bit on the overcast side but the weatherman says don't worry about it folks it's going to be a beautiful day and it certainly is up till now a beautiful day for a ball game Cubs against the Giants as the Cubs try to retrieve a little self-respect from the last two days that the Giants have kind of beat them out here in heartbreaking fashion 2 to 1 and 4 to 3 couple of ball games of course that the kinds that give a manager sleepless nights if you get your brains knocked out you just write it up and forget it and say tomorrow is another day but those one-run jobs are the ones where you lie there and figure out if you have done this here or this here or this here or this here it would have turned the game around well so much for that history now today is another day Cubs Giants always a tremendous rivalry I'm Jack Brickhouse along with model Hamilton who will be upstairs here in the moment lou boudreau will be along a little bit later on Jack Rosenberg Oh or WGN sports out of it with us Arnie Harris directing this great crew of ours capturing these baseball headlines as they're being made pretty good crowd out here today expect a little noise because the Cubs and their fans have quite an interesting relationship and I don't know they could be 10 runs behind in a ball game and somebody gets two base hits and the next thing you know a couple of them are on their feet around here because they just can smell a big rally and that's the way Cub fans are they never really give up fighting order now for the San Francisco Giants were going to send it Whitsun against the Cubs it's three and one this year and one four of his last five decisions and he's doing very very well against the Cubs - he'll be facing Randy mark who's one and all against the Giants this year San

Henderson is in left Pat Tabler at second Bill Buckner at first Bobby Bonds in center batting cleanup against his old teammates Leon Durham in right Jody Davis catching Ken reet's a third we Vonda

them as well the plate umpire today is gonna be the biggest umpire we have in baseball the wire I'm hiring at first is Harry wendelstedt Dutch Rennert out there at second and Ed Montague will be the umpire at third the temperature 78 degrees that's baseball weather folks and the winds out of the Southwest at about seven miles an hour which means that the wind is not going to be much of a factor in this ball game as a matter of fact I notice the center field scoreboard flags are flapping a little but the one down the right-field line is almost limp anyway yet set for a big afternoon where are you wherever you are in this great land of ours we welcome you to our efforts here at Wrigley Field to take your mind off your worries for a little while get you a little relaxation a little escape

