As we're getting ready for that, we'll point out that the first 00:01:43.709 --> 00:01:47.837 game today matched Houston and Ohio State, the defending Titleist here at 00:01:47.870 --> 00:01:53.165 Omaha and Houston won it 7 to 6 to send the Buckeyes back home.

And Oklahoma State last year's runner up, eliminated 00:02:01.709 --> 00:02:09.416 the game concluded just ahead of ours. Stanford defeated Auburn 6 to 3. 00:02:09.449 --> 00:02:17.449 Ok. 00:02:18.558 --> 00:02:26.558 Again, there you color guard out in center field. 00:02:30.669 --> 00:02:34.047 I'm sure you can hear in the background. Public address announcer here at 00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:38.286 Johnny Rosenblatt Stadium, well known Midwestern sportscaster, Jack Payne 00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:46.319 of, wow. Now our national anthem, 00:04:40.338 --> 00:04:44.866 nice hand for a young lady. I understand the local beauty queen who sang 00:04:44.899 --> 00:04:49.796 the national anthem just about ready to get things underway here in what 00:04:49.829 --> 00:04:55.176 is a officially, uh designated game number eight, Boston College versus 00:04:55.209 --> 00:04:58.786 Arizona State and the Sun Devils, as we mentioned, are the visiting team 00:04:58.819 --> 00:05:03.455 in this contest. The Eagles, the home team Arizona State will be occupying 00:05:03.488 --> 00:05:08.137 the booth or the, uh, dugout down along the first base sign in Boston 00:05:08.170 --> 00:05:14.567 College at, uh, the third day sign. 00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:18.916 Umpires for tonight's game are Bill mckinley of the American League behind 00:05:18.949 --> 00:05:25.776 the plate. Henry Roundtree at first Don for others. That, uh, second base 00:05:25.809 --> 00:05:28.536 and Joe Stanning 00:05:28.569 --> 00:05:33.447 that sorry four man umpiring team for the night games here and a major 00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:38.976 league umpire behind the plate in each of the evening contests. 00:05:39.009 --> 00:05:43.526 Our western athletic conference umpire from Chandler Mac Dawsey has, uh, 00:05:43.559 --> 00:05:47.245 been working his share of games. He was the first base umpire in the game 00:05:47.278 --> 00:05:55.278 which preceded this contest. 00:05:55.738 --> 00:05:58.586 Little housekeeping here in the booth for a moment as we get ready to get 00:05:58.619 --> 00:06:03.776 underway and, uh, for Arizona State to lead it off will be Fred Nelson. 00:06:03.809 --> 00:06:08.586 Bob Conley completing his warm up pitches for Boston College. Conley. A 00:06:08.619 --> 00:06:13.106 left hander is a 20 year old sophomore from Lexington, Massachusetts. 61, 00:06:13.139 --> 00:06:17.616 100 and 90 has pitched but 18 innings prior to this contest giving up six 00:06:17.649 --> 00:06:22.026 hits, 10 runs, eight of them earned for his even the four earned run 00:06:22.059 --> 00:06:26.476 average. He's walked 12, struck out 14 00:06:26.509 --> 00:06:30.586 and he'll face Freddie Nelson who was one of the hitting stars for Arizona 00:06:30.619 --> 00:06:35.366 State last night, Fred with a 3, 14 batting average of two for four drove 00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:38.567 in the go ahead run 00:06:38.600 --> 00:06:42.467 and the Sun Devils opener against Oklahoma State Nelson to be followed by 00:06:42.500 --> 00:06:46.265 Scott Reed. Then Ralph Carpenter, the first three sun double hitters up on 00:06:46.298 --> 00:06:51.296 the mound, the left hander looking in for a sign from his catcher Bob Marr 00:06:51.329 --> 00:06:54.366 and here's Conley's first delivery to Nelson right handed hitter against 00:06:54.399 --> 00:06:58.455 the left hander. Pours in a fastball knee high for a call strike and the 00:06:58.488 --> 00:07:04.745 action is underway here in game eight of the college World Series for the 00:07:04.778 --> 00:07:10.476 national collegiate Athletic Association baseball championship. Nothing 00:07:10.509 --> 00:07:13.906 little guy. 59 chokes up on the handle of the bat takes the next pitch 00:07:13.939 --> 00:07:18.955 outside. Can even at one and one. 00:07:18.988 --> 00:07:22.836 Arizona state, the winner of the national championship here two years ago 00:07:22.869 --> 00:07:27.346 in 1965 back to give it another try. The third appearance here for the Sun 00:07:27.379 --> 00:07:32.305 Devils swing and a foul back to the screen by Nelson. We asked Fred what 00:07:32.338 --> 00:07:35.426 he does to compensate for his lack of size when he gets up there to the 00:07:35.459 --> 00:07:40.276 plate and for our tape recorder, he had this reply. Well, I just try and 00:07:40.309 --> 00:07:45.036 hit the ball where it's pitched to the best I can. And, uh, Coach Winkles 00:07:45.069 --> 00:07:49.075 really gets on me when I hit the ball in the air because anything I hit in 00:07:49.108 --> 00:07:52.877 the air is gonna be an out because I'm not strong enough to hit it over 00:07:52.910 --> 00:07:56.546 anybody's head. So he just wants me to hit the ball on the ground and run 00:07:56.579 --> 00:08:01.526 like heck, there's brother's that and he's taking another ball and it's a 00:08:01.559 --> 00:08:05.276 two ball, two strike count to the Sun Devils second baseman and leadoff 00:08:05.309 --> 00:08:08.937 hitter here in tonight's contest in Omaha. The 22 pitch on the way 00:08:08.970 --> 00:08:15.236 fastball is inside and the count has gone full three and two young Fred 00:08:15.269 --> 00:08:19.895 has drawn 37 bases on balls in the season struck out last night one time, 00:08:19.928 --> 00:08:22.536 although he went two for four in a fine play performance and it was only 00:08:22.569 --> 00:08:28.217 his 15, uh, 15th strikeout of the season as he went down swinging at a 00:08:28.250 --> 00:08:32.885 third one. Here's the 32 delivery inside and Nelson draws his 38th base on 00:08:32.918 --> 00:08:36.586 balls of the season and the Sun Devil leadoff hitter is on base with Scott 00:08:36.619 --> 00:08:40.515 Reed who last night tied a college world series record by hitting two home 00:08:40.548 --> 00:08:45.297 runs in the one game stepping up a left hander against the left handed 00:08:45.330 --> 00:08:49.217 plant of Bob Conley 00:08:49.250 --> 00:08:53.456 and some of the fans are on hand here tonight. Must have been here last 00:08:53.489 --> 00:08:57.677 night. They remember Scotty. Of course, we have a pretty good little 00:08:57.710 --> 00:09:01.986 contingent of Arizonans here to cheer the Sun Devils on Reid got one of 00:09:02.019 --> 00:09:04.525 his homers last night against the lefty and the other against the right 00:09:04.558 --> 00:09:08.025 hander. Kindly on the mound. Now, working from the stretch with the 00:09:08.058 --> 00:09:13.417 leadoff hitter, Fred Nelson, a lead from first base, Nelson Lee Sun double 00:09:13.450 --> 00:09:17.456 leader in stolen bases curve to Scott Reed misses the strikes on inside 00:09:17.489 --> 00:09:21.366 and it's one and all of course, uh as was the situation last night, the 00:09:21.399 --> 00:09:25.196 Sun Devils not likely to do a great deal of running early in the game, 00:09:25.229 --> 00:09:28.467 particularly that runner at first base because the opposition has a left 00:09:28.500 --> 00:09:32.927 hander on the mound. 00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:37.996 Scott Reed standing in there 1 to 0 count to him. The Eagles first baseman 00:09:38.029 --> 00:09:41.726 holding Nelson close. There goes Nelson and a hit and run on up to the 00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:45.836 second sacker up with it and over to the first baseman and Nelson moves 00:09:45.869 --> 00:09:50.677 along so read what they run and hit on, hit it on the ground picked up by 00:09:50.710 --> 00:09:55.157 the second baseman and advances the runner 00:09:55.190 --> 00:09:59.875 Mike Robertson throwing out Scott Reed and Nelson on down there at second 00:09:59.908 --> 00:10:02.326 base. 00:10:02.359 --> 00:10:06.125 Freddy has 19 thefts on the season. Ralph Carpenter is stepping in. 00:10:06.158 --> 00:10:09.066 Carpenter had two hits and four trips last night, scored a run and he 00:10:09.099 --> 00:10:13.486 stole a base stole third. As a matter of fact, big right handed hitter, 00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:18.015 the left fielder for Arizona State, Nelson edging away from the bag at 00:10:18.048 --> 00:10:23.307 second and here's the delivery swinging a mess as carpenter, a pull hitter 00:10:23.340 --> 00:10:28.976 was way out in front of that pitch. Something taken off of by Conley. 