everybody and welcome to Comiskey Park I'm Kent Harrelson along with Tom Paciorek is the Sox get ready to take on the Yankees in the rubber match of this three-game set is they took it on the chin last night 10 to 7 but Tom also a couple of memorable things happening here today at Comiskey Park it's the 80th birthday and it's the last time the New York Yankees will ever play a game in old Comiskey Park isn't that amazing they've played hundreds of ball games here hopefully they'll go out on a losing note now today's pitcher Greg Hubert has been just outstanding with consistency all year long but I think a key for Greg is to really establish that breaking ball early in the ball game he's got the great changeup and the outstanding curveball but the Yankees are very good against left-handed pitchers and his opponent today Andy Hawkins he's been struggling he is 1 in 4 yeah he really has scuffled as the plate and he's a good pitcher though they signed him as a free agent New York liked them he had a pretty good year for him last year but he really hasn't gotten his act together yet this year all right Hibbert against Hawkins and Tom we'll be back for the rest of the starting lineups right after this [Music] hi I'm Paul we hope you'll join me next time on the bench and I guess will be one of baseball's best relief pitchers White Sox Bobby things [Applause] [Music]

afternoon's ballgame first for the Sox they've got to keep those three top hitters off the base Kelly sacks and Mattingly very very dangerous the three top hitters in their lineup so it's very important for Hibbert to keep those guys off the sax Hawkins hey Andy Hawkins has really scuffled the first three innings of every ballgame so he's got to keep the Sox down early he's got to get off to a good start this afternoon that Hibbert he's got to have that good curveball and changeup working the Yankees are very tough against left-handed pitchers so far this season so with that in mind let's took a look take a look at the lineups for this afternoon's game first for the Yankees as given by manager the stumper stop Merrill leaning off in centerfield Roberto Kelly netting second second baseman Steve sax Don Mattingly is back in his familiar third spot playing first base cleanup man is the v8 Steve Balboni Jesse Barfield is in right field hitting fifth he's followed by the left fielder Jim Leyritz Mike Flowers is a third basis Bob Garin catches and hits eighth and the ninth place hitter shortstop Alvaro Espinosa pitching for the Yankees right-hander Andy Hawkins he's been scuffling one in four with a 6-4 9er a in 12 starts and he'll be facing this Chicago White Sox lineup given by manager Jeff Torborg being off in centerfield Lance Johnson batting second third baseman Robin Ventura Devon Calderon is the DHS afternoon hitting third man Kido returns to first face hitting fifth he's followed by capture run Scottie Fletcher is the second baseman hitting seven Sammy Sosa and Wright is the eighth place hitter bringing up the rear capitan shortstop Ozzie guillén pitching this afternoon for the Sox Hawks favorite little bulldog Greg ever never 6 and 4 with the RA of two five nine and fourteen starts so far this season some more numbers given up only 79 hits in 19 a third innings 25 walks and 44 strikeouts in Gregg Hibbert in his last start Monday against California he won that game did another outstanding job going eight in the third innings giving up eight hits no runs walking none in striking out four so control is a key factor for a Greg Hilbert success career-wise against the Yankees he's won and over the 372 VRA and that's over nineteen and a third innings the weather in Chicago absolutely perfect for baseball they're blue skies temperature at 66 degrees wind out of the north at 16 sunny and pleasant when out of the North could be a good day for the pitchers that went blowing straight in from centerfield the umpires today at home plate Dale Scott at first base Vic Voltaggio Mike Riley the crew chief is at second and at Chuck Meriwether [Music] defensively for the Sox in the outfield its passcode Johnson and Sosa around the horn Ventura can Fletcher and Kittel and the battery this afternoon of Greg Hobart and rod Kharkov ice there's Hibbert we said early in between the lines he's got to get good command to that changeup and curveball early in the ballgame because the Yankees are a much stronger team against left-handed pitching they led the American League last year 1989 in batting average against lefties look at the crowd sun-drenched out there in center field so Roberto Kelly I'm ready to start things off so here's the hawkster all right thank you very much and once again good afternoon everyone and welcome to the 80th birthday of Comiskey Park and the final time that you will ever see that uniform right there at old Comiskey Park socks coming in with a mark of 45 and 26 one game back a bill today is the Yankees 28 and 44 they are 14 games back in the American League East in last place where here's Kelly he's 2 for 7 in the series takes it up high [Applause] [Music] there's a strike and account evens at one [Applause] feels once just blew this one round away it's outside count two balls in the strike [Applause] daily for homeless 22 RBIs Goodspeed [Music] that's off the plate and the count goes to 3 in one [Applause] assball eight meeting of the year between these two clubs socks holy five two edge [Applause] this is the sixth game played at Comiskey Park Sox won for the first five as you look at the stopper inside corner [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Oh big strikeout here buy a hammer look at it's a fastball he cut it a bit you almost call that a slider running in and down a great pitch it really knocked Roberto Kelly receive last start against the Yankee's was May 30 at d1 working seven the third innings giving up only four hits and two runs walking to striking out three good pitch here's the second baseman Steve sax hitting at 281 a homer 18 RBA I he was two for five yesterday takes it off the plate you know what made that look so bad to the Yankees is that Hibbert worked him away away away and then plus them in on the 3-2 pitch so he really locked Kelly [Applause] now feel straight away a bunch of asides [Applause] actually some more conventional defense that they have seen against any of the club against that nickel defense very often speed on that particular pitch actually we talked about one thing you know for all the fans sitting at home watching you and gotta watch the motion the rhythm and the delivery and the arm speed on hip exchange and if he's got it you sit back and enjoy yourself a good White Sox ballgame that's very true you'll get a lot of ground balls to the left side of the infield when he's hot it's got a piece of it well prior to the game of two people that attended this game and along with two people whose birthday is on July 1st