[Music] on Beaufort coaching at first [Music] for the third Jimmy Davenport Harry wendelstedt umpiring at first let's round it at second third ed Montague [Music] and behind the plate Lee Weyer it's great to see that wire back in action model because a year ago we despaired of as ever being able to return to umpiring again got to be a miracle those first reports and now to see them back there it's really gratifying [Music] yes the ailment was a strange one I was some kind of a blood album was nothing it connected his eyes I tell you that what you're dependent upon for your profession that's really going to be scary pigley sometimes big fellas like that may look like they're clumsy or cumbersome the fact is he is anything else but a bowling instructor and one of the greatest guys of manipulating a deck of cards you ever saw in your life he and Ed Montague have that in common they are both magicians and I mean Pro so Morgan stepping in Milo let's get up let's get out front early today huh get some right let's get a lapper all right Randy March looking at Morgan is over for in this series and the first pitch is a ball and we are underway Randy March want to know this year and lifetime with the Giants 4 and 5 on the year and a strike to make it 1 and 1 morgen batting 241 six homers 25 runs batted in Cobell will be next then Clark that's a beauty 1 & 2 [Music] hope you're in early to hear Les moss talk about Randy Marx [Music] morgen waiting on a one - delivery he's gone let's do a couple of squats with an opening header Jack and got it right on the nose Morgan knoweth too you know it been fooled look at that curveball come in over that outside corner Sox got 3 in the second they lead three to nothing Toronto at that on the third now crowd against Lille but Leela's gone and McLaughlin is in there Detroit to Texas nothing run the Detroit third Detroit's going for their ninth straight today Matlack against Wilcox in that game strike then one and one to Cavell Capel 1 for 9 in this series against the league is hitting 245 with two homers and 26 runs batted in as the Yankees host Kansas City Gale for the Royals Guidry for the Yankees fouled off out of play 1 & 2 Arroyo goes for Minnesota up in Milwaukee gets has Montreal got a run in Atlanta mailer and there is Frank Robinson nan McMahon is pitching coach on his right that fellow with a cap over his eyes as Jim lefeber two balls two strikes Knepper will go for Houston at Philadelphia against Carlton Joey and there they are the twosome always looking at that picture Joey inlets three and two wells for San Diego against Korea Pittsburgh and so far no score after two and a half did you notice Berlin so well he got his 10 when last night finally got it beat the Dodgers 3 to 2 rather beats the st. Louis Cardinals through the tube for the Badgers he waited a while to get that one didn't they yeah four starts bouncer shortstop over and picks it clean and he knew that there wasn't any chance to get over in front of but not with Cobell running and watch how the ball comes up just where he wants it so he can scoop it and fire he's got to make a move look at this right in there don't underrate this throw either because he didn't have the luxury of being able to measure this one for very long nope Cobell runs well look at him look into that glove and say I've got it and let her fly nice going Yvonne now here's Clark this is a guy we got to keep off the base pass of course a couple of times he hasn't been on him very long you just trotted around them for if verse 7 in this series two homers and three runs batted in Clark hitting 246 but he has 10 homers and 33 ribbies and since the break he's something like 15 4:45 fifteen 443 in fact [Music] 2:03 you know Dodgers gotta run the first the Cardinals are now at that third Andy's just tied that one matter of fact he's put the Cardinals out in front he got a two-run homer his seventh of the year and the Cardinals are still at that Pittsburgh to San Diego nothing there in the Pirates third that's in there San Diego finally broke that losing streak last night and Toronto failed in the third White Sox leading 3 to nothing at the end of 3 of Toronto 3-1 to Clark and he ends up walking him [Music] never gave him a pitch to hip [Music] so Clark's at first where he's met by billy buckner and here is Darrell Evans their cleanup hitter and third baseman he's 1 for 8 in a series is it safe willing 11 of his last 13 games Evans for the year 246 10 homers 37 RBIs he and Clark are tied for the home run lead on the Giants 10 apiece Larry Herndon would be next the first two batters were up and down quickly Morgan and Cobell Morgan called out on strikes Cobell thrown out in a great play by the hey Suz now Clark his walk and a pitch outside to Darrell Evans [Music] madres come in tomorrow for three [Music] not a big lead for Clark uh ball two and Oh it'll be Mike Krukow Monday Ken cravaack on Tuesday and Doug bird will come back on Wednesday so right now that rotation is pretty well set when you've got Mart's ready [Music] two balls no strikes now he's three and oh and all of a sudden he's having trouble one Eichelberger will pitch the opener for the Padres tomorrow you believe that we're getting ready to go to the west coast again and we'll look at the Padres for the very first time all year tomorrow that's the team that would have been in here the day the strike started yes and of course we would have been out there once had a map meant for the strike to Rio walked into straight walks [Music] now you're bringing up a fella who's been swinging a good bat and especially was Matt on Larry Herndon he's 4 for 9 in this series with one RBI as a four-game hitting streak he's hit safely an eighth about his last 10 so right now he is a tough out [Music] against the league 305 three homers 27 runs batted in now is where Randy's got to bear down and get this fellow don't let those walks come back to haunt you two quick outs then just as quickly two walks one ball and no strikes he's been behind the last three hitters