00:10:29.009 --> 00:10:34.525 Last night, our crowd here was just under 6000 and it appears we may have 00:10:34.558 --> 00:10:38.537 a slightly larger crowd this evening. There was a 5050 chance of showers 00:10:38.570 --> 00:10:43.125 forecast, but the weather is held up and we don't appear to be headed for 00:10:43.158 --> 00:10:45.467 any problems in that direction. At least at the moment there is an 00:10:45.500 --> 00:10:50.667 overcast here but not a very heavy one. 00:10:50.700 --> 00:10:54.907 Carpenter. The batter, the 01 pitch to him fastball in there at the knees 00:10:54.940 --> 00:10:59.275 and it's 02 carpenter taking looks down to Doug Nuremberg, the son of a 00:10:59.308 --> 00:11:05.787 captain in the third base coaching box 00:11:05.820 --> 00:11:09.635 nothing in two as Connolly has gotten in front of Ralph Carpenter, one out 00:11:09.668 --> 00:11:13.436 Freddie Nelson who opened the game with the base on balls, receiving the 00:11:13.469 --> 00:11:16.657 base on balls from Conley on at second base edging away from the bag. Now 00:11:16.690 --> 00:11:20.375 takes a good lead, unintentional swing by Carpenter rolling down the first 00:11:20.408 --> 00:11:25.696 baseline foul scooped into foul territory or batted away from fair 00:11:25.729 --> 00:11:29.167 territory by pitcher Bob Conley coming off the hill. Carpenter has been 00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:32.356 having a problem with the unintentional swing. That's the third time in 00:11:32.389 --> 00:11:37.505 this series that he has contacted the ball unintentionally. This one going 00:11:37.538 --> 00:11:41.037 foul last night, he was uh into a fielder's choice one time and uh thrown 00:11:41.070 --> 00:11:45.297 out another time as he tried to hold up and hit the ball fair. So the con 00:11:45.330 --> 00:11:50.657 to him remains Owen to Carpenter from Mesa 00:11:50.690 --> 00:11:57.696 as is another Sun double star Jack Lynn 00:11:57.729 --> 00:12:01.297 on to 00:12:01.330 --> 00:12:05.167 Nelson, moving away from the bag at second swinging the meds and Carpenter 00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:09.525 goes down for a strikeout of the game 00:12:09.558 --> 00:12:16.255 on the season. Of course, uh Conley has not pitched a great deal striking 00:12:16.288 --> 00:12:21.826 out 14 but he's only pitched 18 innings a ball prior to this 12 gone as 00:12:21.859 --> 00:12:26.186 Carpenter goes down swinging in the third strike. The hitter is Randy Bob 00:12:26.219 --> 00:12:29.895 over for four last night and his batting average dropping to 289 but Randy 00:12:29.928 --> 00:12:33.467 has been hitting the ball well in recent sun double outings and if he 00:12:33.500 --> 00:12:36.167 keeps on smacking it. They're gonna start falling in for him. Sooner or 00:12:36.200 --> 00:12:41.326 later 00:12:41.359 --> 00:12:44.557 out on the mound, the left hander takes his time, gets the sign checks. 00:12:44.590 --> 00:12:47.246 The runner at second comes to the plate. First pitch to Bob, swing on and 00:12:47.279 --> 00:12:54.346 missed as he went for one in the outer portion of the strike zone. 00:12:54.379 --> 00:12:59.885 It's humid again in Otaha 00:12:59.918 --> 00:13:04.686 and last night's temperatures in the seventies or so and, uh, the humidity 00:13:04.719 --> 00:13:10.057 up in the 80% range and probably not quite that miserable this evening. 00:13:10.090 --> 00:13:12.836 Although it, it is humid, there is a good breeze blowing from right to 00:13:12.869 --> 00:13:16.417 left. Here's a ground ball hit out toward the shortstop into the base path 00:13:16.450 --> 00:13:20.547 up with it and throws out his man and the Sun Devils are retired Scarlets 00:13:20.580 --> 00:13:24.836 here on the top of inning. Number one, 00:13:24.869 --> 00:13:30.066 no runs, no hits, no errors. One base runner left and after a half inning 00:13:30.099 --> 00:13:38.099 of play to score Arizona State nothing. Boston College coming to that. No 00:13:40.239 --> 00:13:48.239 junior is 00:14:01.239 --> 00:14:07.967 ok. 00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:15.505 Get 7-Up in big bottles. Big taste, big satisfaction, big lift. That's 00:14:15.538 --> 00:14:23.538 7-Up. Just that much more to enjoy. 7-Up in the big bottles 00:14:29.099 --> 00:14:37.099 again. First aside 00:14:38.320 --> 00:14:41.417 score for the Sun Devils in the top of the first inning Arizona State, the 00:14:41.450 --> 00:14:45.116 visiting team here tonight and Boston College coming up sending to the 00:14:45.149 --> 00:14:50.596 plate first, Ed o'neill the shortstop with Mike Robertson, the second 00:14:50.629 --> 00:14:55.366 baseman, the bat in the number two hitting position. Then Mick Amick the 00:14:55.399 --> 00:14:58.297 right fielder 00:14:58.330 --> 00:15:02.246 Ed o'neil the shortstop to lead it off. Apparently there's been a number 00:15:02.279 --> 00:15:06.696 of change should be wearing number six. But uh we see has number 22 but 00:15:06.729 --> 00:15:11.385 it's been confirmed in the press box. Apparently that he is o'neill bunt 00:15:11.418 --> 00:15:14.967 for a base hit. Lays it down to the right side. Good B Bob off the rag. No 00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:20.395 play, beautiful bunt laid down for the base hit by Ed o'neill. So the 00:15:20.428 --> 00:15:25.015 leadoff hitter is on for Boston College. 00:15:25.048 --> 00:15:31.307 The Eagles coached by major league veteran Ed Pellegrini, Eddie, a 10 year 00:15:31.340 --> 00:15:34.856 veteran of the major league saw service in both the American and national 00:15:34.889 --> 00:15:41.476 leagues, 00:15:41.509 --> 00:15:47.547 Mike Robertson to step up and we have uh quite a change in uniform numbers 00:15:47.580 --> 00:15:52.946 apparently from those that had been published prior to the World Series, 00:15:52.979 --> 00:15:56.226 but it is Mike Robertson left handed, hitting second baseman squares 00:15:56.259 --> 00:15:59.265 around the butt, lays it down to the left side, grand guard in charging 00:15:59.298 --> 00:16:06.096 fires not in time how it so with a couple of months, Boston College has 00:16:06.129 --> 00:16:13.486 runners on 1st and 2nd. 00:16:13.519 --> 00:16:16.797 A beautiful bunt laid down by the left handed hitting Mike Robertson to 00:16:16.830 --> 00:16:19.996 the left side of the infield. Grand guard charging in hard, couldn't throw 00:16:20.029 --> 00:16:22.566 him on. 00:16:22.599 --> 00:16:28.336 That'll bring up Mick Amick 00:16:28.369 --> 00:16:33.096 am also a left handed hitter against the right hander Tom Burgess on the 00:16:33.129 --> 00:16:38.446 mound. Berg with a record of 14 and 31.52 earned run average. The catcher 00:16:38.479 --> 00:16:45.866 Ron Divini first pitch to Amic, Ami CK is inside and it's one and all last 00:16:45.899 --> 00:16:48.996 night, as you know, Gary Gentry was in all sorts of difficulty in the 00:16:49.029 --> 00:16:53.297 early going and came on to strike out 16 to tie a college world series 00:16:53.330 --> 00:16:58.706 record pitching a six hitter for the win, fastball thrown by Burgess 00:16:58.739 --> 00:17:03.177 inside. And it's a two and all 00:17:03.210 --> 00:17:07.006 Burgess on the season has had pretty good control and pitching 100 and 32 00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:12.516 100 and 32 3rd innings has walked just 61 opposing bath and he struck out 00:17:12.549 --> 00:17:16.236 152 00:17:16.269 --> 00:17:20.476 two or nothing. The counter emic next pitch hit on the ground out toward 00:17:20.509 --> 00:17:24.147 Nelson handcuffs him for a moment but he gets it to second for one back. 00:17:24.180 --> 00:17:30.105 The first double play, a good relay by Jack Lynn. A sharply hit ground 00:17:30.138 --> 00:17:34.245 ball to Freddie Nelson and Freddie for a moment was handcuffed but still 00:17:34.278 --> 00:17:39.105 got it to lend in time for the relay and the double play and o'neill moves 00:17:39.138 --> 00:17:43.967 on down to third base 00:17:44.000 --> 00:17:49.746 and they, they back the 00:17:49.779 --> 00:17:53.706 Dan Zal. The