you're sold by the last graphic good pitch right there named changeup we talked so often at Comiskey Park right here that hitters background that green just doesn't go up there high enough to centerfield if you got a good changeup like Greg Gilbert does it's really tough to pick up rotation on that particular pitch so he could be very effective here in the daytime that's in the right field man that was just yesterday it was going out to right [Applause] [Music] scary right there Sammy looks like he may have overrun this a bit wall came back just a tad he's gonna be fighting that Sun and wind all day long but that's the guy you want out there if you're the white socks here's don mattingly hitting at 2:57 five homers 33 RBIs and he went through the whole month of June without hitting a homerun that really doesn't surprise me just watching him swing the bat these two days he doesn't look like he's trying you don't get you hit home runs when you pull the ball he's trying it's just he's just back getting the job done it's just well I think he look at me looks like he's trying to hit the ball the opposite field you're not gonna hit a whole bunch of homers the other way not died

the kc of his helmet by Jack Morris hopefully he's all right I feel takes a strike [Applause] with the slider right there by Ozzie got Jim severely right here here's odds he making the backhand play and you can see it his right foot sliding because the grass is still a little bit wet after waters the field just prior to the ballgame you see Jessie try to get that left arm through doesn't quite do it nas he sets throws and actually may have helped them because he didn't even step with his left foot as right leg just slid back I may be a new way of innovative way of throwing the ball now you're right that is wrong this is leritz Steph said Jimmy hit his first major league home run yesterday that was in third inning and then in the ninth inning came right back with his second major league home run and they were big league homers - he got every inch of those good curveball well I was talking to stuck marijuana the Mayoress hatchet he said he will go at times behind the plate when he is as good defensively behind the plate as anybody and that of course stuff has been around a long time and that balls hit hard Ozzie [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] I'm now to look back at a glorious memory from Comiskey parks historic past for ten glorious years the Sox Jersey displaying number three was worn by White Sox great Harold Baines the left-handed Sox slugger from Maryland was noticed as a youth by former White Sox owner Bill Veck Harold Baines proved to be one of the finest players ever to play for the White Sox Harold is the all-time home run leader with 186 [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] for the Chicago White Sox he is second and runs batted in with 819 third in doubles and sixth in hits as the Sox fans chanted Harold Harold from the stands Harold Baines delivered he blasted 20 or more home runs a club record during six consecutive White Sox seasons Harold represented the White Sox four times as an American League all-star and twice was named the outstanding American League designated hitter 1987 and 1988 Harold Baines a Comiskey Park legend Danny hitting a 306 eight homers 25 ribbies we have one of the longer singles we have seen this year yesterday get off the top of the wall in right field Karam drive back to Jessie you know them to a single [Music] [Applause] fastball high and the count 1 in 1 Oakland that serrano tied at 1 that's a no top of the third inning California Cleveland tied a to bottomless second must be pitch passable way out in front and it's one and two [Applause] Danny's done against those former mates [Music] two balls two strikes well congratulations to that gentleman right there on such a terrific season Phil Jackson coach to the ball trills they gave all of us here in Chicago we'll get him next year say they had a pretty good draft one yeah they could change it by Andy Hawkins he didn't have that the first time around first time he pitched against the Sox and this is about standing change a good arm action right here seem just turning it over that's the genican Hawkins that we saw the first time yes he was basically a fastball slider pitcher with not overpowering stuff with either one of those pitches they both look the same speed here's Kenny those kiddies homer wine the opener wind a nothing pitch of hi [Applause] the talking with Steve Shane wall marketing director of the balls yesterday and stating the same our employer yeah you like they're cool okay yeah six ten shooting guard great that's awesome they can't get him up for this year though can they but the thing is you know when you and I were coming up if you were 610 you couldn't hardly walk in a straight line screw these guys today just not so much they're getting better to bigger it's just the bigger guys are getting more agile and better sure [Applause] [Music] she puts it right on hand behind them to protect it but who the left hand they're right they're right in that elbow or