in fact the last four because he got behind Cobell before he eventually got him and last Moss wants to have a little talk with one of his prized pupils Randy Marx they have spotted something here that he's doing I asked les about it on the lead-off I said what about March now because coming in and relieved the last few times he's known that he was maybe going to be out there for an inning or two or three at the most it looked like he was more aggressive will he have a tendency maybe to try to pace himself here today since he's starting plus the humidity on the field feels like it's 99 he said well I hope not because I talked to him about it all morning but it looks like maybe he's fallen into a little pacing rut here because he's not the aggressive pitcher that we saw in relief the last few times well today tomorrow with the emphasis we now have on the bullpen more than ever before in baseball but tend to see us for the picture just to go out and fire as hard as he can and they can get five or six innings out of them fine gets the breaking ball in for a strike New York gotta run off Seaver Lynch is pitching for the Mets two and one [Music] at the half philadelphia eagles 12 New Orleans Saints 7 and preseason football congratulations to the Bears on that win last night maybe they'll start to put it together now and they got a scare at the end at that after a big lead to one in there and it's 2 & 2 [Applause] and in about an hour the sting will start their Trek hopefully towards bigger days and tonight at 6:00 the Chicago Fire plays the Jacksonville Firebirds in their first playoff game fouled off holding 2 and 2 on Herndon Kansas City failed in the first and the Yankees are now except you notice one mr. Russell shut him out last night he didn't really pitch that badly the other times he was out well the explained that been having tendency toward blisters and lost the fact that he wasn't quite in shape because of the strike I'm ball missing he's three and two merry-go-round will be on here the runners will be set Clark at second Evans at first the walk to each of them after two away and now we're down to cases on Herndon three and two Brenner's are going he walked him and he's walked the bases loaded [Music] that will bring up the center fielder Jeff Leonard who hasn't hurt us with his back but he killed us with his glove in his legs in the opening game Willie Hernandez is going to the bullpen Joey and less not happy with what they're looking at now [Music] I'm sure they kept hoping after the first couple of walks that he could come back and get him but instead E's walk the vases full now Jeff Leonard is the batter ball one Leonard's totals for the year including Houston and the Giants 251 homer and nine RBIs [Music] he'll hit her in the row that he started off behind you cannot tit from behind forever that says strike and it's one ball and one strike [Applause] [Music] Jeff Leonard the batter and a left-hand batting catcher Milt Mae would be next the one one from Randy Marx hi bow shirt stop the hastens go to short way side retired six four aces to Tabler and so Randy March just dodged a bullet everybody exhale we played a half an inning there were three walks the Giants are scoreless with no hits there weren't any cub errors three Giants were left and our Cubs are just now coming in to bat all right Pat Summerall get booked two of my 64 page full-color sports stars collection free with any $10 purchase at participating true value hardware stores and right now you could celebrate end of summer savings with their pre Labor Day carnival of value circular where you'll find duro superglue three for just 88 cents the tube and this true test latex caulk for just a dollar eighteen this long wearing or L paintbrush is just three ninety-nine and get four value bright light bulbs for just a dollar nineteen as participating true value hardware stores and home centers [Music] but in a case alone ground perfect when you want to taste of a truly great American beer tonight let it be low and brown must've been great up there I don't know it's pretty great down here [Music] zimsky is homered in the fourth with two on that's his thirteenth so now the White Sox lead Toronto six to nothing Toronto a pad on the fourth and a Pittsburgh for sandy you are nothing at the end of three let's put the Giants on the field left field you start with Larry Herndon number 31 go over to Center for Jeff Leonard number 26 in right field Jack Clark wears 22 at third-base Darrell Evans 41 million Smith 21 playing shortstop for the second straight day Joe Morgan the old but for number eight at second eNOS Cavell 23 at first on the mound Eddy what's the number 32 and his battery mate is Milt Mae number 7 Woodson comes in with a record of 4 and 5 367 ER a 14th outing Hall as a starter comes over the top of the breaking ball gets a strike cold inside-the-park home run model for Melbourne for the Yankees in the first that's his first home run but soon has worked 76 innings thrown 6 home run balls which is a high ratio for him one ball one strike walk 29 struck out 41 and I talked about him on the lead off with less how tough he was on us last year our coaches cookie Rojas at third gene clines at first two and one to Henderson listen to this figure whitson against the Cubs lifetime is three and one with an e ra of 142 that's pretty stingy he shut us out once last year for his first win and the prove it was no fluke a week later did it again - and - to Anderson [Music] Henderson struggling in this series he's all for eight batting 270 against the league with four homers and 21 runs batted in this with a breaking ball nettles just got a home run for the Yankees in the first with two on that's his 10th of the year well the Yankees are having a big first inning against Kansas City they've got those gotten those runs for Guidry Jack you don't want to let him get too big a lead he's tough when it's tight fouled off as he jammed him on the fist Dodgers with two in the second Cardinals now it's at Los Angeles 3 st.