left fielder of Boston College stepping in a right hand 00:17:53.739 --> 00:17:57.217 hitter breaking pitch to him is outside down at third base pretty good 00:17:57.250 --> 00:18:02.156 lead down the line taken by Ed o'neill on that delivery as Gentry was 00:18:02.189 --> 00:18:05.335 working from the full lined up with two out. Now, of course, the son of 00:18:05.368 --> 00:18:09.847 infield back to normal death again, the big lead as Burgess works from the 00:18:09.880 --> 00:18:15.857 full lined up. Fastball is low and it's a two nothing count 00:18:15.890 --> 00:18:20.035 o'neill on the season has a, 00:18:20.068 --> 00:18:23.555 a big lead in stolen bases among the Boston college players was 19 and 00:18:23.588 --> 00:18:26.377 he's certainly getting his lead down the third base line about a third of 00:18:26.410 --> 00:18:29.756 the way down. Now as the delivery comes and is filed back to the screen, 00:18:29.789 --> 00:18:33.246 Ron Devaney with a mask off. No play on that one and the count is two and 00:18:33.279 --> 00:18:35.906 one. Let's pause for station identification. This is the Arizona 00:18:35.939 --> 00:18:40.967 Broadcasting System, Ktar Phoenix first in Arizona. You'll own the very 00:18:41.000 --> 00:18:45.426 finest when it's magnificent. Magnavox color TV. Sales and service leader 00:18:45.459 --> 00:18:53.459 for over 20 years is Maha and TV stereo, both in Phoenix and in Mesa 00:18:57.019 --> 00:19:00.545 Dan Zayo. The batter for Boston College two and one count to him. Burgess 00:19:00.578 --> 00:19:03.795 delivery again filed back and the count is even at two and two. Zales 00:19:03.828 --> 00:19:11.085 Coast is filling in for the regular Eagles left fielder, Mike Fennell who 00:19:11.118 --> 00:19:14.565 was injured last night running the bases on a pick off attempt at first 00:19:14.598 --> 00:19:18.486 base. He dived back into the bag and somehow suffered a shoulder 00:19:18.519 --> 00:19:22.776 dislocation. So Zz is filling in for him. Here's a pitch in the dirt 00:19:22.809 --> 00:19:27.156 nicely blocked by demi o'neill is still taking a lot of liberties down the 00:19:27.189 --> 00:19:29.887 line from third base. 00:19:29.920 --> 00:19:33.035 We're in the lower half of the first inning, no score in the game as yet 00:19:33.068 --> 00:19:37.986 here in the college World Series in Omaha, Nebraska, 00:19:38.019 --> 00:19:41.607 Larry Ville in center field fairly shallow against the right handed 00:19:41.640 --> 00:19:47.506 hitters. Aus swing and a pop up toward Fred Nelson in on the skin of the 00:19:47.539 --> 00:19:51.397 infield waiting makes the grab and the Sun Devils get out of difficulties 00:19:51.430 --> 00:19:55.516 after the Eagles had opened with a couple of bunts in the bottom of the 00:19:55.549 --> 00:20:02.305 first sales is popping out to Nelson. No runs, two hits, no errors and one 00:20:02.338 --> 00:20:06.246 base runner left thanks to a double play and after one full inning of play 00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:10.325 , it's a scoreless game. 00:20:10.358 --> 00:20:15.906 A PS is many things. It is people dedicated, people who enjoy their job of 00:20:15.939 --> 00:20:21.555 serving you. A PS is responsibility, the responsibility of using all 00:20:21.588 --> 00:20:25.936 available resources to bring you gas and electric energy as economically 00:20:25.969 --> 00:20:30.206 and efficiently as possible. The responsibility of providing an atmosphere 00:20:30.239 --> 00:20:34.676 in which employees can develop their skills to the best of their abilities. 00:20:34.709 --> 00:20:38.597 The responsibility of justifying the faith of investors who will put 00:20:38.630 --> 00:20:44.617 their money to work for the future of Arizona. A PS is an idea. The idea 00:20:44.650 --> 00:20:48.686 that through imaginative research and development, energy will someday 00:20:48.719 --> 00:20:53.357 serve you even better and more economically by means not even dreamed of 00:20:53.390 --> 00:20:59.656 yet. A PS is all of these and more a dedicated servant. Always busy with 00:20:59.689 --> 00:21:03.347 your interests in mind. A good neighbor willing to assist you with any 00:21:03.380 --> 00:21:09.387 problem you might have. A PS is what you call your dual energy company. A 00:21:09.420 --> 00:21:14.746 PS is short for Arizona Public Service company. It's long on service to 00:21:14.779 --> 00:21:21.315 you. 00:21:21.348 --> 00:21:23.835 Ready to go to play here in the second inning. A scoreless game is yet 00:21:23.868 --> 00:21:26.696 between Boston College and Arizona State to lead it off the number five 00:21:26.729 --> 00:21:29.785 hitter for the Sun Devils. Dave Granard, the third baseman, he'll be 00:21:29.818 --> 00:21:34.406 followed by Larry Linville and Jack Lynn left hander on the mound. Bob 00:21:34.439 --> 00:21:37.746 Conley misses outside with his first pitch to grand guard, grand guard 00:21:37.779 --> 00:21:43.535 hitting 257. I was up just twice officially last night, got one hit and 00:21:43.568 --> 00:21:46.867 scored on 00:21:46.900 --> 00:21:52.166 right handed, hitting grand guard from a somewhat closed d swings on the 00:21:52.199 --> 00:21:55.607 next pitch and hits it deep to left center field. This one will fall in 00:21:55.640 --> 00:21:59.666 there a base hit for grand guard who makes the big turn at first. Now as 00:21:59.699 --> 00:22:05.075 the relay comes in scurry back to first base, so Granard gets the first 00:22:05.108 --> 00:22:10.976 hit for the Sun devils wrapping one in between the fielders but not on 00:22:11.009 --> 00:22:16.456 through to the wall. As both center fielder Dan, uh John Simon and left 00:22:16.489 --> 00:22:22.065 fielder, Dan Zayas were able to converge on that one 00:22:22.098 --> 00:22:26.276 but in there for a singleton, 00:22:26.309 --> 00:22:30.426 Larry Linville zero for three in the college World Series 258 batting 00:22:30.459 --> 00:22:35.117 average steps up right handed hitter, 00:22:35.150 --> 00:22:39.996 Larry, it's felt by coach Winkles is about due to snap out of a batting 00:22:40.029 --> 00:22:42.936 slump and has been making better contact for the ball of late than he did 00:22:42.969 --> 00:22:49.736 for a spell in the latter portion of the regular season. 00:22:49.769 --> 00:22:55.065 Plate umpire Bill mckinley tidying up. Now we're set to go with Conley 00:22:55.098 --> 00:22:58.295 from the stretch grand guard opening the second inning with a single on 00:22:58.328 --> 00:23:01.676 the first short lead. Here's the pitch to Linville hit on the ground to 00:23:01.709 --> 00:23:05.147 the left side, going to the hole is the shortstop, but no play as he went 00:23:05.180 --> 00:23:08.476 clear into the hole and back to the edge of the outfield grass, the third 00:23:08.509 --> 00:23:12.295 baseman Bill Plunker off to his left, couldn't quite get into it. Uh, get 00:23:12.328 --> 00:23:17.006 to it. And uh Linville on at first as he placed that one exactly in the 00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:22.026 hole and no play by the shortstop Ed o'neill. So the Sun Devils now with 00:23:22.059 --> 00:23:26.305 runners on it 1st and 2nd on two consecutive singles off left hander Bob 00:23:26.338 --> 00:23:30.446 Conley switch hitting Jack Lynn who was one of the batting stars for I was 00:23:30.479 --> 00:23:34.335 in a state last night with two hits and three trips, a run batted in and a 00:23:34.368 --> 00:23:38.097 run scored one of those hits it. This was a triple batting right switch 00:23:38.130 --> 00:23:44.156 hitter against the left handed slats of Bob Conley 00:23:44.189 --> 00:23:48.367 runners at 1st and 2nd. Nobody out Lynn squares around the butt dumps it 00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:50.506 out in front of the plate picked up by the catcher who will have to go to 00:23:50.539 --> 00:23:56.867 first. The sacrifice is successful as grand moves on down to third base 00:23:56.900 --> 00:24:01.627 and Linville in the second. So it's a sacrifice for Jack Lynn thrown out 00:24:01.660 --> 00:24:05.686 the catcher to the second baseman covering at first, that'll bring up Ron 00:24:05.719 --> 00:24:09.996 Deviney two for four last night and scored a Ron Devine with a 305 batting 00:24:10.029 --> 00:24:15.545 average. The Sun Devil catcher 00:24:15.578 --> 00:24:19.436 and Ron has not managed to get