Louis 12 the Rams and a 49ers just starting in Los Angeles Burt campaneris walk once yesterday scored a run when hitless these other four times up ball one and we said yesterday the tiger pitching staff has had a drill into them keep campaneris off the base of it if at all possible don't walk you walk in once yesterday nice core ball to and woody primer drops quickly behind him Fryman bothered with an arthritic elbow and he has had difficulty they tell me early in the ballgame he is pitching with some pain in that elbow and he's got to get in the groove goes mostly hard stuff briea nothing to Burt campaneris woody Fryman won four games washed in with the Phillies with the tiger he won 10 and lost 3 they could not have won their division without him three balls and no strikes to campaneris 3 & 1 Fryman with a good slider on deck batter Matty Alou Fryman has that fastball that will right away tale away from these right-handed hitters 3-1 pitch coming up ray into they're talking to duke sims before the game about Fryman has listened what's his best ass that he said he's a competitor Eve really battles you on that mouth brand too [Music] now we'll keep our eyes on campaneris he led the American League with 52 stolen bases six times he's captured the American League base stealing title now here's another good little table setter Matty Alou hit 314 with a Cardinals 281 with Oakland and you notice late in a year how clubs will go to the other league and pick up players to aid them in a pennant drive this man really helped Oakland they were short one good bat in the outfield the goal with Rudy and Jackson and Alou really fills the void in that batting order he is a professional hitter who hit three 20s last 20 games with the A's Fryman does not have a good move to first base he moves quickly to the plate however there goes the runner to strike the throw he's in there left-handed pitcher you see a looot bluffing trying to hide the ball from the catcher Simms got rid of the ball very quickly a little bit of a high throw to tailor covering the bag watch it from another angle cash holding him on I can see 10 are waiting as long as possible to make the break he just outran the ball now the Tigers are prepared for a bunt Rodriguez tightens up a third and Kash is shortened up at first the infield also as short and second comes in Bluff half an hour's back or so man-like campaneris as those infielders moving around at all times McAuliffe trying to sneak up behind him hold him close you'll be out of position ball duel ooh the outfield very shallow and playing him to the opposite field you see Northrop over in left-center look out Willie Horton sprouting that left field line one one fish like two we had ideas to bunt but didn't one ball two strikes even with two strikes on Alou those Detroit in theaters don't move back too far Rodriguez still playing about even with a bag of third [Music] all that running around those infielders are doing because of campaneras is taking just that fraction of a step or maybe two away from them being able to chase down the ball hit behind them or between them [Applause] these fans love it [Applause] nice position perfectly very important the way you place those infielders and outfielders and they really had a loo catalog who flies the horton shallow left the telecast presented by

book on Rudi is to throw him a lot of changeup sand off-speed stuff get him off stride which knowledge did well yesterday the Fryman doesn't have a really effective change of pace [Applause] campaneras keeps them occupied what other sports get a little man like campaneras terrorize you as he's doing right now drive 5 feet 10 waves 160 [Music] [Applause] the last day of the season when he discovered that Nelson of the Texas Rangers had taken the late in the American Lake base-stealing he asked to play went in as a pinch runner stole second and then stole third and picked up the two bases he needed to win this pay stealing title drill foul down the right-field line [Music] one strike to Joe Rudi one out a Benares a second no score and the last of the first inning Rudi hits to all fields Fryman is ahead of him nothing into well you know the one other man that I can think of in baseball the major leagues who has closed the stance as Rudi and that's Tito Puentes he's way away from home plate with that back foot no let's try to break balls inside on him yesterday trying to get him to pull the ball on the ground and the Sun is coming out for the first time today and overcast all day here the warm and muggy just missed that outside corner one ball two strikes campaneris really has Tony Taylor bouncing around in his second base position and Rudy of course hits in that direction very well 1 2 pitch 2 2 there goes campaneris they're too late on him he got a big job back big jump boy he stole