that I set comes in yellow forearm [Music] the count two balls two strikes to the big man from Gary [Music] [Applause] [Music] just watching the signs of gear [Music] a lot of breaking pitches in the first outing against the Sox and gear has been putting the slider down in the curve Parker's been shaking him off he wants to throw the fastball an indication that he has confidence in it and he feels good yeah he's looks like he's got a little bit more zip on it now upstairs you really can't chase it we said earlier he's a high ball pitcher gets a lot of outs that way like well that's fastball away done yeah he gave a change and Hawkins just looked at it as he strikes it out on the pass ball that's one reason I really enjoy watching the signs of the catcher you especially you can get an indication when he's putting down numbers you can get an indication how the pitcher feels if in fact he shaded the gas but now fast Falls he's going to the breaking ball it does he didn't have a whole bunch of confidence in his fastball and vice versa sure here's Carrick hitting at 278 three homers seven RBIs is a breaking ball [Applause] goes through the heater and account one [Applause] [Music] little cut fastball threaded the needle Garko has been playing great in his last three starts at 417 that's five for 12 two home runs for that time and look out [Music] hiren thinks the ball hit his bat Dale Scott says no maybe this hmm Jan himself right there Spinoza fighting the Sun makes the catch and never retire the side so both pictures have retired the side in order in the first two innings and four to no score

they like that experience over there in New York really hadn't paid off for them recently so now we're moving there's the funny things that have happened in base couple of seasons say that unusual things we saw Club assemble this year [Music] taking to win the American League West in Kansas City royal twenty-three million dollar payroll in last year we saw Baltimore eole team relatively lured down and the pay scale carry their season down to the last two days of the year before throttle betta mouth and this year we're seeing in 1990 Chicago White Sox with a young the youngest team in the major leagues and they're battling it out for first place against the high price open age so some unusual things happen that's Isaac 200 you gotta mention the word hungry who's hungry is for that title well you know when you're talking about the size of a rope go it just goes to show that there's some good decisions being made at management level and all of a sudden you can have because it from a business standpoint that's the optimum the optimum would be what to have the lowest-paid club with the best record in baseball now that yeah it's the optimal rocks two days ago had that yeah that's amazing it'll both Louis pay plus and the best record of course the better you get into more games you win in future years that just turns around guys gotta start making a little bit more money oh yeah sure you can't have urine in your out you will never have that two years in a row never no no - a no-account - garan wife said about Kansas City from the get-go if George Brett did not have a good year a great year typically George Breton in his prime Kansas City wouldn't be a factor there's very nice dr. Frankenstein he created this monster over here that's outside the count 3 you know here it upset with himself I think Kansas City to win the West [Music] pitching staff that they have some could equal the one and what a job he and his staff have done this year I'll tell you they have been consistent they have been consistent the manager and the coaches the players come to the park every day they know what their role is they know what they're gonna do and that's boy that's the best thing you can give a ballpark it's Australia well the one thing that I've noticed about Jeff and the coaching step that I absolutely love is when a player messes up they get to him immediately as soon as that half inning is over with they tell him what they did wrong and oh hey don't do it again there strike two and it really works never just let the whole thing blow over even with veteran teaming and never put even pointed out never even pointed out the next day and that doesn't work during the course of the season they will continue to make that same mistake white sox players don't make the same mistake [Music] you know very often twice except on the basement [Laughter] runnin bunch of Jesse's once they get on first base uh-huh get the last two off the stopping but it's work broken bat Ventura [Applause] so nice rug Greg Hibbert how effective he has been so far retiring the first eight he is one strike out one flyout seven ground balls and six of them have been to the left side of the infield so when you see that you know that Greg Harris having a good day because they're trying to pull that off speed pitch plus the fact it and he is he was swinging on Garrett I like that he came back he was three and one on Kelly he came back and struck him out thank you [Music] nothing across and after two and a half no score [Applause] because Sean Pertwee ona the Midwest largest volume Toyota dealer has exceeded every Toyota quota with three times the volume and three times the inventory Sean Burton can now offer you maximum incentive savings on Toyota's three best sellers with up to 1200 hours in factory incentives on new Toyota Camrys factory incentives of up to 1200 hours on Toyota Tercel and up to $1,200 in factory incentives on Toyota Corollas at Schaumburg Toyota Toyota's factory incentive headquarters 875 west Gulf Road hurry sale ends August 2nd stay tuned for more hot summertime fun in August on sports channel the last season ever at Comiskey Park is winding down and the White Sox are gearing up for the pennant race against the likes of Milwaukee Kansas City Texas Toronto Oakland California and Minnesota follow today's hottest tennis players at the oldest professional tennis tournament in the country it's the u.s.