much dirt at all on his uniform yet. Give 00:24:19.469 --> 00:24:26.696 him a little time. Oh, he's a hard working catcher and uh, manages to 00:24:26.729 --> 00:24:32.147 create a bit of a laundry problem with those uniforms in 00:24:32.180 --> 00:24:36.967 right handed dinner out on the mound. Conley with a couple of sun, double 00:24:37.000 --> 00:24:40.156 runners in scoring position and one out taking his time now rocks into the 00:24:40.189 --> 00:24:44.676 delivery and he decides not to pitch to run the, they'll put him on with 00:24:44.709 --> 00:24:49.217 first base oven. That'll bring up Burgess who is a pretty good hitting 00:24:49.250 --> 00:24:53.867 pitcher. Let's just say a pretty good hitter, period almost threw one of 00:24:53.900 --> 00:25:00.847 the intentional balls away. 00:25:00.880 --> 00:25:07.295 The one that got just a tab too wide of the plane, 00:25:07.328 --> 00:25:14.137 all three Burgess as we started to say is a 300 hitter and has hit well in 00:25:14.170 --> 00:25:19.416 his own cause at times, Berg, he's got 18 hits and 60 at bats for his 300 00:25:19.449 --> 00:25:22.325 average. He's got a double and three triples, a home run. He's driven in 00:25:22.358 --> 00:25:28.766 eight runs. So he comes up now with the bases loaded 00:25:28.799 --> 00:25:32.467 and one on 00:25:32.500 --> 00:25:38.506 with your pressure. He right 00:25:38.539 --> 00:25:43.256 Burgess a right handed hitter against left hander Bob Conley Conley in a 00:25:43.289 --> 00:25:48.156 real pressure spot for a young man, a sophomore who had only pitched 18 00:25:48.189 --> 00:25:53.006 innings prior to this college World Series and he's got his work cut out 00:25:53.039 --> 00:25:58.285 for him now with just one out and the bases loaded 00:25:58.318 --> 00:26:06.318 time taken for a moment. Kindly out on the line looking into the BC dugout. 00:26:07.380 --> 00:26:09.380 Now he steps back up to tow the pitching rubber. Looks to catch your Bob 00:26:11.519 --> 00:26:14.526 Meer for the sign working from the full line up into the delivery, 00:26:14.559 --> 00:26:19.236 swinging him as five burgess on the first pitch to 00:26:19.269 --> 00:26:24.647 Tommy steps out and kicks a bit of spike out of dirt out of his spikes and 00:26:24.680 --> 00:26:31.186 back into the batter's box is Conley up on the hill again on one 00:26:31.219 --> 00:26:34.367 no score in the game as yet. But a big threat warmed up by the sun levels. 00:26:34.400 --> 00:26:38.597 Burgess swings hits one to left field high in the air, the left fielder 00:26:38.630 --> 00:26:42.726 in just a couple of steps, waiting runners tag up one run will score. 00:26:42.759 --> 00:26:46.236 Here's the throw to the plate, gets away for a moment, but backing it up 00:26:46.269 --> 00:26:52.137 is the first baseman. So the Sun Devils send Dave Granard in with the 00:26:52.170 --> 00:27:00.170 first run of the game. A sacrifice fly and a run batted in for Tom Bridges 00:27:01.318 --> 00:27:06.055 as Burgess flies out to left field grand guard coming in to score. Larry 00:27:06.088 --> 00:27:12.717 Linville, moving down to third base and Ron Devine to second as the base 00:27:12.750 --> 00:27:15.976 runner is tagged up all around and the throw coming into the plate 00:27:16.009 --> 00:27:24.009 enabling if they need to get into second. Linville had 3rd May 00:27:24.598 --> 00:27:28.666 Fred Nelson steps in still with a 314 batting average. Walked in his first 00:27:28.699 --> 00:27:32.127 trip tonight, looking for his third hit in the college World Series. 00:27:32.160 --> 00:27:35.367 Little right handed hitter. Looks at a pitch that's blown away and it's 00:27:35.400 --> 00:27:39.946 one and no to him. Yep. As Freddie told us and if you were with us in the 00:27:39.979 --> 00:27:42.637 first inning, you heard the coach doesn't like him to hit him in the air 00:27:42.670 --> 00:27:45.176 because he's not strong enough to hit him past anybody just hit him on the 00:27:45.209 --> 00:27:52.266 ground and run like heck, that's what he's supposed to do to Fred. 00:27:52.299 --> 00:27:56.035 He takes one that's over the heart of the plate for a called strike one on 00:27:56.068 --> 00:28:00.926 one 00:28:00.959 --> 00:28:07.305 runners at 2nd and 3rd. Now, first base still open or open once again, Sun 00:28:07.338 --> 00:28:11.916 Devils with a run in here in inning number two, up front one to nothing 00:28:11.949 --> 00:28:16.607 and still with the threat going now with two outs next pitch gets away 00:28:16.640 --> 00:28:20.196 briefly from the catcher, but L won't try to come down the line as Mars on 00:28:20.229 --> 00:28:25.137 it quickly to prevent the scar. 00:28:25.170 --> 00:28:28.006 Now, a little conference between catcher Bob Marr and his pitcher, Bob 00:28:28.039 --> 00:28:32.575 Conley out in front of a home plate and Freddie Nelson who has a two on 00:28:32.608 --> 00:28:35.676 one count to him, steps back into the batter's box as kindly returns to 00:28:35.709 --> 00:28:41.335 the mound playing Nelson fairly shallow. And of course, he 00:28:41.368 --> 00:28:46.486 does not, as he told us driving past too many people. Has seven doubles 00:28:46.519 --> 00:28:51.535 and five triples but no home runs on the season. 00:28:51.568 --> 00:28:55.717 Here's the two on one pitch to Fred bit low in the C three balls, one 00:28:55.750 --> 00:29:01.387 strike. Well, kindly you can afford to work the corners and not worry too 00:29:01.420 --> 00:29:08.055 much about getting the strike zone here with first base open 00:29:08.088 --> 00:29:13.186 dream one. 00:29:13.219 --> 00:29:17.436 Kindly taking his time back up on the hill 00:29:17.469 --> 00:29:21.147 consecutive singles by Dave Granard and Larry Lindell opened the inning 00:29:21.180 --> 00:29:24.496 here for Arizona State and Grand Gard has scored three and one delivery 00:29:24.529 --> 00:29:28.377 high. And for the second time, young Fred Nelson is on at first with a 00:29:28.410 --> 00:29:36.347 base on balls. And again, the bases are loaded. 00:29:36.380 --> 00:29:41.416 One run batted in here by Tom Burgess on a sacrifice fly to left field. 00:29:41.449 --> 00:29:44.565 Sunday was leading one to nothing now with two outs and the bases loaded 00:29:44.598 --> 00:29:48.726 once again, Scott Reed, the lad who pulled two of them out of here 00:29:48.759 --> 00:29:53.107 opposite field home runs last night. And this evening in his first 00:29:53.140 --> 00:29:56.406 appearance at the plate on the hit and run grounded out second to first 00:29:56.439 --> 00:30:00.706 moving a runner along in the process. 00:30:00.739 --> 00:30:06.627 Rain stocky left handed hitter looks at a breaking pitch that's in there 00:30:06.660 --> 00:30:10.127 for a strike. 00:30:10.160 --> 00:30:14.736 Reed is able to hit with good power to pitches on the outside of the plate. 00:30:14.769 --> 00:30:18.627 That one was, but he didn't offer at it 00:30:18.660 --> 00:30:24.456 on one count of the PICO Rivera California right fielder also performs in 00:30:24.489 --> 00:30:30.075 center from time to time for a su takes the next pitch inside 00:30:30.108 --> 00:30:34.156 Bob Winkles, uh, was telling me this morning that he's been after Scott 00:30:34.189 --> 00:30:38.367 Reed to use his hands more in hitting the baseball. He gets a lot of body 00:30:38.400 --> 00:30:40.565 into him and he says, you gotta get those hands out there as big and 00:30:40.598 --> 00:30:43.776 strong as you are. You can hit one out with your wrist action alone. So 00:30:43.809 --> 00:30:46.496 after his second home runner, he, uh, se second home run last night, he 00:30:46.529 --> 00:30:49.887 came into the son of a dugout and said, get the hands into that one. All 00:30:49.920 --> 00:30:56.127 right, coach fouls back the next pitch and it's one and two. And coach 00:30:56.160 --> 00:31:01.545 Winkles agreed that he had gotten plenty of hands into about a 350 ft 00:31:01.578 --> 00:31:09.578 wrong field home run. He had earlier hit one out at about the 380 mark 00:31:11.140 --> 00:31:17.637 one and two to add and the bases loaded and Conley from the full wind up 00:31:17.670 --> 00:31:20.717 delivers a swing and a line shot into center field, center field are 00:31:20.750 --> 00:31:25.476 charging ties. The shoe thing can't get up, can't come up with it. And in 00:31:25.509 --> 00:31:31.006 Income, Linville and Devine the score runs number two and three for 00:31:31.039 --> 00:31:36.496 Arizona State, a line drive into center field, John Salmon charging hard 00:31:36.529 --> 00:31:40.467 looked as though he might be able to make the play on it. Tried for the 00:31:40.500 --> 00:31:44.206 shoestring. He was able to block the ball, bat it up into the air a bit, 00:31:44.239 --> 00:31:50.107 retrieve it, but two runs are in 00:31:50.140 --> 00:31:57.055 and read on its second base, Freddie Nelson moving around the third. So 00:31:57.088 --> 00:32:00.097 again, the Sun Devils with two runners in scoring position as Ralph 00:32:00.130 --> 00:32:04.726 Carpenter comes up 00:32:04.759 --> 00:32:09.305 third hit in the, in the inning, third hit of the game for Arizona State 00:32:09.338 --> 00:32:13.535 and three runs there now 00:32:13.568 --> 00:32:19.676 and a pair of RBIs for Scott Reed to run his total in the series to six 00:32:19.709 --> 00:32:24.246 first pitch to Carpenter swung on him. Miss Carpenter was a strikeout 00:32:24.279 --> 00:32:32.279 victim. The only Sun double to go down on strikes in the first inning. 