1975 MLB All-Star Game (Milwaukee)

the following NBC sports program is brought to you in living color [Music] our show is brought to you by the BF Goodrich tire company BF Goodrich we are the other guys what you're looking at are some of the millions of votes for the players in tonight's all-star game being counted bio-computer here in new baseball world tonight we want to take a couple of minutes to talk about all-stars of yesterday and tomorrow I will examine an overlooked part of baseball history and thanks to an exclusive in-depth study you'll hear about and meet guys who became all-stars for reasons you may have know nothing about oh I see great wealth in your future you do may seem much successful an innovative company no kiddin actually tired thing is good B's tired I'd be a good dealership mine is yours you will be a respected businessman in your community believe it a blimp do you see me writing in the garbage blimp cuz I diggin what a blimp Ares 5 bucks 30 BF goodrich we're the other guys remember 1976 America's bicentennial year you have a part that baseball played has been completely overlooked some people say baseball 200 years ago well let's look at some of the evidence dug up by my impartial investigator let's start with Paul Revere now he could really take those riddles history books tell us that Paul makes me way with yelling the Redcoats are coming the Redcoats are coming wrong if Paul was going the Red Sox are coming Oh Red Sox are coming it was April and all was on his way to Fenway Park for the season opener another reading big fan was George Washington George's father wanted his hatchet back so he gave George a baseball bat but George dreamed of being a pitcher it was too bad that he flew his arm out throwing silver dollars across the Rappahannock River spring training in Florida was George's idea it hit him as soon as he got the valley port and did you know that George Washington didn't even want to be president until he found out that he could throw out the first ball of the season it was about this time that a sports writer coined the phrase Washington first in war first in peace and first franchise to move to Dallas now where was Ben Franklin when all this was going on in the dark that's where someone had to start night baseball he even invented the skull so there could be a hot stove league and eyeglasses so Ben jockeys would have something to needle the umpires about the women were right in there - Betsy Roz was working her fingers right to the bone making uniforms she used red white and blue which he had left over from another job and remember Patrick Henry you think catfish hunter wanted to be a free agent Patrick Henry said give me liberty or give me death of course he was backed up by the Marvin Miller of his day compain who's always talking about the rights of man and naturally the owners like King George assert they were upset over dissension some other big names come to mind how about John Hancock John was kind of the Kilroy of his day always signing his John Hancock so now we have autograph fans another big name was Benedict Arnold nobody stole signals like Big Ben Benedict Arnold left by yet he figured in a very first trade France gave America left Fayed and they got that corn tobacco and a general to be named later and don't forget the scouts the first counter report was turned in on the British Army the Scout reported that they were tough to beat at home not so tough on the road not some facts to get distorted by time what Thomas Jefferson really said was all men are created equal except knuckleball pitchers Jefferson was quite a fan he insisted on having the Declaration of Independence signed on July 3rd because he had box seats for the 4th of July doubleheader by now everybody knows about America's first and biggest doubleheader Lexington and Concord i'm joe gergiolla and that's the way it was wasn't it hi come on everyone miss my Tony is my baby it's a good boy for 10 years he is a BF goodrich deal oh it makes a nice living selling tires for 10 years I asked when I gonna take a ride in this blimp and he says nah first American Idol radio time with a BF goodrich I say oh that's a nice very nice then he says MA without the guys are more and more people are called an endeavor in the radial tire market and I say oh that's a nice to disagree mrs. MA today more and more people are buying Goodrich radials than ever before hey you know what I say when they turn you when I gotta take a ride on this a blimp never MA never it's alright I get airsick anyhow BF Goodrich we're the other guys remember in tonight's all-star game you'll see a lot of outstanding players you know that pretty much by the statistics but to me statistics never tell it to story one of the outstanding on deck batter is consistently an all-star on-deck batter is Joe Torre what does it take to be a good on deck batter well you gotta make first of all you got to be sure that you've got your equipment in good shape I get to the ballpark the first thing I do is check the seams of my pants because kneeling on your knee all the time that puts a lot of stress and strain on the underpants and you know the split is seen during the course of a ballgame to be awfully embarrassing well that's the the hidden part of it what about your equipment Hugh you have to make a choice you come down here and out you've got your kneeling pad which is all-important now you've got the pine tar rag which is right here now this pine tar dragged in particularly has a little bit too much on there so what I do is after I use the rag I mix it with some rosin spit on my hands a little bit just so it's not too sticky because if I only use the pine tar rag I have trouble dropping this bat when I when I hit the ball and your other decision is whether you want to use the leaded bet the weighted bat some guys hands aren't big enough to be able to hold both they weighted bat and the regular bat because when you're when you're young and you come up you see a lot of these rookies with what they tend to do Joe is they get a little flustered bases are loaded me to the next hitter and they tend some of them try to pull the doughnut off this way and as you can see it's it's literally impossible you've got to balance it off this way now I notice you're kneeling on your right knee are you a right knee on deck batter well yes I started my career as a right in the on deck batter and but to stay on one knee all the time if the hitter at the plate happens to fall off a lot of pitches you're linked to fall asleep and it can be a big trouble do you ever kneel on both knees I see some fellas doing well there is a reason for that as nothing to do it being on deck has a lot more to do with the pitcher who's pitching against them what they're doing is not waiting to hit but they're saying a little prayer what runs through your mind when the fellow who's up - right ahead of you hits a home run fear fear I'm scared to death what advice would you give to young players who really want to be good on deck batters here if you step out of the way I'll take a couple swings and try to explain what you know what a kid coming up should do now see if you notice when I took that swing I spotted somebody in the stands that I knew and you can either nod or give them a little hand hello or something like that do that for us if you spotted somebody sure sure and do it this way one of those numbers Joe Wayman Joe that's that's one thing you don't do in the on-deck-circle will watch the planes they're trying to break your concentration you got a really discipline yourself to stay down keep your head down if you're going to look up somewhere it's got to be in the stands or at a camera so when we go to a regular game or a World Series or like tonight at the all-star game are there certain players we should really be looking at you on deck circle well yeah I think so Joe Lou Brock for one that's the slowest you'll see him move all years is in the on-deck circle and Hank Aaron who the epitome of nervousness you see him kneeling on that one leg Bobby bonds get a chance to see him in the National League so many years now the people in the American League is starting to enjoy his performances in the on-deck circle Joe you really scouted them all are there any other players well Rod Carew for instance Joe he has a tendency to get a little lonely on deck and he needs a little counseling or something to talk to him and I know our Reggie Jackson he has a habit of checking the crowds when he gets on deck as I often do pitcher Lynn McLaughlin to me typifies a pitcher in the on-deck circle I think that's the primary reason the American League went to the designated hitter so that the pitchers didn't have to get in there Greg luzinski when you think of Greg you think of muscles you like to flex his muscles on deck and then Thurman Munson of course sir from the Yankees he you sort of copies will lose far as I'm concerned switch you yeah I mean are there any other players well baltar on my ballclub rusty Staub some reason or other he uses the pine - our rag but only in the dugout he has somebody throw it to him when they're on deck and I really don't know the reason Joe that he doesn't want anybody noises guitar Joe what changes would you like to see in baseball you know they've been making so many changes to help the hitters with the D H and the American League I think we're ready for the DoD be do DB the other designated on-deck batter you'd like to see that yes I I have a son and I've already I've already bought him a weighted bat and Pines our rag and a cushion because I think would make my heart proud to know one day he's in a major-league uniform kneeling in my footsteps [Laughter] what let's go up and on bacon anything a partner yeah sure can that's just what I'm waiting for Google nine your partner on the right look at which point anytime I want right no I don't think so saying you see Goodrich doesn't have a blend I think I'll be a lawyer BF goodrich we're the other guys remember as we salute baseball's unsung specialist the on deck batter 's the only thing left to say is let's go to the ballgame or even better let's go to the all-star game you our show has been brought to you by the BF Goodrich tire ugly BF Goodrich we're the other guys [Music] Brian Keith and John Mills star in the premiere of the zoo gang Wednesday at 9:00 8:00 central on our longest [Music] 20 years ago in 1955 the all-star game was held in Milwaukee