Sammon and quickly the cow went to what I started to say earlier though hawk an interesting comparison between the two pitchers Gregg Hubert obviously a lowball pitcher has been getting nothing but ground ball outs he has the one strike out one flyout by Steve sax last seven guys have been retired on ground balls to the left side of the infield and on the other hand Andy Hawkins hit for that in the second as a fastball up and away he has two strikeouts and everybody else has been retired in the air by fly balls nothing hit really hard except for Ventura so he's a high ball pitcher that fastball fouled back Jermaine's wanted to my ball pitch against a ground ball pitcher to ground ball pitcher right here Hibbert is doing much better er a spits a lot more innings giving up less hits and look at so many more innings pitched leads and walks there neither one of them was a strikeout pitcher look at the opponent's batting average 300 against Hawkins only 231 against Greg breaking ball looped out in the short drive field comes Jesse flip in there another fly ball off for Hawkins he is a flyball pitcher Toronto is just taking a 2-1 lead over Oakland in the bottom of the fifth inning a triple by mini League scored Pat borders situati one in third and nobody out [Music] new bluebirds here's Ozzie Accio for seven in the first two games different auntie Hawkins he has a lot of confidence in that number one he and what they'll tell you his besides velocity he has a lot of confidence on his location by far the best stuff that I've seen him have since he's been an American League you can see a remarkable difference [Applause] last restarts he's been talking to 7 5 e IRA but no decisions get no decisions in the month of June [Applause] [Music] [Applause] here's one one fastball keep this little serving of elements outside all tailed away went down a bit turned it over on we've got a few more pictures looks like the work with last time we saw him he threw a cut fastball in a slider knows it it's hard he had a right to know and that lid for the sacks another 1-2-3 inning the sweet aroma Hawkins and after three no score [Music] get the summer savings advantage

our busy camper out there [Music] pretty routine for the Asura okay what Greg Huber's really got an advantage don't you think mark having those two guys on the left side of the infield when you know he's gonna face a lot of right-handed hitters and they're gonna unit vertically try and pull him they won't be effective doing it but Ozzie and Robin Ventura on that left side the infield have just been terrific I think it's the toughest side left side of the infield in the American I don't know about the nationally but in the American League in my opinion that's the toughest side [Music] and with Gregg here but of course taking advantage of that being a lowball pitcher he appreciates it as much as anyone I would say the next toughest would be Fernandez and yeah I don't think Kelly has range is Robin and for that reason Esther he's not thinking hours is he Oh stronger he means hopper to get it through sure two balls no strikes two sacks glad to write I can't think of anybody else you know in that league on this way that's broken bat right side let me finish that's the good pitching Steve sax trying to go the other way but it's nubs it off the end of the bat so he's over to boy junior Felix came through with a single the score Manny Lee so the Blue Jays 2 runs the end man on first one out as they lead the A's 3 2 1 bottom of the fifth all right [Applause] 90 on a little half

one around to the left breaks it up hi [Applause] by the 4th inning nobody has reached baseship mercy [Music] with the unusual both pitchers are in a pretty good groove though no doubt about it a good routine yes very much so they're not thinking a whole lot don't give the hitters a whole lot of time either plus their defense has been very good too they're on their toes [Music] you'll see some sparkling defensive plays from that guy out there is working quickly as you look at him Alito's brother ports on him first few times that he puts for the Yankees issue he was out unfortunately for him and the Yanks injured his arm and they don't know when he's coming back here's Robin takes the fastball strike Robin hit a rocket out to right field at bar field made a nice play going away from home

outstanding arm action on the change-up sometimes it's not the greatest of location but the arm speed is so good and the change of speeds just excellent good call right there when up because even if you do as you mentioned make the mistake in location if you've got that good arm action like Hibbert has had thus far you can get by with some mistakes sure that changeup makes that fastball look a little bit quicker to about a foot and a half oh yeah where that comes that give my good arm action get Bob going right my goodness they're hand our fans just shine they are outstanding this guy will not be denied and get some high five do you deserve a buddy I don't like that hat is worth no but look at these hands ha piece of cake winds swirling around home plate a good spot right here just misses the outside corner count two and one oh there's a [Music] right colored shirt out there behind the background bar feels had a couple of instances in this series as far where he has had a problem with somebody moving around back that fastball completely full and Jesse was sitting on that local right there and got the Express yeah he did it was way late [Applause] you can heat him up right here you got two options away Hitler's been throwing heat him up and inside a little bit I'll give him that real good motion with the change to options right here they got him out inside last time with a hard slider in on the hands broke is bad that's the whole thing change yeah there's that good change and as we keep pointing out it wasn't in a good location the pitch was up and away but he had Jesse completely fooled by the armed action the speed of the pitches of maximum importance right here especially when you set him up with the fastball in previous pitches actually he missed that pitch with the end of his bat and he made contact would have been another off the end [Music] here's leritz he bounced two ideas first bill Jimmy just 26 years old we're talking about him earlier this thumb Merrill says that he's just not durable behind the plate but when he is back here he's as good as anybody said if he plays three or four or five days early as the tendency to get hurt and