00:32:33.338 --> 00:32:37.825 Bob kindly on the mound good lead by Fred Nelson down the line at third. 00:32:37.858 --> 00:32:42.285 Carpenter Times. The curve hits a high flying into short center field 00:32:42.318 --> 00:32:46.776 drifting in for it is John Salmon and makes the grab. So the Sun Devils 00:32:46.809 --> 00:32:50.967 are retired in the second as Ralph Carpenter flies out to center field but 00:32:51.000 --> 00:32:56.785 for the Devils three runs on three hits, there was one error charged to 00:32:56.818 --> 00:33:00.726 Boston College and that was on the line shot to center field that John 00:33:00.759 --> 00:33:05.075 Salmon charged and they gave him an error for lying in advance by Reed the 00:33:05.108 --> 00:33:09.627 second and two base runners left. And after an inning and a half here in 00:33:09.660 --> 00:33:16.706 Omaha, the score Arizona State three Boston College, nothing 00:33:16.739 --> 00:33:22.377 you can beat the clock because even the fact bottom of the second inning 00:33:22.410 --> 00:33:25.877 here at the College World Series, Arizona State with three runs in the top 00:33:25.910 --> 00:33:29.805 of the frame out in front of Boston College. Three nothing. And Tom 00:33:29.838 --> 00:33:33.756 Burgess, the sturdy right hander on the hill for a su Burgess with an 00:33:33.789 --> 00:33:36.776 earned run average of 1.52 00:33:36.809 --> 00:33:40.295 and his finest pitching performance of the season. His last time out 00:33:40.328 --> 00:33:43.436 against Air force to face John Salmon. Center fielder, come back to the 00:33:43.469 --> 00:33:46.766 mound on the first pitch gloved by Burgess over to Bob at first and 00:33:46.799 --> 00:33:50.467 there's one away now Salmon swinging on the first pitch grounds out 00:33:50.500 --> 00:33:54.436 pitcher to first 00:33:54.469 --> 00:33:57.976 Bill Kitley. The first baseman steps up, he'll be followed by third 00:33:58.009 --> 00:34:03.117 baseman Bill Plunker 00:34:03.150 --> 00:34:10.816 Kit with a 284 batting average. 00:34:10.849 --> 00:34:13.936 Arizona State getting its three runs from the top of the second Dave 00:34:13.969 --> 00:34:19.635 Granard and Larry Linville leading off of back to back singles. 00:34:19.668 --> 00:34:24.115 Then a sacrifice by Jack Lynn to move them both along an intentional walk 00:34:24.148 --> 00:34:31.276 to Ron Deviney. First pitch to Kitley is in there for a strike. 00:34:31.309 --> 00:34:35.356 Tom Burgess drove in the first son of a one run with a sacrifice fly, a 00:34:35.389 --> 00:34:42.095 swing and a ground foul rolling on back to the screen. 00:34:42.128 --> 00:34:45.316 And then, uh 00:34:45.349 --> 00:34:49.385 after Fred Nelson was walked, Scott, Reed singled up the middle to drive 00:34:49.418 --> 00:34:54.327 in two more so double runs. 00:34:54.360 --> 00:34:57.327 So Reed has been quite the hitting star for Arizona state up to now in 00:34:57.360 --> 00:35:01.195 this college World Series next pitch to Kitley outside and the one ball 00:35:01.228 --> 00:35:03.776 two strike count 00:35:03.809 --> 00:35:08.026 K A left hander against the right hander Burgess. Quite a few of the BC 00:35:08.059 --> 00:35:13.467 players in the lineup tonight. South Bar batters. 00:35:13.500 --> 00:35:16.546 Here's the one and two pitch fouled away out of play to the left side back 00:35:16.579 --> 00:35:20.186 over the roof of the grandstand. Nice facility here in Omaha. Johnny 00:35:20.219 --> 00:35:25.655 Rosenblatt stadium named after the late Johnny Rosenblatt, who was quite a 00:35:25.688 --> 00:35:31.756 civic leader, very active and very popular and useful citizen of the city 00:35:31.789 --> 00:35:37.686 of Omaha. And this fine stadium named after him. Fastball is in there 00:35:37.719 --> 00:35:42.175 taken for a call strike and that is the first strikeout for Tom Burgess 00:35:42.208 --> 00:35:47.706 who got 13 of them against Air Force and pitching a one hitter. 00:35:47.739 --> 00:35:52.586 I asked Tom about that pitching performance uh against the Air Force. He 00:35:52.619 --> 00:35:55.967 had some comments which we uh we have for you a little bit later on in the 00:35:56.000 --> 00:36:02.267 broadcast 00:36:02.300 --> 00:36:06.876 took on in the batter, Bill Plunker. Plunker was the batting hero for 00:36:06.909 --> 00:36:12.876 Boston College and his win over writer yesterday first pitch to Plunkett 00:36:12.909 --> 00:36:17.727 just a little bit outside down around the knees. Plunkett doubled home the 00:36:17.760 --> 00:36:22.086 couple of runs with the score tied at one and one to enable the Eagles to 00:36:22.119 --> 00:36:27.206 defeat Ryder 3 to 1 in their first game yesterday. Slider just misses 00:36:27.239 --> 00:36:32.057 outside and that's two and all the sun levels defensively with Bob at 00:36:32.090 --> 00:36:35.526 first Nelson at secondly, the shortstop grand guard at third in the 00:36:35.559 --> 00:36:41.077 outfield, Carpenter Linville and Reed 00:36:41.110 --> 00:36:45.916 two delivery by Burgess on his way, this one a bit low and Tom falls 00:36:45.949 --> 00:36:50.675 behind three and all two out. Nobody on here in the lower, lower half of 00:36:50.708 --> 00:36:54.885 inning. Number two with the Sun doubles in front three nothing. 00:36:54.918 --> 00:36:58.606 If the Sun Devils win this game 00:36:58.639 --> 00:37:02.195 nationally. Fourth ranked A su will play first ranked Stanford tomorrow 00:37:02.228 --> 00:37:10.228 pass ball in there and it's three in one 00:37:13.458 --> 00:37:17.776 time taken briefly. 00:37:17.809 --> 00:37:23.796 Yeah, called by plate umpire Bill mckinney 00:37:23.829 --> 00:37:27.727 Burgess takes plenty of time along. Look into Ron Deviney for the sign now 00:37:27.760 --> 00:37:31.936 delivers and he issues a base on balls as the pitch is blown away. First 00:37:31.969 --> 00:37:34.057 walk 00:37:34.090 --> 00:37:38.787 given up by Tom Burgess who was touched for a couple of bunt singles in 00:37:38.820 --> 00:37:43.986 the first inning. A Sun double, double play helped to ease his problems in 00:37:44.019 --> 00:37:46.986 a hurry. 00:37:47.019 --> 00:37:52.666 So the runner out at first base and two gone, Bob Maher, the VC catcher 00:37:52.699 --> 00:37:58.635 steps up 241 hitter. 00:37:58.668 --> 00:38:03.916 Marr spells his name the same as does the football player for Detroit when 00:38:03.949 --> 00:38:08.296 the Sun Devils played back in 1958 when he was at the Detroit University. 00:38:08.329 --> 00:38:14.425 Ma h er I haven't heard whether the two chaps are related. 00:38:14.458 --> 00:38:20.095 Be just ready to pitch tomorrow. Blown away. Blocked nicely by Ron Deviney. 