as NBC Sports presents the 1975 all-star game brought to you by your nearby dodge dealer we want you to see why a lot of people are saying a charger by the Gillette track two shaving system the closest thing to a perfect shave and by Sears Tire & Auto centers now featuring the Sarah's diner glass Guardsman radio hi everybody Curt Goudy with Joe Garagiola and Tony Kubek and welcome to baseball's 14 6 all-star game encourage you to talk about that game we played here in 1955 like tonight that game was motor with superstars in fact fixed up and went to the Hall of Fame and here is one I know you'll recognize right away they're splendid splintered Ted Williams 300 game-winner early wins 536 lifetime home runs Mickey Mantle seven-time nationally batting champion Stan the man Musial a 2.7 for lifetime earned on average whitey Ford and three-time American League Most Valuable Player Yogi Berra and there was another player in that 1955 all-star game who is also here tonight baseball's all-time homerun King Henry Aaron in fact the tonight's appearance he will tie Willie Mays and Stan Musial by appearing in 24 all-star games let's go back and take a look at a couple of highlights of that 1955 all-star game 20 years ago and in the very first inning left two men on the pitchers Robin Roberts Mickey Mantle stepped up and hit one of his famous tape measure homeruns to get the American League off to an early lead on base ahead of him a little Nelly Fox and number 9 Ted Williams the American League out in front three nothing the game went into extra innings as a 12 inning with a score tied at 5 all stand the man usual he knew it he knew it was all over he ends the game of the home run he's greeted at home plate by the rest of the National League team a final score the National League six the American League five Stan Musial and Mickey Mantle are here tonight if it named honorary captain first time without honorary captain usuals old teammate Joe Garagiola Mantle's old teammate Tony Kubek adabbo gold bucks to the captain's earlier standards big home run you hit 20 years ago you call that shot and you told yogi somebody's you walk up tell us about I told you oh yeah it's been a long day and we're all tired let's get out of here would you tell the guy he's on the thing well Goro sisters and the only one I said I leo excited when I for something like this yeah you said you were gonna hit it where was the pitch well it pictures right right my eyes I got a good look at it and got good wood on do you ever see a picture too didn't get a good look not really not really it's all gone right Stan okay you're the captain of this nationally club let me ask you about your club start with the catcher Johnny Bench Oh Greg Greg flurry good katar Steve carbohydrates yeah Steve is very very steady and you've got Joe Morgan a wonderful great all-around ballplayer and you've got concepción a short good arm and great defensive guy and you got Ron Cey at third base and he's good and steady goodness betty the outfield you got a like rose oh he's great leadoff man he'll get on those bases and you've got Lou Brock exciting ballplayer and good to have on our team and you got Jim Wynn Jim Vic are hidden we need some car so Jim Missy he'll give us a tip our and you're optimistic about this oh yeah it should be a great game we're looking forward to it makes that seem like 20 years ago since you were here for that all-star game in County Stadium no it doesn't Tony I remember that game a little bit I know I hit a home run in that game but I remember more than anything else Musial hitting that late inning a extra inning home run and I always felt like yogi told him what was coming assball right down the middle uh let's take a look as honorary captain of the American League's team of the lineup for this ballclub starting with first base Gene Tenace the Oakland A's I know he gets a lot of bases on balls he's a good man to have around because he can play any place you played against Rod Carew what about him Riker is led the league in four times I think hitting and he might do it again so he's got to be one of our best hitters in American League underrated I think the shortstop Bert campaneris from Oakland campaneris is real good all-around shortstop he can cover all the ground steal bases he can he can beat you a Yankee third baseman Greg Nettles one of my favorites of course I'm prejudiced to the Yankees you know Greg nettles could enter they win the game with a home run he's hit a lot of Homer's Thurman Munson to catcher another Yankee and another one of my favorites I think Munson is one of the best catchers we've ever had for the Yankees left fielder Rudy Rudy I've only seen in the World Series you know in the games that I've watched on TV and he looks like a winner to me to a man now now the Yankee outfield with a great tradition of Yankee center fielders Bobby Bonds got to be one of the most powerful leadoff man I've ever seen he's got 20 home runs and he could also win the game with a stolen base or a home run another man with pretty good power Reggie Jackson right I've always thought probably the the next superstar in American League probably Nicky thanks a lot and hope you handle the squad well off the bench I will thank your honor all right the pregame ceremonies are about to begin let's go down to

Aaron guy right here is vital blue who was 112 game two lost seven the last two starts this club hasn't exactly worn the cover off the ball even shut out he lost to Oakland to the nothing and the Baltimore Porter nothing 17 game winner last year looks like you'll surpass that record this year he's been the ace of the Oakland pitching staff although Ken Holtzman I was real lost six wins in a row the Oakland A's represented here tonight by one of the race pitchers vital blue the defending world champs and it was anybody could upstage vital blue if we Charlie Finley and is a three in cap cowboy kappa i think it was a 57 gallon hat that he had and given out orange of a day for hollister after that Thurman Munson behind the plate for the American League all-star team we asked her in months and any problems catching pitchers he has not seen before let's see what he has to say about vital blue and the rest of the staff you know fight a fighting mixes up the pitches real well tone you know but actually right now you know my mind really isn't too much in the all-star game my wife's back in Canton Ohio Diana and she she's expecting a baby anytime no no I just want to let her know you know I wish her luck and I just wish I could be there to be with him he said I didn't want to give anybody the impression and I'm not here to win it's about my mind is not others I better be on side of blue right now here's the rose leading up and take a look at a ball he throws hitting 319 a switch-hitter right through the box they're going to go hitter first half roses on he played in seven previous all-star games this telecast presented by authority of Major League Baseball intended solely for the private non-commercial use of our audience any publication reproduction retransmission or other use of the pictures descriptions and accounts of this game without the express written consent of the Commissioner of baseball is prohibited and Major League Baseball has the right of approval of the announcers for this event Lou Brock usually bats lead off for the Cardinals he's hitting number two in the American League lineup tonight just 314 this year his second start all-star game a ball to him he was a starting left fielder in the 67 game was played in three other games behind him will be little Joe Morgan founded foul so you wonder about the padding ordered you might not have rose hitting second and Brock leading off guys you wonder about it - I just wonder how much thought goes into it when you got you know what's it like if you like the plug in an AC or DC I guess I don't know can't go wrong where were you put up there a one-one delivery there's a fly ball in the left field coming on is Rudy he's got it blanket halfway his rose and we preached the first one rock goes to left-field a lot back of batting practice