Sox because you have to save with the Sox are a lowball hitting team worn away hitting team yeah [Music] we got a major league team is a good [Music] [Applause] where the power [Applause] and inside here [Applause] [Music] so go ahead pass ball again here I'm trying to get in with Ovaltine his time talk about he's got much more velocity than this afternoon than he did at Yankee Stadium when we first saw him pitch there it is up and away and he passed or watch that pitch down a bit yeah again that's the camera [Applause] [Music] Aaron didn't pick it up real quick he thought the ball was out of play and then try to figure right he's still tonight he's living inside on pasqua you can see it coming in as far as Hawking so you know if we mentioned back in the second inning in the opiates Garan was putting down two three and the two and we changed and he wanted that number one well that'll tell you a lot about how he feels that day he obviously believes in that fastball this afternoon no doubt about it well mark Connors is the bullpen coach over here and I think one of the more stupid pitching minds [Music] [Applause] left side jimmy'll a fritz and of course mark Connors Billy Connors the pitching coach but I'm sure they confirm Mike Connors is a real great believer in the fastball hi Gabby I was fortunate enough to be on a team and he was a coach on when I was a rookie the Kansas City is kitty steps in he says in his opinion Gabi's opinion the secret to being a good catcher was taking a guy's second best pitch in making it an out if you could take a second best pitch in making a now pitch then you're doing your job as a catcher now what he's saying by that is you're you're taking a guy's best pitch because it's hard to get by on one and you're giving him two alternatives there's a breaking ball one of the few he's thrown and the count 1 and 1 another thing that he has changed changing speeds a lot better he was pretty much one speedy feeling hard fastball hard slide and they really weren't that hard now he's got a tone somewhat of a slurve and a changeup this afternoon jammed in with an inside fastball hours coming back yeah [Applause] well for my hitting standpoint happy this game is going a little too quick is nano from a hitting standpoint playing a game like this I just take all the time the plate I'd get tiny Hawkins out of it irrelevant that routine he's then yeah he's in that quick rhythm he wants he's getting the ball and he's throwing it much like Greg Hubert they're both working very quickly and their defensive team obviously very sharp also but they haven't had to make any great plays yet fastball Bible we'll play that actually Barfield made on Ventura how many calls have been hard in this game it was probably it enters the to heart 20 skull together with semi-hard Marvel has hit the ball fairly hard most of them up in the bowl breaking ball it was a strike we'll take it and the cap doing one damn sucks okay I blew it and let's go about it too payback [Music] [Applause] more gas Darren's setting up and when he's setting up in the left handed batter's box and the umpires staying right there the Dale Scott when Darren who's way out when he wants that pitch way outside he's staying right where he is so he's pretty much blocked out of the outside corner [Applause] [Music] we're seeing a nice a nice thing here as far as the art of pitching and catching today we're seeing two batteries that are really in sync together they're working as a tandem we're two out [Applause] and the Yankees don't like it those are fast water really came riding in on Kharkov ice let's take a look at it balls running in running inside in and off the plate [Applause] you're saying if we were I'm firing you'd call that a strike I run it well you maybe you can't give him a couple inches on the inside give him three inches inside after giving him three inches on the outside well how big is that plate now they've got something good going out there today out of running my ball gets away from here and here goes wicked answer it'll be a pass ball [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] what an effort II game yeah look at this pitch it's a fastball just misses it this misses it and kharkov ice take your hat off to car co - we got a good jump made at the second base there are some guys not budged off of first not our guys no no that's not this thing maybe probably tried for third on that mean some of them come on Scottie hello 21 account [Music] [Applause] broken bat single Scottie come on scooter you can do it that's what players say themselves on the bed situations like this look one over second Oh [Music] doing one account [Applause] he's hitting 476 twenty-one against the Yankee's is easy with the homer and for our VI through seven for his last 16 three hits yesterday [Applause] [Music] [Applause] there's gone rude [Applause] [Applause] like this first time [Music] which [Music] [Music] breaking ball [Applause] the rhythm Andy Hawkins right there working from the stretch for the first time this afternoon and good job by Scottie cruncher he's sitting on fastball and he didn't pull you at the breaking ball didn't get himself out runners at first and second now for Sammy he knew his last 23 he for Sammy's the way out [Applause] with that pitch fastball up and away [Applause] make it come down you hit it up the middle and get that face it [Applause] particularly careful [Music] [Applause] there's Kharkov Isis second watch it first [Applause] lays off the high gas and the count evens at one [Applause] when the day comes about man one-year-old Sammy Sosa this powe so often learns how to lay off the high fastball up out of the strike zone you're gonna see one type of an offensive player [Applause] good one come down here soonerlater Sammy that arkantos he wants to fix a me upstairs [Music] [Applause] makes again now those for the sax nothing across no hits no errors Kepler

fifty nine pitches thirty seven strikes left side Ventura [Applause] [Music] sixteen in a row retired [Music] here's the catch of Bob Garrett he also bounced out to Ventura from for ground balls to Robin boertie Ozzie two balls it out the infield good change excellent [Applause] to come in on him with a slider we did get in quiet deep enough that was danger zone right there count-o into that's a hanger for example you see that ball hits straight back so it's two strikes so was Hitler yeah okay well you get away with a lot of hanging pitches today that ball Sammy Sosa that's a upper tank shot yesterday then Tara backs out as a tough playful Robin going to be a base hit [Applause] the play certainly Robin could have made but it would a tough one right here watch the tops minutes no to curveball pretty good I'll tell you what wall went down he could have wasted a little bit better than that boy that ball had some bodacious topspin okay I just kind of eats Robin up right there the only way he'd had a chance at that one of Peters been able to charge it just a bit get it on the short hop get that in between hop those are tough those are ones that eat you up I don't think that was that was an either/or situation I don't think in this particular scenario some wrong without Garrett down there and a top flight of corn to make going out they got to give him an arrow [Music] of course the way things go today you know there was did you see the era on the replay that Cal Ripken jr. made know they recall it was an era it was an era and evidently the Cal Ripken senior Frank Robinson all the guys with the Baltimore Club put some much heat on the official scorer that after reviewing the tapes again he