gives the batter's a lot of trouble after the first off to our game as many of the nafta Lakers have never seen him before Willie Mays leading off to the sixth all-star game that he's been a leadoff batter there's the curve by Fiat I have given over straight overhand Greek border sidearm change speeds and throw that head and those legs and arms all over the line [Music] the late OAH leadoff batter and on-base [Applause] we're batting 316 has been above the 300 mark all year for the Cardinals five homers 37 runs batted in of the church hometown or Houston he lives now in st. Louis 30 years old Maison first nobody out no score last to the first the aren't making his move well I'm a pack ball gets away they don't miss a second [Music] [Applause] well he doesn't run two phases of custody his forties [Music] going he wants to here's brother like him showing what could happen he'll make you throw him out on the basic skirt he came up after the slide returned and faked like he was gonna go to third he trying to get Harmon to throw the ball faison second [Music] all one the Curt Flood Curt we have the same situation right now with foot after the runner on second with no one out and this fellow can handle it bad he'll try to go to right feeling bats well he made the third the same as the American League did servers outside doing nothing Louis Fiat was born in Havana Cuba lives on Mexico City his father was an outstanding left-hander in Cuba for many years and tiana suddenly brought them this year into a great picture [Music] the two nothing pitch to Curt Flood is like one doing wine Killebrew was charged with an error Christmas or George Killebrew and err on the throw to first base by P on which allowed Mays to go to second to borrow to the stretch Willie McCovey is the on deck batter he not working very deliberately 3 & 1 now he's behind flood Rossdale had given up a double got behind through 2 and nothing beyond given up single and error now he's behind flood 3 & 1 [Music] he got early in the year his four shutouts in a row just said of Major League strikeout records backing out 32 in two consecutive games 3 1 pitch fouled back way into first club Kurt I think TMI may be showing that he's a little tired these chrome few breaking balls and most of them have been inside to the right hand hitters which is usually a sure sign that the pitcher might be a little tired he doesn't have the strength in his arm to get the ball out of way eyes working now three into the Curt Flood Willie Mays at second nobody out after the first inning no score trying to put something extra on that fastball the strikeout pitchers got away from here I think he's got away a little bit but I think they got crossed up in their signs because free and never even went up after he looked like he was looking for something down low the ball just went right over his head wild pitch charged against the odds blood on with a baseball there Willie McCovey to 93 this year for the giant leaps in Angelique and homers with 20 and a National League in runs batted in with 53 strong left-handed pull hitter they playing deep and toward right runners on first and third nobody out bounty bar the kuru they go for one back to first DoublePlay and in the stores will he made no run batted in from a cover through door Fregosi the Killebrew the National League takes the lead one to nothing and here's Hank Aaron now with two down nobody on [Music] and here's a double-play back again fairly close at first Aaron didn't think he'd be voted on the team he was hitting only 236 from the balance game him all one doing but he's been hot he had seven hits in his last eight times it had to support this all-star break get his average up to 247 don't worry about him he'll be up there before the season's over he has the highest lifetime average of any active player lifetime batting average of 316 it was no strikes ball three Tiana's not sharp tonight the way we've seen him before he's behind doesn't have his sharp control three balls and no strikes Aaron go looking for that fat one three and 1/2 Hank Aaron well I've talked to Henry Aaron before the game about us and asked him is it any reason for him hitting 240 right now it says TV the only thing that I can think about Joe Torre hitting in back of me which we've talked about so often was out of the lineup and they were just pitching around me I started swinging at bad pitches got me in a slump but I think I'm alright now and Tiant throws three and one ball poor that's the second watch the team's giving up

the starters must go three innings the starters are selected by the players but the American League does not have a good defensive outfield Willie Horton in left Frank Howard and writer not noted for their outfield he says he's playing out of position although he has played center field before but he's normally a left fielder there the line shot to right Howard where the ball house is going for to

in slow motion you know flap that head around notice how he turned his back dirt he'll look back there but you'll notice in here that he picks up the plate before he throws the ball in fact quite a bit before he throws the ball so he's got a good idea of where he wants the ball to be he looks and I think that's just his attempt at a deceptive motion on Kessinger of the cups is the batter runner on second one out fouls it back strike one Kessinger 8252 he has no homer 18 RBIs yes endure the switch-hitter naturally now starting to warm up and warm up Juan Marichal Helms at second one out all

chapter to which the American League dominated they led 12 games to four after the 1949 game they had a complete edge over the National League of since then the National League has won 16 in the last 21 all-star game last American League win was at Chicago's Comiskey Park in 1962 all right we have run read now the Atlanta Braves on the pitch the leaf balloon has done in the left field Ron reads an