only dude we've got to hit the left field here's the main was position for it now coming up I think fellas is that about the best offensive year of almost anybody in baseball he leads in so many department stores close to the leadership he is second in batting 345 fourth in runs batted in a little man first in stolen bases in ASDA league with 40 and first in walks what more do you want him to do he maybe right now the finest all-around player of the game Phil Morgan and he pops it foul over toward the seats Racing Genk like get through this reg never there's a commercial promotion going on and see more sign off has the standards that they set up for baseball and right now I mean going back to all the records setting up standards Morgan is so far above the standards that he had to go back and recheck his that on-base percentage is extraordinary has been the first half a lot of walks and curve is high for a ball they flames great away with metals inside a third he forces the infield in Audion and it could slap it by egg and hit with power he'll ride the ball a lot into the right-field corner there the high fouls twisting into the seat run the count of one ball two strikes one out for the amass the lake deep Rose the first half of the first inning Tony remember in Montreal gene Mauch city's on-base percentage was 55% that was his address at first base 55 first base but right in a hurry couldn't going to leave blue checks his runner fastball laced in the center Bobby Bonds can't get a grounding his BA here comes the throw it's their little hook the bag of the sliding row and Jill Morgan goes down to second on the throw to third look at it again you get backed up nationally the first leaf Pete Rose knows that Fogg has been having trouble with his legs but Bobby got over on the short pop to centerfield very quickly made a good roll here it is again Joe Rose made a decision and I thought he was going to make it when he went in with his hands because that's a tough tag to make he went for the corner but it was right there a beautiful throw a good tag and a good call you can count on Pete to give you a thrill right off the bat cancer but we forget when he crashed in a pasta all-star game in extra innings in Cincinnati Johnny Bench he's only been up eight years he's only been elected to the all-star team eight times and getting to 93 19 homers 73 runs batted in soft curve is inside to him for a ball Morgan at second there are two outs the National League that two hits off by two blue here from the top of the first no score though the outfield deep of step toward left and that one's outside teller was all ready to follow the strike but then changing Pines started to come up with that right arm two balls no strikes the best Steve Garvey on deck at fast balls bounced foul 2 & 1 the Johnny Bench there is Garvey a write-in man last year who wound up as the most valuable player in the game he won the commissioners trophy Morgan will get a lead at second this vaccine number eight do away Lou taking back the out the infield is deacon stated forth their adventure is usually a pull hitter to left and he went after that fastball blue a little something extra on that one that one jumped the hardest he's thrown tonight right there I was there two balls two strikes bottle blue worked very hard to spring training I remember one of our opening games when the joke Sonia and I were down in Texas Sal banner Reggie Jackson the rest of the a said he'll have a tremendous year this year nobody worked harder and screen printing in he had he's determined for a 20-game season the 2 2 pitch he tried to let up got away from now is three into the bag I thought that pitch he calls the slurve you know that half curve half I'd have been slow curve kind of thing more of a pitcher now that he wasn't 71 when he came up with a hard draw girl there it is again bench just couldn't lay off the temptation with a high pitch three balls two strikes benches then put some on a ball come on I think that's kind of the glamour of this ballgame the all-star game this confrontation all night long was he between those great hitters with great pitchers ran to deliver a fastball a foul Ryu here's one of the highlights of the season Johnny bench's marriage in Cincinnati the longest wedding list in history of America including a president United States most doesn't show do a knee ball foul down the third baseline bench I think one of the most unusual men I've ever met in baseball he came up with and there it is right there you see it a natural personality boys super a collect he was 35 years old that they came in and friendly and sell the game likes people three and two count let-up pitch is popped up good pitch by by the blue campaneris is calling for in foul ground you have it retire at home run to hit one look at in the first half inning it's no score we did it before and we can do it again this Chanukah nationwide veil from Chrysler Corporation yeah all right you can get up to 300 hours cash back on new 1975 Plymouth dodges and full-size prizes and $200 back on Dustin value dodge dodge pickups and vans come on down to your participating dodge or Chrysler Plymouth dealers are there nationwide sale we did it before vigil it again I cheer for Rex please relax Rex foster man local take 27 fashion [Music] [Applause] [Music] good ball I'm pretty good fall out what do you think resting I'd like to see one more Rex you look like eight years of Gatorade Gatorade thirst quencher helps replace what your body is thirsty for give your body what it's thirsty more Gatorade feels like my eyes collect all the dust in Shea Stadium Sun wind and pollen get me too no wonder my eyes get busgang that's where I use mirroring to excuse my eyes and third I'm a fast marine to a name you can trust next to your eyes to su refresh and clear them up fast you're into like having another right arm you're into and then you can trust next to your eyes we ask Johnny Bench before the game about receiving the opposing pitches that he hits against all year what's it like here's my biggest concern whenever it comes to an all-star game I guess I know how many millions of people are watching and it's always a concern of mine is that I'm going to handle his breaking stuff how much his fastball there's my biggest concern is to try to get out again before material comes in I don't want to fire that knuckleball he's talking about Joe Niekro the Atlanta Braves he may be in there tonight too Phil Niekro Gary Royce 10 wins six losses 16 game winner last year is facing Bobby Bonds who now that American League uniform recent years in all-star games has been in the National at uniform this is his first starting here to previous all-star game DSS live deep fried back the road warning track has it worse out so that hurt that wins bullion a little bit from right field I thought that ball might go out it's not blowing too hard but maybe just enough to keep the ball in the ballpark he's got such a heavy bat and such a quick swing it to 37 inches 36 ounces that fat and talk to him before the game because of a leg injury said he was going to lay back which would force him to hit to the opposite field but he thought he'd have a pretty good cut at it and he certainly did that here's a man and handles a bat better than anybody in a major league right now Rod Carew fouled aback he's leading the majors with a 373 average he's won the last Free American League batting title or an all and here's the Profi he received the most votes by you fans across America he wanted going away Rod Carew over three million votes of the Minnesota Twins I thought he could fund he could be top hit he can spray line drives all over an issue he's hitting more home runs he's at 10'o story on that will tell you about ion inside when I guess he went to arbitration they pointed out that don't pay big money for singles hitter that he's the wrong it's the moment this year then he's kind of caught in between because there you see his stance he's got four different stances that he owns up to line drive to the left fielder Brock first to American leaguer that the ball hard to run at somebody to down Thurman Munson of the Yankees hitting third batting 326 with even six homers 55 RBIs Munson

description he talked of all that turmoil on that open club he's this Joe Rudi's a misfit he gets along with everybody he ever says anything that's writing just because that we get the job done one one thing is it foul down the right-field line you know it's an interesting story Alvin dark today as the word is Rudi better in left field and first bases did much better as it is tennis better at first in catchy he's that much better the way if you get both got him out of religion well that's the way it has to be in our ballclub II said that's a great explanation [Laughter] go Rudy leading off