on the pitcher watch it again there he goes Sims throwing over the head of the right-handed hitting Rudy what great speed he has and sometimes even when he doesn't get a good jump he will still outrun the ball to the bag I stole a second he stole him 30s on third with one out three and two to Joe Rudi infield now draws in playing in right on the edge of the grass Rudi could hit that fly ball to the outfield for you too and it's a basic [Applause] [Music] there's a case right there with that infield playing and instead of fact because of campaneris tuning the two bases a ball got through Rodriguez the way he moves to his left probably would have had a chance at getting the ball of saving the run had they been back that's why the Tigers say you have to keep campaneras off the base Reggie Jackson had two hips and five times up yesterday both singles for the box do 65 hitter for the year 25 homers 75 RBIs strike to him as Ryman fitting the sidearm stuff yo Rudy on first one out the A's leading one another but I'm curve on two the on deck batter as a right-hander Sal bando I wanted to count to Reggie Jackson think of Jackson you think about his power he's at two of the longest home runs I've ever seen one in Bloomington Minnesota the other at the all-star game in Detroit year before last this is a foul ball headed toward the box seats and out of play but Reggie Jackson is also an excellent base runner has a good throwing arm in the outfield he can run and he can feel he can beat you different ways beside his bat I think a lot of people and I think Jackson also was disappointed in this year this year what do you have 25 26 home runs he has the potential to be a 40 home run hitter driving 125 runs a year as much abilities almost anyone in baseball he lives now in Tempe Arizona he went to school at Arizona State was born in wine cot Pennsylvania goes for the bad fish and strikes out do down first strikeout go Fryman [Applause] Sal bando [Music] hitting 236 manda was kidding me yesterday about having an Italian breakfast for good luck but he stayed told me today dead he had eggs with pepperoni two out Joe Rudi at first one to nothing Oakland last of the first inning all the way bando drives in runs a low average of 236 he's still knocked in 78 run yesterday low let's tried to keep the ball inside on bando until men got on base in scoring position then he went away [Music] strike two to Sal bando [Music] [Music] it's a write-off the first foul no balls it's two strikes [Music] Kweli heartening left Jim Northrup and Center Al Kaline and rights Rodriguez the third McAuliffe the shortstop Taylor a second cache at first Fryman pitching Simms catching eddie brakeman out he's we understand he's having some slipped disc problems in his back and his looked like a pulled muscle yesterday when he led off with a double could have had a triple on it but this couldn't make it look like it had a pull muscle in his leg that the sciatic nerves been affected it tells me he's lost about 25% of the mobility in his left leg there's a numbness of tingling feeling which sounds like some kind of pressure in a sciatic nerve caused by a disc problem similar to what dick Greene had bill Melton had this year I could feel for him all back oh and to prime ins got a good fastball he's been throwing the ball almost five and Oh inside and high Bandos late swinging but he keeps following them off hanging in there hoody Fryman lives in ewing Kentucky born in Fleming County Kentucky [Music] that one's foul again he owns and operates the farm Mary's a farm boy he raises tobacco corn and Black Angus cattle [Music] he didn't turn professional until he was 25 years old he's 32 now one ball two strikes the A's are really making crime and work this sinning that's not very good I'm sure for that arthritic elbow he'd like to throw a few pitches if possible a one-two pitch he's got him [Applause] this track has editing for practice for sure we've been having these three game series you know in the first three years of the playoffs but nationally it's not going to do that for sure this year it'll be Gary Nolan against Nelson Briles tomorrow para right-handers and the Reds will be in her home park for at least the next two days they'll not go back to Pittsburgh the Reds really needed that one today Tony what an acquisition that was by Bob Howsam to get Tommy Hall from Minnesota we've got the wind today ball 1 the norm cash leading off in the second cash had a homer yesterday in three times hold him his fastball up again two and nothing cash had gone since August 13th without hitting a homer Joey slam one yesterday wound up the year hitting 259 with 22 homers 61 RBIs sends a ground ball to Epstein the first flips to Odum covering one away these days pictures are MOLLE calendar Jim hunter kenny holtzman John Odom vitae blue