changed it around but it was it was just a flat error took his eye off the ball the ball hit him on the side of the glove bounce story they were under advanced that's an era sure there's Espinoza steps in so we'll see how Hibbert reacts working from the stretch [Music] first hit of the ball game right there [Applause] to make the play with a glove what an excellent effort and there's a base [Music] [Applause] by hitting a ride [Applause] go to infield singles by the Yankees here in the sixth inning Hibbert knows Jam now you see this hit-and-run Espinoza handles the bat very well as he coming across just couldn't make it he's trying to flip it with his glove that's the kind of presence on the field Ozzy has he knows he can't get up and throw anybody I like he tries to flip it behind him can't make the play so Roberto Kelly very dangerous hitter who runners on and only one out here in the sixth inning no off the plate to count one two no good fastball by Hibbert Kelly with runners in scoring position hitting 259 no homers 16 RBIs there's that good chance good motion can hit he's on top of ball and two strikes there's a change again while trying to stay back on it [Music] on deck hitter second baseman Steve sax [Applause] jammed him ate him up infield fly rule in effect this kettle makes a catch number two [Applause] with that fits with that good changeup down and away so there's two out Steve sax ever a dangerous out is the hitter now sexy runners in scoring position he's hitting 255 I agree with you here respect certainly he's not the most fearsome hitter in his line but in the situation such as this indeed he is a tough about if the balls hit in the left or right Sox have a good opportunity to make a play on Garen who doesn't have a whole bunch of speed even with a two-hour situation [Music] shorten up a few steps and they would normally because of the wind factor Sammy very short might feel and that is sex best rope line drive for right team do that a mentor times during the season there you see that defense there straightaway and fairly short mask will playing a little deeper in that field with bass ball striking account evens at one [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] dandy [Applause] Steve sax bat is not long enough as you can see he misses it [Music] two and two [Music] yeah [Applause] Oh [Music] [Applause] [Music] one day July 30th an American movie classics Norma Desmond used to be in silent

locating of the fastball has just been as nice as we have seen from anyone all year Kenny Oprah - he struck out he popped the third [Music] more intent on stealing second with one out stealing a base

one account [Applause] [Music] [Applause] no chance [Applause] [Music] once he saw the quick release right there by Hawkins Hawkins really sped up his delivery right there and that's when he has got to say I retreat and right there that's what really threw him out it wasn't actually the pitch out boy that for all you young pitchers out there is the way to do it is the way to do it as far you see the little glide step as Kitty can't get it 1 & 2 by Hawkins as far as execution but Tom he may have given away just a little bit but still the point is you got unload in a hurry to home plate and

[Applause] yeah that's food mat notes is the only other catcher available right now back from the eighth inning already you got to go for it we got a situation for you if it's SkyDome Oakland southpaw Rick Honeycutt has come on the situation is this no runs in bases-loaded nobody out I like that situation [Applause] [Applause] shortly by Garen Ventura Cunningham job done if Barry if Barry is coming in hard they get a good chance of getting gear in a second yeah no doubt about not a too particularly good of a little bit harder and Jones would had an easy play at second days six breasts vanozza and Scott ridicu [Applause] if he hits him got a gift these two guys Roberto Kelly and Steve sax they'll have chances to drive in this all-important run [Applause] Kelly over three struck out bounced too short and he's popped the first [Applause] [Music] [Applause] breaking ball low and away [Applause] [Applause] got the fastball really run him on and the count evens at one no runs four hits for the Yankees no runs no hits for the Sox in the top of the eighth inning [Applause] a piggy is joined again school [Applause] [Music] hammered foul upper deck and John's on top the ball and two strikes [Applause] [Music] oh you got that right cowboy here's a fastball he just buries it upstairs and Kelly goes fishing can't catch up with it so Steve stacks will have another RBI opportunity it's easy for me to say Steve sax that is [Applause] [Music] sit over here this is a guy we the right-handed hitters was that was against Hibbert and he is a tough out breaking ball going away [Applause] he likes to catch a little ricotta side 4:7 half no score [Applause] USA nothing beats my wave got me [Music] [Music] you see well Andy Hawkins got himself a no-hitter going [Music] a couple of plays that could have been in Ventura back in the first inning hit a shot [Music] race back going away from home play reached up and made the catch on and then sammy sosa with two men on Hawkins had walked Kharkov Iceland Fletcher he hammered one a towering fly ball in the left field [Applause] it was definitely upper deck and the wind brought it back in and lay firts right against the fence they indeed have changed that air is an air on Ventura [Music] this car breaking ball outside has popped the short and he's walked and flowers playing even with the bag at third they know Karkos an excellent drag Bunner [Applause] another situation up at SkyDome sacrifice fly by Fred McGriff score Tony Fernandes Meno first a second one out Blue Jays for athletics three ooh Gallade call by Dale Scott in the count 1 & 2 [Applause] where he said box it up right side sacks [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Oh Scottie take him out of here yeah [Applause] [Music] is flied to right his walk [Applause] [Music] somebody's gonna have to do something here quick of course the White Sox pitchers have been up to the task and matching Hawkins almost fits for pitch and is she looking to the Yankee knife Mattingly Balboni and Barfield scheduled hitter Scottie takes a strike [Applause] Oh [Applause] [Music] I can't tell I'm looking for the bra staff No [Music] [Applause] a great catch by our lady fans down there [Applause] no balls two strikes he is in the left handed batter's box [Applause] [Music] where he's setting up for some of these pitches anyone [Music] very definitive graphic in has moved yeah if he hits the target you have to dive to hit the ball - magic account 2 & 2 [Applause] hankies didn't get a base hit off here but he'd retired the first 16 Yankees in order they sit off them to infield singles in the 6th inning that's why me another nice catch is you look at the on-deck hitter Sammy Sosa [Music] [Applause] [Applause] breaking ball pops him up right side sacks once again fighting that side [Applause] so with two outs here in the