Garvey a third and first you have Concepcion and Morgan a short second from the red and here's on deck Henry Aaron is going to be sent up to bat budget for let your vital blue I don't think the fans realize injector it not and hearing the ballpark to be some kind of rule in Eagle Jim they scored an error against the set Co on that play slots then it's the first half an aerobatic all the way the allstar ruled the starting eight must go at least three innings I've played the first three and they play the whole game with the manager logically they have to play at least three engines darks plans were not have any of his pitchers hit because of the designated easel everybody get a hit by pitch pong ball and a strike Pandarus 9268 and then the hot streak lately Hank Aaron on deck I pitched kale away from him a ball and two strikes there's her all money came to Lausanne 20 years later back again all-star game in County Stadium chronic lip line away due to the campaneras what's throughout the genesis first royce continues to throw very hard he's become the ace of the fire staff that ball in the right field and it was easing up at second on first place you can't but area here Aaron here's

thousands and thousands and now there are again the Buffalo are coming back because somebody cared isn't that what life's all about caring which slits believe it they blew that beer only one way with Augusto mood to be the best and you can taste it eh life's too short to settle for Less go for the gusto or don't go at all the wheels are rolling people are buying cars and presents operations going

participating Chrysler Plymouth or Dodge dealers or the nationwide sale we did it before there's that Henry earned line drive let's see I don't know I'll say that was called constructio 2008 diane bruce fremming the third-base umpires did yeah you did get it but I think conceptual was fooled because Henry was sawed off so badly splinters of the bat who the correction of conceptual in shortstop but he couldn't pick the ball up and a very tough call and the third base umpire Bruce groaning made the final decision on it he had the best angle I think he got in the webbing well the new pitcher is Steve Busby for the American League was 111 in lost seven this year earned run average at two point six for Linda California born in Burbank the cousin of Jim Busby Atlanta coach you tended you have seen it turns out too many outstanding collegiate player of the gawad of the major league baseball he pitched two no-hitters in the major league against the Tigers and 73 against Milwaukee last year ere the coaches red shadings is coaching a third for the National League and the canny Irishman Danny Murtaugh over at first he become Pizza work is lethal oh what a guys welcome back from his sole business personality Lou Brock starts it off third inning the National League ahead to nothing Brock Morgan and bench all the way Brock your first time up why the left Buzzbee last pitched on Thursday when all the way losing 3-2 to to the Tigers the American League staff has rested may not have been an order but a very strong recommendation by American League better leave me fail don't work your pitchers on Sunday you manage let's go in here and try and win one all in a strike Galoob rock blue is cuffed around in two innings he gave up five hits two runs both homeowners want to do Tony's it just me but look at his back doesn't it look a little more yellow than a normal like it's been soaked in oil or something now what they call a Harry Walker bath with ease dip it in a certain kind of painter shellac two-tone ever shot in a gap Rudi very quickly up rock makes his turn and now we'll see the all kind older the bass feeling record of one year hundred eighteen last year loop rock forward and already the cloud even though he's been asked to leaguer then go go rock tied with Sylvania for second of a National League in stolen bases with 36 he's got to be careful of that Busby's got a great move he's probably got the best move for a right-handed pitcher I've seen he's liable to pick him right off yo Morgan single of Center his first time paradise is their rocket birth DeMorgan at the back mortgage can pull the ball behind the runner [Applause] you could dump one they get dragged you can go for power and an extra-base hits the score Brock them first rockets about a three and a half step lead that's all he wants he says but we're all locked he'll always be buzzing this is the one they've been calling a lot this year with that right-handed pitcher just pivots on that left heel you've got to step toward the bag control you can't pivot and then step after you throw deceiving the baserunner Morgan for sure will be grinding up that ball to the right side and move brach the third at least I'll get him in are still even with a bag to the corners grants a little high on outside legit Jackson and right field is playing very shallow I'd say so whoa Joe can hit that ball over his head he's had 13 homers this year a little fella amazing power a 100 delivery coming up to Joe Morgan a block at second nobody out that was a breaking pitch down you got to believe that Jackson figures if he gets the whole live ball with the kind of power he's God's going to be in the seat anyhow and it'd be smashed and went on the ground he'd have a play at the plate and so he's going to gamble he's given up an awful lot of ground behind him but even gambling outfielder a two nothing pitch look out this place good pitch by buzz the breaking pitch behind two and all there's Brock at second he singled went to second on a balk nobody out National League ahead to nothing for the five of the third inning Morgan if the I popped the first baseman Gene Tenace take certain file grounders one dime Brock holding a second Johnny Bench fouled the third his first time we had only two previous Fox and all-star games friend in 1960 and stole the early next to Miller in 1961 let's remember that one in Candlestick Park and pull him off the mouth yogi was hit that led in that game that's the one where Kenny for amid all the airs the grid with swooshing ground balls around the infield balls were bouncing over guy's head when pushed Johnny Bench up rocket second rock used there he starts a - black doesn't steal third much most of this steals last year his record-breaking season worth the second tohru's homeless daddy on the second base bag tried to hold him close we stole third base only six times last year and was caught stealing a third twice we made only eight attempts all year [Applause] Oh jump on us there's a little Brock husband little disadvantages he's not able to work his pickoff place the bases welcome it's an opposing deep person got rid of the ball quickly but there's no chance now if you're forced to come in that's where they come to see them the men do what they do best rocket just gonna the infielder now a one out nationally already leading to nothing Johnny Bench the batter holds up on a sharp breaking curve at the two uncounted Johnny Bench Steve Garvey's on deck Reggie Smith was educated over for the National League bench he

continue to hammer away thanks leading the Nashville again double let's look again at last time this garbage came to the plate and here's that whole run and this was really blasted oh yes it was no doubt about it basketball mr. platts the Garvey up again all-star Most Valuable Player the National League's most valuable player and a Gold Glove first baseman his first year of the regular as they had him going for that curveball tell you guys if I had to fill the ball player I'd use this guy as a blueprint because all you got to do is just start him on the field he's going to hit you 300 gonna drive you in the runs I'm going to give you no trouble at all off the field never misses a game right one ball one strike then went on deck I couldn't believe him the story we were reading last week about supposedly I say supposedly suddenly he mates criticize him because it was such a nice guy and inaudible off this package yeah talking to the people on the banquets doesn't think that he should be doing what's this world coming to when you got to defend yourself as you're a good guy one ball two strikes let you turn him upside down you find a good house key if you see one this week the positive this one file 1 & 2 bench will go back the first thing Oh bread Jane deeds play here in Milwaukee welcome to a pennant right after that the year after he had tuberculosis you was here he is what a battle it was we wanted [Applause] the National League's leading three nothing in the top of the third inning Garvey asking for time Jim wins on Dec 7 hips already for the National League and there's the toy Canada not much of a lead for bench Garvey still has the count of 1 & 2 the National League has won 11 of the last 12 winning 8 in a row from 63 through 70 they lost in 71 by 2 blue was the winning pitcher in that game and the National League has won the last three that balls hit hard on the left that's two for two Steve Garvey and here's where they're hitting close on tonight three hits are sitting off Busby here's Jimmy winds old run tony kubek his last time up I'll find a blue once again he got about the same pitch maybe a little bit more over the plate and the one Garvey hit then it quite as good that one sort of floated in yeah Jimmy Wynn runners on first and second one out eight hits for the National maybe a double play they've got one over they go to Ferb wide roof throw was high and pull tennis off the bag he had a tough pivot of second to a little bit off else the ball might have gotten stuck his love whether he's got tore up a couple of years ago that knee when somebody really belted him Garvey got down quickly even on first and second a nice play by Gino Tony looked like he didn't get to that bag we should have used off-balance when he took to throw he did I don't know what happened Joe he just threw off the wrong flat wall was everybody loved I guess that's why they say he never anticipated double play it looks like a Dilla play ball well that was definitely I think a double-play faltered and for some reason carousing to be there waiting and never mind that the timing was off but then without sound and making an alibi obviously they haven't played together and it gets to be a thing where you know what the other guys going to do and and here's some times they talked me out there they have to be brewing over in tata campaneras alright that was Wes stock the American League pitching coach got talking to Steve Busby over a third is Johnny Bench at first base that Jim Wynn there two down the National League's ahead three