can all run they could hit they can fish they're all around athletes who aid themselves another way that's not just throwing the ball all right we like to welcome those fans that have been watching the San Diego Baltimore football game the final score San Diego one at 23 to 20 and you're here now on the top of the second inning and the American League playoff with a score Oakland one Detroit nothing the Tigers have one out nobody on and the batter is Willie Horton so welcome ball one the Willie Horton he's a coaster off to their rough a starting year they've not lost three games the Jets have lost twice New England has lost twice to the Miami Dolphins they have already a big lead in their division by beating a gest today doing nothing on deck is Ron Northrop the Dolphins are off to what you might call an accelerated start they've beat some pretty good teams to everything Kansas City the Vikings and the Jets all on the road one out nobody on Willie Horton wound up hitting 231 for the Tigers ground ball to short campaneras scoops fires and he's got him energy down turn a while ago you were speaking of the versatility of some of the members of the office aides pitching staff will hold up yesterday went into pinch run he went on to steal second base on his owner started to Epstein missed a bunt sign and dunked the little ball to short left feel that started that rally going to win the ballgame Jim Northrup v 261 eight homers 42 runs batted in 2 down Tigers have been hitting the ball on the ground so far there is that depth that overhand curve that he likes that makes him very effective against left-handed batters when a right-hander comes inside arm that left-hander gets a better look at the ball there's a flat curve to that's a changeup this high for that overhand curveball from a right-hander to a left-handed hitter is much more effective and Odum has it but the ballplayers call coming in over the top there it is granite do deep short campaneras throws no lots of time with an infield hit he's the first Tiger baserunner can't be playing about up the middle for Northrup watch him get this throw off quickly with a lot on it too late but he made a great effort trying to get Northrop Tony Taylor who's been platoon this year at second base 303 hitter with one homer 20 RBIs 36 years old born in Cuba lives now in Eden Pennsylvania his 15th year in the majors knows how to play the game very smart ball player strike to him Odom generally speaking will do most of the time or try to do what he did on that last pitch he shoots for that outside corner and low most of the time tries to throw that sinker out there get the ground ball one ball one strike to Tony Taylor the Oakland A's are leading the Tigers one to nothing we're in the top of the second inning two down for the Tigers they have Northrop at first pitching pattern we'll be outside outside as soon as he sees the right-handed hitters leaning over going for it he'll try and brush them back inside runner going the throw right into the tag goes north if he's out perfect throw by captured Gene Tenace dick green had the ball waiting for him here goes North Jeff Taylor tried to protect them it was almost the pitch out dick green making an exceptional play some play that was pretty courageous he could have gotten injured hanging in there to dig that ball out for the hard sliding Northrup but they got him the snow runs a hit and nobody left for the Tigers in a second and at the end of an inning and a half Oakland one Detroit nothing 26 homers 70 runs batted in ball one and he hit over 300 against left-handers a final mm-hmm he's going up there in the Northlands the Minnesota Vikings upset today by the st. Louis Cardinals 19 to 17 that's their third loss on deck Gene Tenace bears of tide Green Bay 17 all in the fourth quarter gray balls and no strikes to epsteen epsteen had two walks and two singles yesterday in five times he doesn't try and hit homeruns with the left-hander going just tries to meet the ball Brienne won yesterday's playoff games both national and American League the left-handers against left-handed pitchers were the hitting star Oliver and Stargell for the Pirates Epstein here for Oakland on base four times Jackson on three times first walk by what if Ryland what if Lyman is experiencing something new for him pitching for a winning ballclub in his six seasons in the majors prior to this year he was with the first division team only once that was in his first year 1966 with a Pirates finishing third Pyrus then traded him over to the Phillies tennis appearing very intently down to third base coach Irv Noren know if Dick Williams gonna try and bunt early there's Noren trying to move Epstein in the scoring position and then pinch-hit for green as he's done so often this year with the second baseman runner on first nobody out