eighth is up to Sammy glad to write new we mentioned he just missed one backing tripping [Applause] and this by far [Applause] five or six ball games is by the most dangerous Sammy has been at the plate giorgia yes [Applause] right away spread out breaking balls right [Applause] [Music] that's tough to reach that one [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] now right there those last two pizzas are impossible to hit they're not no one can hit those pitches yet they make a career Hypno's you'd hit zero areas farther out [Applause] I wanted to the count say next next time Garen is going to set up in the on-deck circle gonna hit his target [Applause] now picks it up time disturbed with the car yeah I'm sorry that is sammy sosa created breaking up the no-hitter it's a breaking ball hanging inside you can see flowers not really guarding the line yeah they just let the ball eat them up right there lilian not as difficult a play as I thought but watch this gun that flowers has mine [Applause] to get the head but this dust there's Boies he's changed it now that's the correct call Bob much as I want to see Sammy get that here you can it's a flat booth we let that ball play him a bit there's no question about that Heather tremendous topspin on that ball so runner on let's see if Sammy's got in store for us I got to think with Lance the hitter with two outs he try and steal this base Lance Johnson on deck he gets thrown out so what you still have Ozzy and Lance to lead things off next inning go for it Aaron has shown us some outstanding throwing arm today 13 423 I see very unlikely today to be able to drive in that runner from first base right now go for a leap it's down on cow [Applause] anticipation [Applause] definitely in this situation Darren is looking for the fastball away with D in the number one they're pitching it playing him away so he might as well pitch him that way too with the fastball and of course when you throw the fastball away it really helps the catcher's chances were throwing out a fast pace still Sammy Sosa it does but he has been staying he has has been his pitch today the number one he has spotted that pitch extremely well my theory Minds me a little bit the way his pitching Zephyr yeah not the same velocity got through the ball Harvick with more velocity [Music] he had a chant go yeah that would have been I think sandy would have made it up and in fastball to tough pitch to throw on for Garin [Applause] and probably in and out of the strike zone too I see having a little bit of difficulty right now getting the head of the bat out like he was early on Ozzie is bounced to short behind the left over to open 9 in this series and the counter ball and two strikes oh I'd like to see a gapper right now looking at meal but if you leave my video there yeah I'm just looking right out there trying to do by say bar filled [Music] room abundance Sammy get on his horse and run forever and he was all [Applause] [Applause] you see top of the ninth-inning SkyDome must be killed [Music] run great job come on hanky [Music] boss winner big horse you earn your money [Applause] Oh Sammy no chance right here but it's at [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] just a tad [Music] [Applause] [Music] inside fastball hopes up were on Garen too great to at great speed at second [Applause] no score bottom of the eighth-inning Sammy Sosa's so much fun out there he's cheerleading Faraz he at second base clapping his hands wanting to get things going he's checking those outfielders like he's described as a panther just stop it here comes Lance glances popped away he's passed the second the fourth inning he's bounced a second the sixth inning and whipping back you're right you call you knew it all of them Lance has to do is get that big hit they're playing them basically the same way they did Ozzy out in the outfield big gap between Barfield and Kelly now Kelly moves a little bit over toward straightaway centerfield well that's a roof [Applause] that's off the plate Goodspeed board and Sousa and Guillen [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] girls encounter a [Applause] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] let's see what he's gonna do right here if he's just gonna stay out there and so they Dale's got a piece of his mind dr. situation no hitter going here in need stuff might be just trying to wait no he's not either [Music] what No that's the wrong time to start getting on an umpire's case [Music] [Applause] Robin Ventura Robins had a couple decent balance good it back [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Varanasi at second Lancet first that's a love [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] third base the first two games of this year [Applause] [Music] [Applause] he was bouncing his head was bouncing the whole time he was at his heels [Applause] one himself Veronica great break for the White Sox oh my now LaRon takes it off the plate socks with three runs or no yes there's something saying right here possibly something you don't see you the hole but you know [Music] my five watts didn't mouth Hawkins today [Applause] whereas he just did not get the proper jump now the wind is really playing tricks out there right how about this yes socks can move back in the first place [Applause] to the score just posted all aboard Blue Jays over the A's four to three this all started with two out on a great at-bat by Sammy Sosa getting down in the count quickly no oh and two as lifted in the right jesse is there fighting that way and a sign [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] merci quit Andy Hawkins needs right now is a little mercy he delivers the fastball up and away at Cal girl hits what appears to be a routine fighter right here's Jesse Barfield battling the wind and the Sun loses it [Applause] [Music] a nine White Sox lead it for zip and password [Music] Daniel for three thanks to strike they off do you remember when this inning started so harmlessly the first two guys made routine outs 'if I've set this whole thing up a couple walks [Music] Oh to count the salmon Ralpha back before he battling to the 2-2 count and every nice on there three eras of sinning for the Yankees to go along with two walks and the Sox lead it four zip [Applause] four hits three errors for the Yankees four runs no hits one error for the south outside one thing in defense of you've been out there and I have been off here in this field on days like this when you just pray they didn't hit it to you that's right yeah you're right just they got there and pray they didn't get it to you son didn't win that's off the plate on account Jesse had a good beat on that fall he was right there I was sending them right into that big ball of fire out there in the sky no clouds to help you out today and Leyritz that paul just carried a little bit farther than mad because everything had been that ball shot out there to left field pretty good almost to the warning track two and two seems like the fans now are pulling for Hawkins to get the