makes in a World Series all the time he actually missed just the ball he started it and it had a really backtrack past but he recovered very well if they've another robber maybe to the National League

thousand seats for this game tonight our handheld camera high above and Bobby Bonds has a curve strike go Garrett Julie this voice has been impressive tonight only one hit on him so far there's our mini cam from the roof and I guess it's Cory liable who's there Curt it's an interesting story on this Bryce the tides on by that I mean he he wanted to know the answer of why am I so good in a bullpen and not so good in the game and he went to a hypnotist a fella named Arthur Allen who helped on suck and when you talk to him about it Rice's we talked it over he put me in a trance and he taught me to squeeze my finger when I felt tension it's his thumb and against his middle finger and that seems to relieve it and then when he gets thumbs the bottom line he said if I've got good stuff I'll win boy he has a great curve very through Bobby bond he just kept throwing him breaking stuff bond just flying out to deep-fry his birthday a strikeout number two for Joey Royce Rod Carew lying

astronauts up there flying around someplace with a beautiful moon over Milwaukee tonight there we go ride through customs of all through I say right now is anybody two majors of the active players that we know I'm going to hit 400 again way Williams did in 41 would be Carew but every year gets later for him he loses some speed and bidding out infield hits a bunt you might have that kind of chance on six artificial surfaces when Ashley but I don't think there's anybody in baseball who gets the fat part of the bat on the ball more often than Carew last year at all-star game time he was up around 380 this year he's only hitting about 370 rod Carew's at first base one out the National League's ahead three nothing when the last little third here in Milwaukee Thurman Munson was hit by a pitch Pauly's first time Garvey holding a first that curl um hide a monster Reggie Jackson scheduled up next one one cow do you like to talk to young pitchers like voice because he coming out of st. Louis understand was talking about last night how differently what was it the kid who was sober wildered to a kid who thought he knew it all now back to this mature pitcher of the year's monster didn't want to go for that ball check the swing and fouled it away ok what kind of the Aries having John zonies uh told you side was shut out before Randy Jones of Messersmith and his earned run average of 2 point 2 3 his third behind Seaver and Messersmith he's pitching low hit games low run games giving a fire up the big year one of the reasons why they leave these two divisions in actually he's a head of Thurman Munson 1 & 2 withdrew at first one out high flyball voice brutal Center Jim Wynn will be there easy play for him 2 down Reggie Jackson took a called third strike his first time up and his teammate Joe Rudi will come out on deck Royce the last time up just blew the ball by Jackson old interesting to see now if he goes for the curveball I have to get him out an off-speed stuff Jackson's tied for second in American League homers a ball doing with Jeff Burroughs of the Rangers 18 bonds of the leader with 20 I thought I'd ever see an outfield upon San Francisco Giants layer in the middle by Oakland A's players Rudi ins activist if it can help but that's the way it is tonight [Applause] you never know about baseball do you think Jackson what's this pitch Joe haha at all inside to him ball three you think he wants this one agree another look at him looking at the close of each if it takes time they're shocked with that in there the whole month later they bury a third do there are the home run leaders he went for it he said I'm not coming all the way both will take three and all access that that's a real great situation boy that's at room service pitch hello room service Reno bat fastball right here big crowd real one for this price T voice one a curve ball I okay oh boy that's as hard as he can throw yes sir that will break you plug in one pitch right there fences did you see bench 90 that on that was briam to a Jackson - Don Kerr will be going on a pitch to get a big lead there he goes bounding ball hit the shark here's the throw to first the shortstop except yon were playing Dacron over by second base and had to go over in a hole for that seeing that great combination in Reggie Jackson at so many of the modern baseball players have power strength and great speed Dave always comes up with a fine play but Jackson can run well the American League has runners on first and second two out they've had two hits off Royce is fitting and as a leak the head three nothing home runs by Garvey and Jim Wynn in the second inning and Bench singled in the third run in the third Rudy round into 30 first time up fast balls away from him want to know Greg nettles is on deck [Applause] like Rudy SS desk or left but he could use the entire ballpark hit with power to right center high in a way especially those pitches out over the place why isn't rolls plugin F cab to purchase to pick up on what you just said he doesn't allowed my fender he's playing him pretty much straight left by the gap in right-center boy two balls and no strikes to Joe Rudi it was one of the best plush hitters in the game most it is hits her meaningful he leaves the A's of game-winning hits this year two balls no strikes at second basis through a first base of Jackson file into the state's two and one you know the one thing that Pete Rose worried about in the pregame workout yesterday and again today the fact that he has not been in right field for so many years he said I'm going to have to get help from somebody tell me where to go out he's going to rely on Reggie Smith and he said Joe Morgan and move him around so I got to believe right now where he's playing him he's got a position I met his wife and young suit before they gave me up as big as he is not about four years old boys chunky to one fetch their the bounding ball is short steps y'all long throw to

left field Jim Wynn comes out Reggie Smith with the Cardinals goes in the center field and in right field it's Bobby Murcer of the San Francisco Giants that's the new outfield Mercer will be batting second Smith bath to think Bobby Bonds strike one rumor he was the batter when Johnny Bench picked the campaneras aw [Applause] one ball one strike Rita nothing we've had all kinds of plays here pickoff plays diving stops home run curveball misses [Applause] 50 1484 that says it all all the time so nice game hi well hit Rose is going to have a tough play and he makes that call that free throws brother I say they use an expression this private day that he quits her husband and when he takes his shoes off his field goal percentage 100 thinking a lot ever pizzas came over from right field he's played most of the season at third-base it doesn't still does the job pretty upbeat I heard quite a shift for me first time from right to left fail of all that even a different angle we've got it makes his tumbling grab his bottoms up with it his body took a bad hop look at that he caught that ball and held on to it fantastic play by Pete Rose oh I love this he goes played because it just kind of gripes me when I hear people say all it's just another game right - Morgan - out what a play by Petros it fall by bonds was really hit hard next Saturday Milwaukee at Chicago and Atlanta at New York we've seen in Milwaukee and Chicago so that's the saturday baseball two o'clock there it is Milwaukee versus the White Sox and in Milwaukee and Chicago you'll see in Lantana meadows right here on NBC 2 o'clock Saturday here's months and he was hit by a pitch and flied to center field hey Pitt roses up with it Cincinnati Reds president more in the dirt than even on their feet that's about the third time for Dave once for Rose he just misses it once and difficult employers play him a little bit up the middle but Thurman Reed sprays the ball around exceptions big ass that is the range he covers he's tall we're going to have a runner coming in here now ha tell Washington he just has gone through some tests he had some dizzy spells he's only 20 years old and one of the coming superstars of baseball the tests were all negative they'd given him a clean bill of health much to the relief of the Oakland A's that if they three nothing National League lead a week to this color running because Claudel can run he's get over he may go anyhow Garvey played behind him you never know very close no chance if he kept him it'll be a miracle bobby was slammed behind him and clocked out that if you want to give it to me we'll out sign up bar to take it and he did so this is one of the changes in baseball and I think is for the better with all the speedy base dealers around even though they're behind they take off and run to get in scoring position no longer play that one by the book I know you like it I love it I think it's great because that'll play the stolen bank that you get today really serves notice for the next couple of days even though it may not figure into scoring right here for the next time Claudell Washington gets on they're going to say you better watch him holding close it might mean more curveballs it might mean the guy holds him on you got a big hole between first and second it's a real good commercial now getting back to Washington here he is only 20 years old he's stolen 32 bases this year and he's hitting over 300 do you think he's got a future come home youngest player neither squad something moves Jackson back it's one ball two strikes two