one to nothing Oakland ahead fastball is over for a strike bean tennis took the first coaching spot over Dave Duncan started the season as a regular catcher and tennis won the job at the end of the year five homers 32 RBIs with a 225 batting average [Music] one ball one strike epstein at first nobody out off-speed curveball one ball two strikes the tennis [Music] doing - he's throwing a lot of pitches here in these early innings now early in the ballgame he has trouble with his control because of the arthritic elbow he tells us and late in the ballgame he starts suffering a little bit more pain in that elbow throwing all the pitches as you mentioned it could come even sooner with that pain they blew that one by him dick Greene looked to the dugout expecting to be lifted for a pinch-hitter but they're going to let him bat some games late in the year the manager of the A's dipped with him used for second baseman in the game and every time a second baseman would come up he would pinch-hit for him to put a new second baseman in the field but yesterday he went with Kubiak a couple of times it is going with green the first time up today one out what he firing a struck out three greens made quite a comeback he had a spinal disc operation in the spring ball one Green before the back operation I don't know how he's swinging now on a pitch hi out over the plate could really drive it in a deep right-center that's where his power was that's a scared on-deck-circle when a second basement or they always give us sort of a pleading look over to the dugout I'll back yes he has been durable a pop out in the shallow right Kaline coming hard he's there he let up after he broke with a good start one away there is a superior defensive right fielder he started out as a left fielder and they moved him to Center plate Center remember the kid a year dude then they finally install him permanently in right field where he's been ever since Mike Epstein walked his first time and on base five times and six up in this series I asked him Tony today I said would you be glad to get the Tiger Stadium boys I like to hit that ballpark I've never seen a left-hander with power who didn't strike Epstein can also have that right-handed pitcher Joe Coleman going against him which I'm sure he's gonna like after Lola and now priming how's the back he's at home in this area he played football the University of California here Berkeley for three years first string fullback on the Cal football team baseball player and he played on the United States Olympic baseball team in 64 he signed a bonus contract with the Orioles ball one he's never lacked for confidence Fryman now beginning to shake that left arm of his and try and stretch that shoulder I know cursive he's beginning to feel more pain and then arthritic elbow thrown a lot of pitches one ball two strikes Epstein in the minor leagues stole the Orioles either trading or playing in the majors they accommodated him and traded him to the Senators the return traded him over here to the Oakland A's one ball two strikes do it too that's Gene Tenace the A's catcher he scheduled left behind Epstein one nothing Oakland last to the fourth inning well as private let's it go he can bring it [Music] five strikeouts for what he Fryman [Music] he's walked one and Gene Tenace F struck out swinging in a 2nd inning Fryman pitched the division clinching game last tuesday night in detroit against the Red Sox winning three to one he didn't finish he went seven and 2/3 innings checked cell back saved the wind Fryman has been imposing in his last eight starts winning seven and losing just one at the pitches just inside ball two to Gene Tenace two balls and no strikes the tennis - database is empty [Music] curb over doing watch they haven't had a lot of excitement in this game so far the things gathered momentum yesterday in the late innings brain ones and we ended up with a thriller in the opening game of the American League playoffs this tennis sewer the headfirst slide blocking the view of Rodriguez scored the winning run in the 11th inning and Kaline was giving the air rate one pitch changed up three and two it's interesting about that play in the 11th inning you know it's difficult for an official scorer to give an error to either Kaline or Rodriguez and I know some writers dick young for one has been an advocate of what they call a team error concept whereas neither player would have been given the air the team would have SMAC sit in the left-field Willie Horton comes on to pick it off three up some three down for the age of the last of the four at the end of four innings it is the ultimate one and the Detroit Tigers nothing long time no see spring the 68 to be exact I guess Annabelle's ready for her lover huh that's right and I got my guarantee right here I'm sure mr. grey most