no-hitter because the Sox have the four to nothing lead that's exactly right how about this for a little bit of irony how about the 80th birthday of Comiskey Park the last time the New York Yankees will ever play a game here seeing a no-hitter thrown in that game the Yankees loser [Applause] names flyer that's why it's just the greatest game and the vulture as a talk sir is he around again can you believe Barry Julie's around again the ten-in-one he's a bigot hold on whooping down he's gonna swoop down hopefully oh mercy jam to pop him up that would be caught by us makes the catch but not before the Sox came up with four eyes [Applause] [Music] for zip with no hits [Music] fast feet and a big heart because stock prices soared Monday to their highest level since last autumn while analysts predicted the market may find sports right you can't just watch the game you got to completely absorb it every play every pitch every strike in this town Chicago's brand of theater is like [Music] get it straight from the heart of the city the Chicago sun-times Chicago's number one selling newspaper and in case you just tuned in has we'll get some defensive changes Gallagher moves into left field in place of pasqua and a new pitcher Scott radensky coming in to face Mattingly here's the story in case you just joined us the Sox coming up with four runs on no hits in the eighth inning to break the scoreless tie three errors committed by the Yankees so the totals on the board for the Yankees no runs on four hits three errors for the Sox four runs on no hits and one error [Applause] I was talking with some Merrill and Mark Connors and mark hill after the game last evening the one guy they were just absolutely raving about in this ball club there's a 22 year old left-hander out there [Applause] I guess they tried everything they could talk to the Yankees into trying to get down and give them give the Sox anything they wanted to get renewals you get it yeah [Applause] that's it hard in the center feel Lance's there knotting leaned out over four [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] still can't believe it [Applause] there's a man who has just placed himself a no-hitter he's down for zip or you know Frank he's in the swamp now he gets credit for a no-hitter for this right move eight innings he kept right sure okay make sure I'm sure Boni they say the last I know the Ken Johnson pitched a no-hitter or Houston and was beaten one nothing right and has happened several times in baseball's history and why look out 1 & 2 I feel having a problem that's all thank you watch out for placing God remains one or two well it goes to show you when you get good pitching on your side and you make the plays defensively anything can happen good grief I still can't get over this hmm Jambi made him up Ventura bottles take apply the second arrow Vaman just flat left that ball playing right there yeah looked like he thought that ball was hit harder than it actually was so Balboni gets first base there's one out Barfield will be the hitter let's look at the replay he gets jammed with the fastball look at her instead of coming forward to meet it on the short hop Robin waited back something he hasn't done all year waited back let the ball play him and so he has his second error on the afternoon so Wayne Tolleson comes in to run for Balboni Barfield the hitter he has one hit this afternoon one for three is solid single in the seventh inning so one out runner on [Applause] Jessi's bounced to short struck out and singled sharply to left takes it low off the plate [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] that's play [Applause] can't ball and two strikes to Jesse Barfield [Applause] Andy Hawkins there were four unearned runs on no hits in eight innings bullet ridden down the hands of Jesse [Applause] Lyons playing behind Collison this could be [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] I've always loved watching baseball nothing besides cold coke at Comiskey Park but being from a family of centers I was never too good at playing baseball [Applause] you could get hurt trying to catch a curb this way kids get White Sox baseball cards at the July 29th Sox Brewers game and here are the socks on all news 67 the last season in the historic Comiskey Park years from now you'll say you were there when the standpoint of how well you pitched a no-hitter and you lose it for nothing your feelings as you went into that eighth inning ballgame I don't how long we'd be out there and not just that I wanted to hold him give us a chance and once you know the wind and it's kind of ironic the way it turned out it's a tough outfield out there right now the winds blowing in hardness playing all kinds of tricks with the ball and has a tough play cuts up a couple of plays out there and just didn't go our way but the guys are giving their best and we're all giving her best when it's done just didn't work out I could the rear I could read there is the frustration in your body when you walked off the field I know it's very tough not happened I've given up a hit and walk off and know you're down four to nothing I'll tell you what is really tough to fill a no-hitter and get B I don't know if too many instances where I've seen that happen three well and I feel good about my own performance today we're doing okay I think you're gonna be alright we just need to just keep her heads up and stay with it a one ball that was hit hard it looked like it was gonna be a base hit was the ball hit my Sammy Sosa in the 5th inning and the wind kept that ball in the ballpark and that was really the only quote that was the closest thing to a base hit not a doubt he got all that ball any other night any other nights we played here in that balls and upper deck easy so I went help me out there and it saved me three runs and a hit right away you know ironically eighty years ago this ballpark was open then there was a no-hitter pitched in this ballpark and the pitcher lost it was all right Maryana it's a little history coming back to haunt you with it yeah I tell you that's that's boy the years going right now I'm this kind of par for the course but we're gonna grind it out I've got a long ways to go we can still make a success out of it the way you've struggled the first part of the season but the last four or five times out of the mound you have pitched spectacular baseball he will know the loss and no-hitter etc you've got to be very happy the way you've been pitching well thank you Tom I appreciate it it was kind of a struggle early but I could have won my last four starts I think I feel I feel very confident about the way I'm throwing the ball right now biggest thing is this carried over five days from now I keep it going I think you probably give up one base hit and take a win wouldn't you without a doubt go good luck keep kissing the same way and you know Andy Hawkins a no-hitter today four to nothing a loss a very tough loss for him a very tough loss for the Yankees and a piece of history made here at Comiskey Park all right let's go back up