Kissinger's Secretary's Elton ring seated within seventh inning well not I never got started at seventh inning stretch you know time under the president one of the presidents way back when with the ballgame and he stood up the stretch slave gotta love it's legendary or not again rest of the staff to do it and the rest of that if these stands we stands to go to never cert that's a bunch of time that's it I remember what guru unless I got to get even with it opening we heard you say stands old teammate and males old teammate and they are old we heard you tie ballgame bottom of the seventh through and shot Matt laughs oh the Babe Ruth's that I had a better year than Hoover the root can really handle that bat curveball misses I asked him about the four different stances that he's got this would be a kind of an open stance uses one-way squares legs are closed for winding curve ball pitchers and he uses one partially open and slightly back and wide open in an open stance I would think if he stays number two look he's moved already he constantly moves two balls and two strikes the count struck him out John Matlack with a good fastball this is the second all-star game picks up a strikeout he was complaining about only playing three innings last time he's getting his share tonight let's knock out again out of Target bill how did the whole plate umpire there might have been a mix-up and how best looking over stop shoulder I think there's some mix-up in the lineup here Haller now going over the National League dugout tension West obviously well who is sitting where yeah but Carew in that game so he's alright yeah his schedule first Washington's next there's frustration when stock although a we've got it up here relayed from down to the umpires this is the nationally Bowa will bat seven Matlock Matt Matlack eight Matlock knife under questioning apparently the lineup for the American League figured out Stan uses you're the honorary captain think of something look at it look at that score so I'll have to mark it out it's like a wet crossword puzzle well you know a couple of times this year though guys have gotten away with it Red Sox had it with you know God better not a turn nobody Carter Washington is up to now Claudell Washington and sort of the most interesting situates we pages in the rule but I guess the complicated bouncing ball up the middle and club to help get the face hit and he likes to run he can run and with the score tied he probably will run here it is looking over the shoulder of Reggie Smith just out of the reach they get caught out you see why he gets a lot of supplementally play their infield spread apart shortstop and second base on him he does sprayed the ball around Billy Martin is the first base coach and he was over talking to Kyle Washington Alvin dark just turned him loose he gives him a green light this is Bucky tenet of white socks pink lead by club he'll Washington it was just a little bit of a notice that I know you're there not as good move then is a very difficult man to strike out the tough out good butter to that was a little better still not as good move he hasn't given you that Sunday move yet where he fools is when he comes home he kicked that leg in the direction the first phase will get you cleaning back and then he comes home yet good swing at it we're all tied when the bottom of the seventh inning three three looked like the National League was going to make a romp when they got back-to-back home runs from Garvey and Wynn in the second inning a three-run pinch-hit home run by yastrzemski in the sixth and it's all tied up nationally got another run the third ah it's great to see those shortstops come in and bat cleanup in an all-star game I think then ever dream of that oh brother it goes great kids about it I don't blame they got a catcher batting cleanup an inside I was on a team with Henry Aaron and George Scott night Kelly got he picked off will he make it it got it he's broke too soon he was in no man's land Garvey - for now the bag was torn loose that lack - or a couple times a year see here this sometimes is a pre-planned play Brock does it Morgan does it they get the thick lead cross draw and then try and beat the first baseman throw the second base but not this time that was a good shot we had there because you could see he broke really way too soon we're gonna have a little bit of time he got a new bang you know most players would have been out by a yard or two on that he's so fast that he made that a close play at second base watch it here now he still got look at there he still had the ball wasn't even going close to the plates on him that might have been a prepend planned play we saw Lou Brock tried on our Saturday game of the week he was caught but a lot of the good base dealers the past runners try wills tried a lot he did it against us the World Series the Yankee ballclub had made at the second base well it's good the groundskeepers get a little bit of television exposure because they get this field in great shape they're constantly working this is something I think the fans rarely see how a bag is anchored down at a major league ballpark this all happens three or four hours before a ball game start nobody old days when had the straps right you can take a look at how hard fought out Washington must have broken that little part loose toward right all right and he grabbed it with his hand - you know while we've got some time Joe we've talked about a lot of people who's often talking to have a lot of people in all-star games in a lot of ball games these are two pretty young all-star teams I think you have to congratulate golly this is what the 10th consecutive all-star telecast 1966 think of it oh I hope don't be so humble obeah first gonna feel about to get you to your opinion hit up the watch they like at the luncheon today that's what we saw on the broadcasters good you have the time down there fixing that bag we've seen just about everything diving catches good bass dealing there's the commissioners box again very quickly one vault in the ballgame this is going to take an engineering job you're giving somebody alpha alpha wasn't there a rule the old games if you jarred the bag loose you were safe by kind of thinking it was a rule change john Matlack as the groundskeepers start to work or they're really digging there I'd be a good time to review the scoring for those who've joined us late Garvey led off the second with a home run to left his teammate Jim Wynn followed with a homer to make it to nothing in the third Rock single wet the second on a balk stole third scored on benches single that made it three nothing American League kept threatening leaving two men on two men on man on the fourth man on the fifth and finally Yastrzemski hit a pinch-hit three-run homer to tie it up in the sixth that's where we stand right now here is Bucky Dent strikers call [Applause] Matlack with a good pickoff move able to get in Washington [Applause] curveball and death is not on strike slow purple so we am separating them we're still tied up here national three American League three we did it before and we can do it again this time it's a nationwide sale from Chrysler Corporation Rapids okay this time you can get $300 cash back on new 1975 full-size priceless dodge Monaco and Plymouth gran fury $300 back on the cars with room and luxury so come on down to your participating dodge our Chrysler Plymouth dealers or their nationwide sale we did it again you know you like your familiar is everything you always wanted in a beer unless it's less filling and light has one-third less calories than the regular beer oh heck I didn't drink all this beer by myself I had a little help from bos class but imagine a great tasting beer that's less filling just like you're gonna take a heap spill in there any so like beer from Miller everything you always wanted in a beer unless we pause now for station identification see Gladys Knight & the Pips Thursday at 8:00 7:00 central time Joe Morgan jumped on the first pitch and just fouled it off