Kingman got his 11th career Grand Slam better win that ballgame for the Mets last night seven to four bouncer that may if that isn't a full-blown Major League second base play I don't know what you

enough on it to a stretching Buckner and it wasn't even close man oh man what a play you enjoy it again it was a three up three down inning in the crowd still buzzing we played an inning and a half the Giants nothing the Cubs nothing [Music] now there's a brand new charcoal you just pour and light you don't need lighter fluid ever match light look again match light lights fast and easy you don't

off he'd be followed by Pines and then Davis Kingman by the way with his 11th career Grand Slam is now tied with Johnny Bench and Stargell in that department along the active players [Music] strike one - the Bull Durham in this series is one for eight with a run batted in [Music] it's safely in 17 of his last 19 James there's a looping liner in the center a bassist the dorms now hit safely an eighteen of his last 20 [Music] he came in hitting 312 leading hitter on the club that'll bring up Bobby Bonds who's a hit safely in 7 out of 8 and 10 out of his last 12 in limited play be batting 333 for the year in this series the veteran outfielder is one for six [Music] the quarter Jimmy Davila is apologizing to the press row here because the lineup that I got off the walls down there and later stuff of the poodle and was put on the blackboard here had Durham batting fifth and bonds batting fourth throw a will we almost threw it away and luckily Cobell got enough leather on it to slow it down lucky for the Giants that is well you know why don't you model because I made my scorecard in ink well I do that these things happen [Music] so bonds the batter with Dermot first and he's a threat to go but not now what's it has a good move by the way Zod Davis's on deck were in the second inning one hip that belongs to Leon Durham [Music] doesn't take a big lead he's going the throw down will be in time to nailing [Applause] that picture [Music] two four on the play and look where Milton May gets the pitch it's in a perfect spot right up where he wanted where we can release hi and Morgan just put the glove down and let him slide into it that means Leon is now 18 out of 25 and the stolen base department breaking pitches in for a strike to Bobby Bonds [Music] that's a bull's-eye and it's 2 & 2 [Music] hi breaking pitch 3 & 2 [Music] walk out and in with an off-speed breaking pitch [Applause] so two strikeouts for whitson they both been called he did it to Henderson to start the first inning now it's 2 away and brings up Jody Davis [Music] Jody Davis looks at ball one Davis against the league 266 Center two homers 10 RBIs in this series the rookie catcher is two for five and one run batted in and one of his two homers against the Giants the one Oh breaking pitch here boy Woodson I don't remember what I've seen him have that good a breaking pitch in the strike zone well the Sox have got a real kick walk going to Toronto at bat on the 5th the White Sox eight Toronto nothing 1 & 2 the Sox hadn't let that one escape in the opening game maybe going for a sweep today then I'm going to nothing lead early and let it go by Dodgers 3 Cardinals 3 at the end of 2 [Music] fouled off by Jody he tried adding another rise Detroit three Texas nothing at the end before Tigers as I said going for nine in a row [Music] now it's one and two to Davis with nobody on and two down second inning no score ed witson and Randy Mart's [Music] Paul was really hit it was right at him he just had to take a quick half step toward the line and it retires the side no runs and one hit no errors a crutch dealing in nobody love we played to nothing comes nothing [Music] [Music] excuse me yes yes I do I mean a 76 credit card is a good idea for a single girl by not well you could buy tires yes anything you want is yours great of course I think I mean we'll need your real name

people who let their tastes decide pick Pepsi [Music] the yamaha virago with a unique combination of the v-twin engine monoshock suspension the shaft drive it's been a lot easier to want one than to find one [Music] go to the third top of the giant order morgen cabal and Clark homerun mullet are for Milwaukee in the first and so it's now 1 to 100 Waukee versus Minnesota at the end of 1 Matt still lead Cincinnati one to nothing the Reggie pattern 3rd margit looks at ball one he took strike three call to start the game the only strikeout record recorded in the early going by Randy March he's walked three he gonna drive it but it'll be foul down the right side what it left the bat it was foul one and one to go to the third in Atlanta Montreal still leading one to nothing that's Rogers over Mahler in that game [Music] a ball and a strike boy March just gives you that big free easy motion then after he shows you that curve and that pom ball at fastball really looks about a two feet quicker and there was one of them right there one ball two strikes [Music] there's the pom ball he threw it in the dirt all right we're at the top of the hour let's pause quickly here for station identification this is WGN television Chicago America's number one sports station two and two to Morgan off-speed pitch and he's sending it out into shallow center Bobby Bonds will camp under it now and it's one of Oh [Applause] the wind is blowing out here today and when vine started I think he thought he's gonna have to come under the Father that he did then he pulled up and makes the catch why don't we mentioned that Kingman in fact to Stargell all have 11 career grand Slammers now in case the folks are interest would be nationally record is 18 by Willie McCovey and the major league record is 23 by Lou Gehrig bouncer short he's got to circle that one rice to the Cobell [Music] on good fielding plays by the hey-zeus Jack Clark walked in the first he started the parade of three straight walks as it turned out it didn't hurt but when you walk three and then get out of it with no problem you get a little luck too the induced letter to hit into a force play one ball and no strikes [Music] that'll make it to know [Music] see what Jodie's he wants to pitch him away here on two and oh just did slide off the corner three balls and no strikes don't make it a good one on 302 this guy [Music] that's been in a different zone a fastball but he kept it low so it's 3 and 1/2 clerk giant right fielder taps it foul behind the minutes 3 & 2 [Music] I fell behind in three and owlets he can come back and getting a payoff to Clark with two down name region [Music] after those two tape-measure jabbsi hidden here against the wind in the first two games March pitched him carefully in the first inning ended up walking him except for the three Oh low fastball he hasn't really thrown him a pitch that he can handle and another payoff low fastball walked him and that is walk number four by Randy March to go with one strike on and it'll bring up Darrell Evans Devon's also walked in the first inning [Music] [Music] chances are that under that giant Jersey is a howdy-doo t-shirt that's his nickname hey strike so it was well you see television is getting a little older one was hottie duty popular in the fifties one or less of these early fifties [Music] hello Bob Smith type up a little