seen all year as a tremendous pitching year in the major leagues shut out after shutout spoiler inning strikeout record while sandy koufax to talk about this there's a lot of arguments going on here the two strike pitch by the way sandy they say it's the hitters they can't hit me more other fellas say no the pitching better than ever especially the young pitchers what do you think I think the young pitching and the newer newer ballparks have a lot to do with it I think years ago pitchers didn't get to the major leagues Solera 26.7 28 years old where today they're here when they're still throwing hard and know how to fish they get behind the hitters they throw the curveball he had Tom Seaver I guess is only 23 who had a great year last year he was 22 Carlton was just a young fellow also and these women know how to pitch before they get here and they're only 21 or 22 years old I want to pictures a changeup by Ron raiding pull the string this is what you're seeing now in young pitchers change of speeds slider curve balls behind three and one two and old there they're getting a outstanding coaching evidently and all through these farm systems with a team and while they're young they still have their hearts tough know that pretty good control the one two pitch foul back I think even some of your older pitchers not old but older talking to Bob Gibson last week he said that now he has more faith in his breaking ball the fact that he can get it over anytime he wants and even he's improving and he's not a kid anymore he's 32 years old here's the 1 2 pitch to Dave Johnson the crossfire deliveries inside ball two strike here Yastrzemski Don death it's one the nothing the National League leading in the top of the ninth the American League has one out nobody on Ron Reed to the Braves in the mouth right in there ten American leaguers are struck out tonight six in the last two of two thirds innings and now they're going to bring a left-hander on to pitch the history so there's a break in the action here at the acetone the score is the National League One and the American League nothing [Music] Four Tops in sports watch CBC television Jerry Koosman 24 years old from Appleton Minnesota the New York Mets 11 wins and four losses dinner not trying to get the final out of the game with his man and sipping his fencing the takes ball one shrimpie fouled

had look v at nowhere the American League go run three hits and [Music] so they asked the dumb and asked the lake wins that one the nothing right now let's go down to the playing field he me Reese and his guest the captain of a National League Willie Mays ok Thank You Kurt thank you very much and it's always a pleasure to see this fella had the opportunity to playing against it for a number of years Willie you would never seem to lose your enthusiasm what I think what I do see we are probably split but I don't want to lose in a game like this I think I'm playing against the best in the American League and I'm just thankful that I had a chance to play it star least in the all-star game I was sorry that Pete got it but always when I first came in as I got to keep it and she'll run but I hate you laughs about it but again it's always a pleasure the player came right through by talking about Pete Rose it's a pretty nice thing for this fella to come down at this all-star game a because gone Fitch in some place but he still wanted to come to game well I hear a lot of guys were gee I want those three days off but I don't think that's true Pee Wee I think when you get opportunity to play in a game like this you want to come and I guess be among the 25 guys we have here well me they're pitching especially in the all-star league in the all-star game why is it so strong you have any reason for it I think is that we don't we don't see the fish's uh enough you I think I got like Oh tonight I don't I didn't know what he's doing at that time he could use some he's out of there so I think it's the lack of I'm not seeing a picture over force over here I think the National League like this you play a series I guess a club you know just about what any pitching will do but in all second they are they're so quick that should be just all more easy that it be to that the pitchers know that they're gonna have to go to a twin is it go a little harder don't have to pace themselves I understand it can only go three and you might be right in there Willie here's our attic quite a long career any idea how much well you know I think my father is really good condition right now I I don't think I'm throwing up in at the matter that I'll be able to quit I'm not embarrassed myself out there hitting like I shouldn't when I was 40 years old but for who is but the guy that finished seven 38 years old and that even place I'm very thankful that I can go the pace I'm going with the type of life that I have Thank You Willie and I guarantee you pal you will never embarrass yourself thanks a lot okay Willie now then back up to Kurt Goudy and Sandy Koufax in the booth all right Thank You peewee for another nice job and this was the first one to nothing shutout in all-star history we had three previous shutouts and also both clubs set a new record for the fewest hits by both team eight in a game we had 20 strikeouts and a good fielding especially early in the game by the National League in field and of course the big factor was a national encrypting staff not walking a banner in the game I think that that's a big factor in effective they didn't give up many hits with a couple minimun on the base on balls maybe give up one run Tommy Helm's did a great job defensively as you said it's a pleasure to see the guy he we had on I don't like we said well he said to them do Diaz and never stop I think he's great I'll say one thing both managers try to get everybody in there yes they did they got everybody with two pitchers on the National League side team and one pitcher on the American League deal in 47 players in the game well I think it's great I think we got to mention the guys that didn't get in and bail for the American League and Bob Gibson for the National and woody Bremen alright and that's the story and thanks to you again sandy sandy koufax Pee Wee Reese and Curt Goudy here from the Astrodome once again the National League wins it one to