for strike one he can really control that strike zone [Applause] right to Cecil Upshaw has a great description Upshaw a physic and he's so small that even when you pictured the bottom part the strikes on his eyeballs and not very far from it he's right he can really deliver there how much of a strike zone Tony he's leading the league in walks he's something he's leading though as well a lot of offensive departments I guess up until the all-star break he's been the deep player in the major leagues to strike fish hopped up rod Carew's taken charge Morgan is out Joe a catfish hunters got to be a pleasure to sit behind home plate and try and catch tennis has been putting the target up and he's been right there Don with every pitch and it changes speed so I'll just help set the hitters timing this moves the ball around here is Johnny Bench bench is fouled out drove him to run the third inning and line hard and may 5th nettles really guarding the line at third we're all tied up to 3 apiece 28 you're flirting with danger two balls and no strikes there's a good shot of it look at the end he's way over in a hole for bench right thigh George Scott he calls Bart with that black beauty he'll get a tremendous man hey hometown boy makes it love him here why not he's had some good years Tony Perez now coming on to the on-deck circle he's going to be a pinch hitter you won the all-star game in Anaheim in a 15th inning with a home run off hunter - that's right fellas been a tremendous ballplayer and I guess when you listen to ballplayers they have their own way of describing how a guy get the job done as a pitcher for example is a great pitcher if with the man on third and less than two outs you can get out of it a batter if he can thrive that running from first base with two outs is a good batter of good hitter a good RBI man Perez they say he can drive him in from any place in the ballpark and includes the clubhouse had thoughts of trading him this past winter and what did he do he just got himself in better shape went to spring training didn't say nothing and said look I'm going to be ready he got off to a slow start that 255 is indicative of the arrow moving up Tony Perez all one all the Reds are having those big years together but not just the star just whoever they put in the lineup look at the foster for example dribbly Griff is another one catfish hunter against Perez woods rank [Applause] one ball two strikes asphalt can't even catfish get the strikeout and that's it for the National League we going to the bottom half the eighth inning tied up at real P cricket lighter is really quite a lied it will last for months and still burn bright whoo it's not easy being America's favorite disposable lighter you've got to be dependable adjustable and most of all you've got to be packed with thousands of lights and a cricket you missed one oh no just thousands of surefire light catch a cricket lighter by Gillette the Gillette track two introduces an adjustable cartridge that's right adjustable five setting right on a cartridge let you adjust the track to razor effect to your own skin and beard and the new adjustable cartridge fits the regular track to handle the Gillette track two shaving system with regular or new adjustable cartridges a closest thing to a perfect shave Henry Aaron tied an all-star game record by I'm hearing it is 24th in today we asked Henry before the volume is 15 like 20 years ago that he played here in Milwaukee I can remember that 1955 our all-star game Tony very well post mu to hit home run off Sullivan in the 12th inning to win the game and I just like to say that I'm very happy to be participating in my 24th all-star game and uh and hope the fans enjoy well Henry I'll tell you the fans are really enjoying it the ovation that he got before the game was a tremendous thrill we're all tied up part of the end here is Hendrick we've had a couple changes on defense for the national laid - second Perez is it first there is Dave cash and you talk about mr. positive thinking there's Tony Perez George Hendrick the Cleveland Indians Matlack misses two balls no strikes both managers using their squads Joe they're giving the fans to show and those fans wanted dr. John thrown [Applause] helps us take a look at the pinch-hitting situation the right-handed pinch-hitter is left for the American League they still have Dave shock bill free hands Dobby hair and helmet crave throughout a left-handers he two balls and two strikes that fouled out of play Dave cash the second baseman really breaking hard to his left as Hendrick begins his swing madlife kept that fall outside the last two pitches looked like George's can go that way broke the other way and now ain't getting any the other way yes that fastball tails away that might throw to right-handed hitters as soon as he saw the fastball five Cashman shaded with left a little thing like this may be the difference the Hendrix really ran hard all the way you see him going almost have been recovery by David cash yes sir he played the pitch he broke the other way in and caused him here now his medals he's singled in the enforce that he's 1 for 3 Matlock at third base is moved in close he's looking for the bunt [Applause] like off the shin guards that nettled hasn't done much of this in his career he punted that one I mean Logan as I look at it he's saying but how do you spell it my naughty a pun again I'm going to give it for me come on what a hole he's got between cash and her heads at first base if he does put the switch on and pull the ball not the good move no it may wind up very important this game could be Helmick rave bat your surge something to keep in mind M&M dugout tennis of the on deck hitter if you're wondering turned him loose you took it inside one ball one strike a lot of things you could be thinking about Erin Hendrick has got great speed at first base Matlock at third base is in you could play run and hit you to play hit and run you could play fought run straight deal we're all tied on in high curveball absolutely American Legion roundhouse he threw that time hung up a you skin big cantaloupe I'd have to bet that Alvin dark is going to put the switch hunt again along swing aways ahead on the count you'd probably be guessing that lack coming with a basketball Madlock is way off the right corner nice Justin back right the Koran they've got one boys coming back named Margot Hendrix barrel Linda's start-stop bull just be not too upset as Tiny on the throw horse the wild throw or they could not get that look at it there comes Henry ball trying to get all the way the inside you just made him jump out of the way a little bit upset if he didn't get much on the trawl you think it enough time Tony I really looked thought he did I think that's plenty of time there is he's got the ball that'll does not run well balls released before he there he took everyone oh yes there he would you Kenneth takes the strike [Applause] - got something to say to him now we got one man out that's Alvin dark one ball one strike boys cheating towards a hole and Kash is cheating towards the bag two strikes the town one out [Applause] Tony if a crown ball was hit right now the cash there's no way he'd have to run over there wouldn't he no way you could get a double play and second base oh I'd be tough though would have a long way to go they control he doesn't have to very speedy runner could be to the advantage we don't have to worry about it because they get to ask Larry I was a good fastball got enough a lot of the National League hitters talk about John Matlack having a but the lightest arm the one of the live at that ball really darts in a strike zone one of the reasons this youngster Lynn did not go in the first round of the draft they thought he would fail out against left-handers he doesn't mean strike I don't what he'll do you watch them you'll stand in here against the left-hander how about 10 RBIs the one game for a rookie this year huh three homers but can RBIs for anybody we missed a fourth over by a couple of feet in the same game [Applause] and as good cut there he is scoring one of the runs against the Tigers that he had five hits the knocked in 10 runs three homers and a in a single pulls it foul and strike two well your man McCrae is just come out of the American League dugout Kurt he's going to be the pinch-hitter we're all tied up we're in the bottom of the eighth here 3-3 Hal McRae that's really getting to counting down on a fine line what's he going to do against left-hand pitching and young like that and it goes so well against right-hand pitching two men out there goes nettles a big job no way he makes one third he's brown inspected he used to the motor service Troy metal took off and they across Johnny back up and now metal to disturb what a surprise nobody in the ballpark including Matt like expecting nettles to call but he takes off had even rolled out a surface 5s there might have been an obstruction and say doctor did not steal abeyance all season long and never comes up with a stone of aja they can cross them up now I think the ball just was concealed from his view by the battle in his body right you're absolutely right Tony I don't think he's crossed up I think that that bat got right in the line of vision John wasn't sure and went off the