mufflers last two or three years yet every Midas muffler we install carries this guarantee if anything goes wrong even if it just wears out we'll put in a new one for only an installation charge not quite a Midas guarantee is good on any car made in America good for as long as you own your car guarantee mr. Creedy you're not gonna sell this car I'd never sell Annabelle z again boys at Midas we install mufflers for a living we have to do a better job you hear a lot of big figures thrown around around television they see that little window there in the screen that costs around $1,600 and it's installed too bright in the game for you televiewers three quarters of an inch thickness of quartz the glass replaces a polled Plexiglas where we used to use and that that's also an improved $10,000 lens that takes that shot through the new ports and glass window and it brightens everything up for you and we hope you are enjoying the game and here's a bright guy now moving in for the fifth inning mr. Tony Kubek Jimmy Northrup Tony Taylor aralia Rodriguez fouled off by Northrop Tony let me just lift this score and there's a halftime score from Los Angeles the Rams leading the 49ers 14 to 7 at halftime the only other pro football game going it's Oakland one Detroit nothing in the top of the fifth John Odom on the mound for the AIDS check swing fouled off strike two Tayler on deck for the Tigers Detroit scored just two runs and 15 innings in this series both of those of course on home runs won by cash one bike a line no balls two strikes no outs Jimmy Northrup leading off with the Tigers in the fifth breaking ball in the dirt 1 & 2 Northrup got an infield single in the second when campaneras reigns far to his right but couldn't throw him out at first base 1 & 2 pitch changeup breaking ball gets Northrup Jimmy going after a bad pitch in the dirt strikeout number one for Oldham and it brings up Tony Taylor playing second base in today's ball games as McAuliffe moved over to shortstop Eddie Brinkman with a problem that may be serious injury to a disc Tayler grounded out in the third the A's won the Tigers nothing little low for a ball playing tailor a shade toward right field grounded up the middle dick green playing up the middle throws him out at first base for out number two bring up array Leo Rodriguez those tiger bats were speaking with real authority in the last two weeks of the American League season but they've been quiet here in the American League playoffs surprisingly the two runs if they've gotten on home runs by cash and Kaline cash and a low inside fastball that probably was a ball a good pitch off hunter Kaline hit a good breaking ball going on the outside corner with two strikes off Riley fingers so the A's pitching staff so far has been very sharp two down Rodriguez at bat change up misses outside you know I think Kurt what would be a lot of help to Rodriguez at bat is if he tried to bunt or fake a bun a little more often the third baseman played deeply on him bando is right now a lot of those ground balls that might go by him are caught they've also been trying to get him to hit to right field more go the opposite way he has power when he hits the ball but he gets interrupted sometimes with his swing kind of pull everything one ball one strike with two down Hayes 1 they got a run in the first inning Detroit nothing one ball two strikes Fryman on deck for the Tigers [Music] bando a third for the a's campaneras in short green at second Epstein at first base tennis the catcher Rudi and left Jackson and center Alou in right changeup from the side grounded weakly to bando at third over Epstein for the third out no runs no hits no and I'm for the Tigers saw in the middle of the fifth inning of play here in Oakland it's open one Detroit nothing tomorrow night 8 o'clock Eastern Time here on NBC and Dick Williams now starts his move with his second baseman he's pinch-hitting for dick green to leadoff the last of the 5th in the number 8 spot George Hendrick will bat for him and in the top of the 6th inning will have a new defensive second baseman for the Oakland A's Tony George Hendrick John Odom and then Bert campaneris the leadoff batter to face woody Fryman here in the last of the fifth Hendrick for the season four home runs 15 RBIs with a 182 batting average he pinch it yesterday and grounded out one to nothing Oakland Fryman with a slider gets Hendrick another breaking ball chulo one and one Odom on deck for the A's - one inside Hendrik is a man who is pretty much sought after many other major league clubs especially in the American League has tremendous ability good speed power - of - is Hendrick fouls it off one of his problem they never let him get settled he's sitting back to the minor they bring him up again he's like he's got a roller coaster all the time it's a very relaxed