00:38:20.128 --> 00:38:24.017 We pass along some scores of uh major league contests to you in the 00:38:24.050 --> 00:38:27.247 American League after eight innings. White Sox leading the Senators six 00:38:27.280 --> 00:38:31.986 nothing after five, the twins in front of the Tigers 5 to 1. Kansas City 00:38:32.019 --> 00:38:39.095 blank Baltimore won nothing. Yankees over the Red Sox 5 to 3 next pitch 00:38:39.128 --> 00:38:43.146 low and away again Burgess missing outside and low with a number of his 00:38:43.179 --> 00:38:45.195 pitches 00:38:45.228 --> 00:38:49.236 after five innings. The first of two, California leads Cleveland three to 00:38:49.269 --> 00:38:53.615 nothing. And that's the action as we have it up to date in the American 00:38:53.648 --> 00:38:56.666 League National League scores will pass along as soon as we have an 00:38:56.699 --> 00:39:01.086 opportunity, run around at first base edges away from the sack. Now as 00:39:01.119 --> 00:39:04.936 Burgess from the stretch delivers and again, misses outside threat. All 00:39:04.969 --> 00:39:08.256 Burgess suddenly having trouble hitting the outside corner of the strike 00:39:08.289 --> 00:39:11.896 zone. So time is taken by Ron Deviney who wants to confer with the right 00:39:11.929 --> 00:39:17.077 hander 00:39:17.110 --> 00:39:20.936 in the first inning. Boston College, as we mentioned, got leadoff hitter 00:39:20.969 --> 00:39:25.077 and his number two hitter on each with a bunt. Mike Robertson, the second 00:39:25.110 --> 00:39:29.595 hitter attempting a sacrifice, placed his Munt beautifully and uh made it 00:39:29.628 --> 00:39:34.017 to first for a base hit, but then the Sun Devils turned a neat double play 00:39:34.050 --> 00:39:40.635 Fred Nelson to Jack Lynn to Randy Bond and the fourth hitter pops up. 00:39:40.668 --> 00:39:43.307 Here's one that's poured into the strike zone by Burgess and the count 00:39:43.340 --> 00:39:48.655 three balls and one strike in the national league, Cincinnati over the 00:39:48.688 --> 00:39:51.635 Mets six to nothing in the first of two and after 7.5 innings of the 00:39:51.668 --> 00:39:56.135 second game, the Mets lead seven nothing Houston leading San Francisco 2 00:39:56.168 --> 00:39:58.396 to 1 after five. Here's the pitch that's in there for a strike. I throw 00:39:58.429 --> 00:40:03.336 down the first base diving back in in time is Bob Marr and there's some on 00:40:03.369 --> 00:40:08.217 and on around the grandstand, uh because of that throw by Ron Divini who 00:40:08.250 --> 00:40:13.186 as you know, has an excellent arm and he showed it to the folks just now. 00:40:13.219 --> 00:40:16.206 We have to 00:40:16.239 --> 00:40:19.675 run about his throwing hand which bothered him and uh hope to have his 00:40:19.708 --> 00:40:24.026 reply for you here shortly. There goes the runner and the pitch outside. 00:40:24.059 --> 00:40:28.537 So consecutive bases on balls issued by Tom Burgess and runners on 1st and 00:40:28.570 --> 00:40:31.635 2nd with two out. Some of those leading here, three, nothing were in the 00:40:31.668 --> 00:40:37.679 lower half of inning. Number two, pitcher Bob Conley to come to the plate. 00:40:38.389 --> 00:40:40.389 Conley, a left hander all the way has been up just six times on the season 00:40:43.070 --> 00:40:47.467 , gotten three hits for a 500 average while the crowd is oohing and Awing 00:40:47.500 --> 00:40:50.646 . I don't think they realize that Jack Payne's announcement that he's only 00:40:50.679 --> 00:40:53.977 been the bat six times. 500 is pretty impressive if you've been up there a 00:40:54.010 --> 00:41:01.807 couple of 100 times, but six times doesn't really mean too much. 00:41:01.840 --> 00:41:04.727 Well, Connolly is listed as a left hander all the way, but he's up there 00:41:04.760 --> 00:41:08.655 right handed, swings and grounds the foul wide of the third base coaching 00:41:08.688 --> 00:41:12.655 box fielded down there by uh, 00:41:12.688 --> 00:41:20.405 its occupant who is Harvey Deasy reserve in Filler 00:41:20.438 --> 00:41:25.436 Conley right handed hitter, although left hander on the mound, 00:41:25.469 --> 00:41:29.405 not too much right about the information on this roster concerning DC 00:41:29.438 --> 00:41:32.615 swinging on a breaking ball. He didn't get in. It's own two burgess who 00:41:32.648 --> 00:41:36.557 had momentary control difficulty and walk two men now out in front of his 00:41:36.590 --> 00:41:43.405 opposite number Bob Conley on two, two out runners at 1st and 2nd 00:41:43.438 --> 00:41:47.217 in the National league Saint Louis leading Pittsburgh 7 to 3 after seven 00:41:47.250 --> 00:41:51.566 innings. A final in a day game, the Cubs beat the Dodgers 3 to 2 great 00:41:51.599 --> 00:41:56.635 innings. Atlanta leading Philadelphia one nothing next pitch, Ron Delaney 00:41:56.668 --> 00:41:59.695 doing a little dance down there and thinking that, uh, that was a 00:41:59.728 --> 00:42:02.655 strikeout started to head for the dugout, but hung on to the ball and 00:42:02.688 --> 00:42:10.236 asked played umpire Bill mckinley, what the call was and the Sun Devils we 00:42:10.269 --> 00:42:13.586 have learned are very careful in addressing the umpires here at the 00:42:13.619 --> 00:42:18.206 College World Series to address them as Mr mckinley or Mr Engle. And this 00:42:18.239 --> 00:42:22.736 never hurt anybody to show a little politeness to the man in blue, 00:42:22.769 --> 00:42:27.566 unintentional swing and a ground foul rolling wide to the first baseline. 00:42:27.599 --> 00:42:33.037 Kindly starting to run it off. Now, turning to the plate and we'll pause 00:42:33.070 --> 00:42:38.595 for station identification. This is the Arizona Broadcasting system, Ktar 00:42:38.628 --> 00:42:44.827 Phoenix first in Arizona, the Magnini in there chuck swing but it's in for 00:42:44.860 --> 00:42:48.577 a strike. Burgess gets his second strike out and with runners at 1st and 00:42:48.610 --> 00:42:55.146 2nd, he turns back the Eagles here in the bottom of inning. Number two 00:42:55.179 --> 00:43:00.666 for Boston College, no runs, no hits, no errors. A couple of base on balls 00:43:00.699 --> 00:43:03.905 and two base runners left after two full innings of play. The score. 00:43:03.938 --> 00:43:09.307 Arizona State three Boston College. Nothing ready to go when summer hits 00:43:09.340 --> 00:43:13.727 the Arizona desert. You'd better move fast. Grab hold of a chilled bottle 00:43:13.760 --> 00:43:19.905 of 7-Up and keep cool, chilling, thrilling crisp and crackling. 7-Up. 7-Up 00:43:19.938 --> 00:43:24.836 will turn a dry hot day into an oasis of soft drink satisfaction.

We moved to inning number three at College World Series in Omaha, 00:44:13.438 --> 00:44:17.316 the Sun Devils and the Eagles of Boston College. And here with the play by 00:44:17.349 --> 00:44:21.247 play description as we move along to the third inning, the staging and 00:44:21.280 --> 00:44:25.686 promotion director at Arizona State University and our frequent broadcast 00:44:25.719 --> 00:44:30.686 team member in covering a Su Sports Al Steven. Thank you very much, Bob. 00:44:30.719 --> 00:44:35.695 Uh It's amazing how quiet this crowd of over 7000 is here tonight. Uh 00:44:35.728 --> 00:44:39.046 Despite the fact that the Sun Devils rattled off three runs, there was 00:44:39.079 --> 00:44:42.876 very little reaction in the top of the second. Now we move to the top of 00:44:42.909 --> 00:44:47.365 the third. A SU three to nothing. Here's a shot in the center field by 00:44:47.398 --> 00:44:52.155 Randy Bob and it's in there. And as Bob predicted, Bob, they show that is 00:44:52.188 --> 00:44:55.736 , uh, Randy's been getting good wood on the ball and they haven't been 00:44:55.769 --> 00:45:00.006 dropping in that one. Did a base hit a shot into center field by Randy Bob 00:45:00.039 --> 00:45:03.986 leading off the third inning for a su 00:45:04.019 --> 00:45:07.365 that'll bring up Dave Granard who singled to left field his first time up 00:45:07.398 --> 00:45:12.896 , Dave having a productive World Series there as his father encourages him 00:45:12.929 --> 00:45:18.195 , a left hander and a jacket with no number visible warming up for Boston 00:45:18.228 --> 00:45:23.267 College in the left field bullpen, grand guard r right hand hitter waits 00:45:23.300 --> 00:45:28.236 as Randy Bob leads off first base. Here's the stretch and a very casual 00:45:28.269 --> 00:45:32.467 throw to put the runner back to first base. Conley just kind of lobbed the 00:45:32.500 --> 00:45:38.017 ball over to first base. Randy Bob, of course, had no trouble recovering. 00:45:38.050 --> 00:45:42.486 Now he takes a short lead at first as grand guard waits at the plate. 