heel nettles had had a steal during the regular season he's been scoring position at third with two men out but Matlock gets the strike down Lena's Auto strike that NBA scene and we're all tied up at the end of eight complete innings nationally free American League three ever since people started recording information there's been a need to duplicate it very nice words brother Dominic thank you very night now I would like five hundred more sense [Music] buzzer Dominic how are you could you do a good job for me the Xerox 9200 duplicating system unlike anything we've ever made feeds and cycles originals has a computerized programmer that controls the entire system can duplicate reduce and assemble a virtually limitless number of complete sets and does it all at an incredible two pages per second curious Ed's father 500 sets you last four it's America hi I'm Bob Uecker you know during my brilliant baseball career about the closest I came the firsthand knowledge of an all-star game was what I read Adlai was voted in each year I was always asked to take the three days off this year though I've been closer than I've ever been to the classic thanks to this official 75 all-star magazine full of features facts and a super fold-out poster to get your copy send the check or money order for two dollars and fifty cents to all-star magazine box zero Milwaukee that's 252 all-star magazine box zero Milwaukee C in the book the preceding announcement was furnished by Major League Baseball and Balfour here is Reggie Smith he is batting left-handed against catfish hunter off the other bastard drop-in and fast as Washington he pops the ball home he had a long way to come now he wasn't wildly but nice play by catfish hunter he almost made one terrific catch he had to come a long way from left field and you wonder as he started getting under the ball at that ball might have gotten into life he worked it right off the heel of his glove Jordan looks like he took his eye off the ball maybe lost in the light it's away lying about the third step from where you declare the Paul hit him it looked like he may have been helping distracted and what he guarded by running on his heels or whatever at any rate Smith is on here is el Oliver strike one tried to bunt hitting 294 nine home runs in 48 runs better than Oliver this is the last left-handed pinch-hitter the National League has have sent it of the Pirates and Gary Carter of Montreal left other bench both right-handers outside one ball one strike one one two count chased a bad ball it seemed like is on the outside part of the plate miss one ball two strikes did he go around I'll tip got a piece of it he went around all right lively game has it sure has and they've had a lot of players in the game this kind of game that Tony was saying people want to see players they see him all kinds of plays trying to move Claudell Washington back Oliver with good power to left centerfield and right centerfield [Applause] lying on a left-field line Washington chasing it he can't be holy mouth red foot the red light up that falls like the way from Del Washington they're moving back but let's open up to the line if the two faces were all over the fifth here here's Tony looks like he's got a bead on it the warning track and then he pulls up he did get to the ball very quickly now as he praises himself against the wall and gets the very quickly shading started to step Smith and then shades at the last arcs coming instantly for right-handers but a couple of difficult plays in a row furry young Claudell Washington were filled interesting story Claudell Washington almost did not get area those dizzy spells when he painted what twice in his hotel room instead of the doctors but he wanted to come to the all-star game and hear another human story Alvin dark removing a pitcher he managed last year the Victorian baseball under moving under the Yankees well there it is it charged your SD I thought I sold that with $300 back we're not putting it on if you got class you're gonna ride that it's holders Onalaska boys well is the break in the action to score nationally clean American League 3 we did it before and we can do it again this time it's a nationwide sale from Chrysler Corporation yeah all right you can get up to 300 hours cash back on new 1975 Plymouth dodges and full-size fragments and $200 back on Dustin value dodge Dodge pickups and vans come on down to your participating dodge or Chrysler Plymouth dealers or their nationwide fail we did it before we'll do it again two professional drivers one on our Warren non radials the other on a new set of Sears Dyna glass guardsmen radials watch the difference in cornering fraction [Music] it's a combination of radial design and a road hugging threat to give you this kind of cornering track the Sears Dinah glass Guardsman radial now on sale at 25 percent off only at Sears well a new pitcher is rich Gossage he's four and six thirteen thames 1.9 two hundred Everage and there is the commissioners award for the most valuable player and four of the five winners of that award that started in 1970 they give this after the game's over is gremsky one at 1970 Bobby Bonds and 73 Joe Morgan and 72 and Steve Garvey won the commissioners trophy last year I say it's up for grabs right now in this game you can put the names on the wall and hit it with the Dartmouth you pretty good shape here's what they call a basic four shot of the pitcher that's kind of a joke with our people at the quad and it gives you a good view of Gossage studying any one of the four that you'd like you'll see a different view and he control hard he has really come along for the White Sox helping out Terry Forester out of that bullpen when he comes from the side to right-handed hitters he'll back you out of the box Tony I think the one that quad in the right hand upper right hand corner is the one he he throws so hard he he almost jumps out of there EBT bears down on it the situation is this we've got face hunters in second third Oliver's its second Reggie Smith is the third there is nobody out the infielders in and Larry Bowa is the batter and he is a man who gets the fat on the ball tough man to strike out how to play pause an excellent butter with nobody out well you don't look for a squeeze play they'd like to get them a crack to the fly ball but you never know boys only struck out 12 times in 63 games hey all the way back wait a min ahead hi miss ball to me I'm hitting they're going to give them first base they're going to kill him first base just didn't take him souls up bases are loaded now and it's up to Phil Matlock and this is what the all-star games are all about you got the bases loaded you're in the top of the ninth nobody out and the National League's leading hitter is up there let's take a look and see we to pick up the ball actually hitting Larry ball the first things open tenants actually moved outside you wanted to pitch away a lot of pressure on the infielders now Joe yes sir Kasich is going to work off the stretch outside ball one bill Madlock 353 Morgan 3:45 sangeun 338 Parker 336 not even here Watson 326 on Parker 15 Homer there's a big player of the future Dave Parker with the Pittsburgh Pirates pretty good Troy arms of the option for the American League right now Washington throws well charges the ball well let Freddy Lynn an exceptional program and he really charges the ball and Hendricks goes well and right on a fly ball foul ball out of play one ball in one strike we'll pause briefly for station identification the NBC television network [Applause] bases-loaded how to play once again top pitch cough is really common sidearm and brother he wheeled and dealed from third base on that one one pitch now with the kind of one ball and two strikes he'll really be sneaking went up there Madlock tough hitter Gossage tough pitcher [Applause] Oh baby idea snakes they can quiz your food sometimes you just can't pull that trigger he just missed with that one Gossage is throwing bullets he is throwing hard to run goes for happy boy and he knocked the ball away I am NOT going to play a third base if he close it and they may be quickly Richie needs to phone and I don't know he resorted to golf is funny picked it up and that's curving was not all-star play dressed up with a rough 20 years to realize oh my what up battle my bill Madlock with metals play yeah thousand fifty from the scrap heap drill one tennis is a cookie car once all the way on the fly look at that almost a Bob Costas backing to play up overcook the umpire the bats wife I think it's red in the tail and more trouble with the infield and hit everybody but somebody to center field bleachers this is right an error was charged to heaven Yeah right I guess allowing him to go to third [Applause] two RBIs on the play if you're scoring an error on the catcher tenants which allow the baserunner bow to go to third Matlock ends up at second on the play wrenchini definitely came with the Neely without that one from a game you'll never forget [Applause] Pete Rose he be super for dawn the ninth inning with two runs International League is taken up 5 to 3 leaves 23 incidence game so far [Applause] [Applause] outside hi well we've had some action here and so another name into the Hat to the possible MVP of this game Madeline Oliver up