hitter up at the plate that quick bat two balls two strikes with no outs in the last of the film [Music] you know Tony this fella Hendrick that his manager dick Williams was watched and never participated in high school sports either [Music] had a chance to see him play a couple of times this year and he's fun to watch runs well in the outfield long easy stride primer tries a changeup goes to 3 and 2 on Hendrick the A's with one run on four hits and no errors the Tigers no runs three hits and no errors George Hendrick 10 shitty for dick green here in the fifth breaking ball line for base hit right thigh the lunging Aurelio Rodriguez so the A's have the first man out of the fifth inning [Music] brings up John Odom was a pretty good hitter and a good Bunter this is a fourth time in five innings of the A's have their leadoff man get our chances are dick Williams will have Odom trying to fund Hendrick in the second base but as good a hitter as Odom is he's liable to switch and try and get him to hit the ball by the charging Rodriguez there's Williams or by the charging norm cash try and find a hole in that infield Hendrick on first last to the fifth no outs Odom the hitter he's gonna body takes it one a No Rodriguez and cash both know they cannot charge too quickly with Odom up there especially now that he's ahead of the pitcher Fryman one ball no strikes Williams may change try and get old on the slap it by him priming has already picked Alou off first base Odom fouls if the count goes to one ball in one strike irv noren getting a lot of signals from his third-base coaching box wouldn't surprise me right here quor'toth dick Williams didn't change let Odom slash away one and one the count with no outs Hendrick on first base he's going to bunt again Sims out fast no chance for a play at second but he does get on him at first base hendrik with good speed getting down in a second [Music] [Applause] the channel of does the job there it is now Sims pro that's Taylor covering it first the second baseman liaison a runner on second one out and half an era stuff and he's had to line drive base hit so far scored the only age run in the first inning when he singled up the middle and stole second stole third the infield was drawn in Rudy slashed one by between short and third to score the run one out in the last of the fifth with Hendrick down on second base Fryman pinching to campaneras he fouls it off for a strength [Music] Rodriguez at third playing about even with a bag got a watch Hendrick who may try and steal third-base also keep his eye peeled for a possible pun attempt by campaneris one strike pitch drive base hit Hendrick had a hold up to see what was going to go through the throw from Kaline an herb garden hose Hendrick up Hendrick could not get a jump off second base as he had to make sure the line drive base hit by campaneras was over the hand of taylor the second baseman and norm catch a good throw by kale i hit he's cut off man cash cut the ball off so campaneris on a throw to the plate wouldn't get down a second brings up Manny Lou and now a lot of action there's Chris Zachary the right-hander starting the warm-up currently for Detroit here comes the left-hander French Sherman so what are you priming to the Tigers in trouble with one down Hendrick on third campaneras on first Maddie Alou the hitter Allu flied out in the first fielder's choice in the third and then was caught stealing as Fryman head and picked off good speed on the base pass and at the plate the Tiger infield playing about halfway line drive base hit Hendrick box car kappa NASA study better fair faces Kayla gets the ball in the midfield so who drives in one number Cooper games bring up Joe Mooney with one down campaneris on third a loo on first base no Dean two for two in the ball game single in the first two driving around double in the third and these first three men in the eighth batting order and now had four six hips and they're getting on base up on top George Hendrick started eating off when he pinch-hit for Greene with a single to left field Oldham sacrificed him to second campaneras singled Hendrick moving the third a lucious drove in the run so it's Oakland to Detroit nothing here comes mark not now Tony he's trying to stall here I believe he wants to get this right-hander Zachery ready and getting in here to pitch to Rudy they haven't met too much time to loosen up and Sherman continues to throw along with Zachary Duke Sims stall around for a little while Nestor the whole plate umpire hurried it up now Martin out those you're all been lying shots it off Fryman in this inning and areas he wants the right-hander Chris Zachary so Billy Martin the Tigers manager is called for his right-hander Chris Zachary there's a break in the action here at Oakland Coliseum with a score the Oakland A's to the