00:45:42.519 --> 00:45:47.876 Conley in the stretch ready throws Granard swings and misses at an 00:45:47.909 --> 00:45:52.436 outside fastball and the count goes to no balls in one strike on Dave 00:45:52.469 --> 00:45:57.796 Granard, the Sun devils unaccustomed as they are, have a three run lead 00:45:57.829 --> 00:46:01.736 early in the game. Although Boston College has been fantastic in the 00:46:01.769 --> 00:46:06.115 comeback business in their playoff game. They were trailing 13 to 5 and 00:46:06.148 --> 00:46:11.135 eventually won at 15 to 13. Last night, they looked like they were dead in 00:46:11.168 --> 00:46:13.997 the top of the ninth. They were trailing one to nothing and bailed it out 00:46:14.030 --> 00:46:19.425 3 to 1. The pitch, grand guard swings and there's a high pop right up over 00:46:19.458 --> 00:46:23.195 the plate. Everybody's staggering around. The first baseman comes in and 00:46:23.228 --> 00:46:27.626 catches it about a yard in front of home plate. It was straight up over 00:46:27.659 --> 00:46:31.807 the plate and it was fair when caught by the first baseman, a pop up for 00:46:31.840 --> 00:46:36.827 gram guard and the first out of the inning went away and Randy Bob still 00:46:36.860 --> 00:46:43.146 at first base. Ok. That's the kind of a pop fly. That kind of mesmerizes a 00:46:43.179 --> 00:46:46.896 catcher and they stagger around underneath it and the first baseman wisely 00:46:46.929 --> 00:46:50.577 made the call coming in full tilt and grabbed it off saving any 00:46:50.610 --> 00:46:55.807 embarrassment for the catcher. The hitter now for a su is Larry Linville 00:46:55.840 --> 00:47:00.307 who singled the deep short. His first time up helped establish the sun 00:47:00.340 --> 00:47:03.916 double three run lead in the top half of the second innings. Linville, 00:47:03.949 --> 00:47:08.506 another right hand hitter, the stretch by Conley the pitch and a swing and 00:47:08.539 --> 00:47:12.345 a shot in the left center field way over the left fielder's head banging 00:47:12.378 --> 00:47:16.686 up off against the wall. Here's Randy Bob chugging around third base, the 00:47:16.719 --> 00:47:20.046 left fielder having trouble picking up the ball at the fence and Linville 00:47:20.079 --> 00:47:24.727 breezes into third base and the Devils lead four to nothing. It's credited 00:47:24.760 --> 00:47:30.037 as a three base hit for Linville who smashed it off the, uh, fence in left 00:47:30.070 --> 00:47:36.606 center field about 370 ft away. A breezing triple for Linville driving in 00:47:36.639 --> 00:47:40.086 Randy Bob with the Sun Devils fourth run of the ball game and they now 00:47:40.119 --> 00:47:45.706 lead four to nothing over the Eagles of Boston College. 00:47:45.739 --> 00:47:49.635 The devil is swinging the bats here tonight. 00:47:49.668 --> 00:47:54.706 That was the 3rd 10 months ago. 00:47:54.739 --> 00:47:58.526 Linville on third with one out and into the batter's box comes Jack Lynn 00:47:58.559 --> 00:48:02.467 batting right handed the switch hitter now hitting right-handed against 00:48:02.500 --> 00:48:07.106 the South Paw efforts of Bob Conley of Boston College, 00:48:07.139 --> 00:48:11.467 Linville, a short lead at third with one out the infield in rather close, 00:48:11.500 --> 00:48:14.936 attempting to cut off the run apparently. And a called strike to Lind on 00:48:14.969 --> 00:48:22.969 the first pitch by Conley. Nothing in one. The count on Jack Lind. 00:48:25.079 --> 00:48:28.526 Jack comes out of the batter's box momentarily. Now he's back in and he's 00:48:28.559 --> 00:48:31.925 waiting for Conley 00:48:31.958 --> 00:48:36.486 the motion by Conley the pitch and it's way high for a ball makes it one 00:48:36.519 --> 00:48:41.236 and one on limbed, a SU four Boston College. Nothing in the top of the 00:48:41.269 --> 00:48:46.787 third here in Omaha, one away and a run around third base for a SU. It's 00:48:46.820 --> 00:48:53.467 Larry Linville down there with Jack Lind at the plate. 00:48:53.500 --> 00:48:58.436 Conley looks at Lind now he's ready to throw does. So, Lind hits a foul 00:48:58.469 --> 00:49:03.356 fly down the left field line and back into the bleacher seats long strike 00:49:03.389 --> 00:49:08.026 and the count goes to one ball and two strikes on Jack Lind Land has never 00:49:08.059 --> 00:49:11.845 been known to hit two effectively from the right side of the plate, but he 00:49:11.878 --> 00:49:17.166 certainly did last night and was a very vital factor in a S U's win over 00:49:17.199 --> 00:49:22.885 Oklahoma State one down, one on one run in the account, one ball and two 00:49:22.918 --> 00:49:28.066 strikes on Jack Lind Sun Devil shortstop 00:49:28.099 --> 00:49:31.376 Conley takes a lot of time getting ready for his delivery. Now he's ready 00:49:31.409 --> 00:49:36.436 to crank up fires. Lynn swings in a base hit in the hole between short and 00:49:36.469 --> 00:49:40.836 third and another run for the Devils. Lynn gets a single in the hole to 00:49:40.869 --> 00:49:45.296 left field and Linville scores from third and the Sun Devils now lead it 00:49:45.329 --> 00:49:50.456 five to nothing here in the top half of the third inning in the college 00:49:50.489 --> 00:49:53.247 World Series. After the first round, there's a flip of the coin to 00:49:53.280 --> 00:49:58.956 determine visiting and home team. And as Bob Winkles facetiously remarked 00:49:58.989 --> 00:50:02.635 last night, that's the only thing the Sun Devils lost was the flip of the 00:50:02.668 --> 00:50:07.166 coin after the game and Boston college one to be designated as the home 00:50:07.199 --> 00:50:12.675 team. Lin on first base. He sacrificed his first time up. So he's got a 00:50:12.708 --> 00:50:16.967 perfect night going one for one, 00:50:17.000 --> 00:50:23.126 one down, two runs in for the Devils here in the top of the third. 00:50:23.159 --> 00:50:27.807 The hitter is Ron Divini who got an intentional walk his first time up. 00:50:27.840 --> 00:50:31.526 Here's the runner breaking the hit and run at a knock into left field and 00:50:31.559 --> 00:50:35.155 it drops in for a base hit on the hit and run. Here's the move into third 00:50:35.188 --> 00:50:39.517 base and he's safe and the runner advances to second. Somebody is injured 00:50:39.550 --> 00:50:43.456 at third base. However, the third baseman going for the ball inadvertently 00:50:43.489 --> 00:50:49.557 seemingly, uh, stepped on or hit, uh the runner in the chest, Jack Lind 00:50:49.590 --> 00:50:54.945 and he is prone at third and everybody's out. Ray Robinson is taking a 00:50:54.978 --> 00:50:59.247 look. The third baseman for Boston College isn't feeling too good either. 00:50:59.280 --> 00:51:03.577 Uh, was an inadvertent collision. Lynn seems to be all right now, he's 00:51:03.610 --> 00:51:08.836 sitting up and so is the third baseman from BC. They exchange amenities in 00:51:08.869 --> 00:51:13.655 the courteous manner of collegiate gentlemen and we continue play no 00:51:13.688 --> 00:51:18.727 damage done physically to either one. They both were momentarily stunned. 00:51:18.760 --> 00:51:22.675 It's a base hit into left field for Divini on a hit and run and he 00:51:22.708 --> 00:51:27.517 advances to second on the play at third where Lind was safe. So a su now 00:51:27.550 --> 00:51:32.796 with runners on 2nd and 3rd 1 out and Tom Burgess, the pitcher at the 00:51:32.829 --> 00:51:35.727 plate 00:51:35.760 --> 00:51:40.796 that's four hits in the inning for the Devils and they have but one out. 00:51:40.829 --> 00:51:44.787 Um, 00:51:44.820 --> 00:51:49.066 Bob, I have to say this is really an unaccustomed feeling the Devils with 00:51:49.099 --> 00:51:53.977 uh six runs in two and a third innings. 00:51:54.010 --> 00:51:59.416 Here's Burgess at the plate. Stocky right hand hitter. 00:51:59.449 --> 00:52:04.416 Whoops. Time is being called by Eddie Pellegrini, former Boston Red Sox 00:52:04.449 --> 00:52:07.756 infielder, who is now going to the mound to talk to his pitcher, Bob 00:52:07.789 --> 00:52:10.486 Conley 00:52:10.519 --> 00:52:14.856 Eddie is really taking a casual stroll out there. He's, uh, been at it 00:52:14.889 --> 00:52:18.865 about a half a minute and he's just reaching the mound now to discuss the 00:52:18.898 --> 00:52:24.546 situation with Conley and the catcher Bob Maher 00:52:24.579 --> 00:52:28.425 as a left hander or rather tall, left hander warming up in the bolt end, 00:52:28.458 --> 00:52:32.057 but we cannot get his number. 00:52:32.090 --> 00:52:35.095 As a matter of fact, there's two left handers warming up now for Boston 00:52:35.128 --> 00:52:39.776 College and the third base umpire is signaling one of them to come in from 00:52:39.809 --> 00:52:45.916 the bullpen to take over. So Conley goes two and a third innings allows 00:52:45.949 --> 00:52:53.949 seven hits and five runs struck out one and he walked 31 intentionally. So 00:52:56.958 --> 00:53:01.925 Conley is through after two and a third innings. Bob Conley being replaced 00:53:01.958 --> 00:53:07.186 , 00:53:07.219 --> 00:53:15.219 the pitcher coming in is Pete Ford, a left hander at 621 85 and a senior. 00:53:19.269 --> 00:53:21.269 The one thing about the Boston College club, unfortunately, they didn't 00:53:22.699 --> 00:53:25.925 play. I'd say a third of a number of the games as the Sun Devils. So you 00:53:25.958 --> 00:53:30.967 really don't have a fine line on, uh, exactly, uh, what to expect. He has 00:53:31.000 --> 00:53:35.126 a one and one loss record of one and oh, here's Conley getting a hand as 00:53:35.159 --> 00:53:41.316 he strolls over to the BC dugout on the third base side 00:53:41.349 --> 00:53:47.276 for it again. 621 85 a left hander, another left hander facing the Sun 00:53:47.309 --> 00:53:54.287 Devils. He completed one game pitch 32 3rd innings allowed 26 hits earned 00:53:54.320 --> 00:53:57.217 run average of 2.61 00:53:57.250 --> 00:54:01.956 struck out 39 and walked 31 and 30 in two thirds innings and a one loss 00:54:01.989 --> 00:54:05.827 record of one victory and no defeats. 00:54:05.860 --> 00:54:10.796 Pete Ford is now taking his warm up tosses. And while he's doing that, 00:54:10.829 --> 00:54:14.787 let's reveal the developments here in Omaha today in the college World 00:54:14.820 --> 00:54:17.986 Series. As you know, this is a two and out tournament, a double 00:54:18.019 --> 00:54:22.436 elimination and two clubs are on their way home at the moment. Defending 00:54:22.469 --> 00:54:27.626 champion Ohio State which fell before Houston's three run ninth inning 00:54:27.659 --> 00:54:34.557 rally. The Buckeyes eliminated 7 to 6. Ryder College of Trenton New Jersey 00:54:34.590 --> 00:54:40.776 overcame Oklahoma State 3 to 1 and the Cowboys are on their way back home 00:54:40.809 --> 00:54:46.095 to Stillwater. So there are only six teams remaining in the tournament 00:54:46.128 --> 00:54:50.037 this evening in the first game, Stanford nationally rated number one and 00:54:50.070 --> 00:54:55.635 the pre tournament favorite downed Auburn 6 to 3. So that leaves Houston 00:54:55.668 --> 00:55:00.236 Ryder and Auburn with a defeat apiece. Stanford is the only undefeated 00:55:00.269 --> 00:55:04.517 team as are the two that are playing in front of us right now. And that's 00:55:04.550 --> 00:55:10.146 the situation at Omaha as Tom Burgess steps into the batter's box sun, 00:55:10.179 --> 00:55:15.695 double runners on 2nd and 3rd with one out and a su leads five to nothing 00:55:15.728 --> 00:55:20.247 in the top of the third inning, 00:55:20.280 --> 00:55:27.767 barely 94 years ago or by Pete Ford. 00:55:27.800 --> 00:55:32.146 Right. Sun Devils must like this muggy climate. They've really been 00:55:32.179 --> 00:55:35.077 swinging the bats. Here's the next one and another swinging a miss by 00:55:35.110 --> 00:55:41.287 Burgess. This is on a low fastball and Ford immediately gets out ahead of 00:55:41.320 --> 00:55:47.316 his pitching opponent. No balls. Two strikes one down. Sun, double runners 00:55:47.349 --> 00:55:53.675 at 2nd and 3rd. Jacquelyn the third Ron Devine at second 00:55:53.708 --> 00:55:58.916 Burgess in the batter's box waits for Ford's next delivery. Here it comes 00:55:58.949 --> 00:56:03.695 and it's called strike three Burgess looked at an outside pitch that 00:56:03.728 --> 00:56:10.046 caught the corner and it's the first strikeout for Pete Ford two down now 00:56:10.079 --> 00:56:13.686 for the Sun Devils and the leadoff hitter Freddie Nelson, who was making 00:56:13.719 --> 00:56:17.425 his third appearance at the plate in three innings and both previous times 00:56:17.458 --> 00:56:22.787 , he walked Freddie Nelson, a peppery little second baseman for the Sun 00:56:22.820 --> 00:56:28.037 Devils. One of the real important developments on this club was the fine 00:56:28.070 --> 00:56:31.876 effort of this young man. The pitch, Nelson hits a bouncing ball toward 00:56:31.909 --> 00:56:35.227 the shortstop. He has it. There's a throw into the dirt but the first 00:56:35.260 --> 00:56:39.227 baseman digs it out and Nelson is out nice pickup of a bad throw by the 00:56:39.260 --> 00:56:45.126 first baseman, Kip and the Sun Devils are retired, but not until they have 00:56:45.159 --> 00:56:51.405 scored two more runs. They had two runs on four hits, no errors and two 00:56:51.438 --> 00:56:53.936 men left on 00:56:53.969 --> 00:56:59.135 and so at the end of two and one half innings, the score here in Omaha, 00:56:59.168 --> 00:57:06.106 Arizona State University, five Boston college. Nothing A PS stands for 00:57:06.139 --> 00:57:11.956 Arizona Public Service company. It also stands for service. A PS has 00:57:11.989 --> 00:57:16.497 servicemen in more than 200 Arizona communities. Chances are, you'll 00:57:16.530 --> 00:57:20.577 seldom meet one much of their time is spent on preventive maintenance. 00:57:20.610 --> 00:57:24.845 Keeping the far flung network of generating transmission and distribution 00:57:24.878 --> 00:57:29.497 facilities in top notch working condition so that you won't need emergency 00:57:29.530 --> 00:57:34.037 service in the unlikely event that you should need it. However, just a 00:57:34.070 --> 00:57:38.445 call from you will bring a thoroughly trained responsible a PS service 00:57:38.478 --> 00:57:43.307 technician to your door ready to help you promptly and efficiently keeping 00:57:43.340 --> 00:57:47.646 the energy that you depend on coming to you. Perhaps you want the 00:57:47.679 --> 00:57:51.836 assistance of a home service advisor regarding the proper use and care of 00:57:51.869 --> 00:57:55.787 your appliances or you might want the helpful advice of a heating or 00:57:55.820 --> 00:58:00.345 lighting consultant, whatever type of energy assistance you need, just 00:58:00.378 --> 00:58:07.026 pick up the telephone and give a PS, a call. You'll find a PS really means 00:58:07.059 --> 00:58:13.217 service. 00:58:13.250 --> 00:58:21.250 What after the out of the order of die at the end of the short? And the 00:58:24.239 --> 00:58:27.546 we're into the bottom of the third inning here in Omaha where Arizona 00:58:27.579 --> 00:58:31.807 State leads Boston College five to nothing. The first hitter swings at the 00:58:31.840 --> 00:58:36.126 first pitch. A one hopper to Lynn at shortstop and he throws him out, Lynn 00:58:36.159 --> 00:58:39.977 to Randy Bob and it's one up one away on one pitch. As Tom Burgess gets 00:58:40.010 --> 00:58:44.997 the first hitter for Boston College, here's Mike Robertson, the second 00:58:45.030 --> 00:58:48.436 baseman into the batter's box. 00:58:48.469 --> 00:58:52.885 Burgess gave up a pair of bunch singles in the first inning. Couple of 00:58:52.918 --> 00:58:56.566 walks in the second inning. Not nearly in the trouble. Gentry was in, in 00:58:56.599 --> 00:59:00.416 the early innings last night, Gentry came on like we the people though to 00:59:00.449 --> 00:59:06.436 tie the strikeout record with 16 and 17 hitters in a row. Here's Burgess 00:59:06.469 --> 00:59:11.787 pitch, a swing and a foul back. Strike one, 00:59:11.820 --> 00:59:16.526 no balls in a strike to Mike Robertson. I can't get over how quiet it is 00:59:16.559 --> 00:59:19.577 in this ballpark. You'd think there were nobody in the seats and there's 00:59:19.610 --> 00:59:23.135 about 7000 folks here. As a matter of fact, it's the biggest crowd of the 00:59:23.168 --> 00:59:26.057 tournament to date. There's a swing and a bouncing ball foul down the 00:59:26.090 --> 00:59:31.936 first baseline. So Burgess ahead of the hitter, no balls and two strikes, 00:59:31.969 --> 00:59:37.546 Mike Robertson swinging from the left side for the Boston College Eagles 00:59:37.579 --> 00:59:41.787 BC with two hits in two and a third innings. The Sun Devils with seven 00:59:41.820 --> 00:59:48.077 hits in three innings. A su the visiting team on the scoreboard batting 00:59:48.110 --> 00:59:52.186 first. Here's a pitch over Devine's heading back to the screen for a ball 00:59:52.219 --> 00:59:57.247 , 00:59:57.280 --> 01:00:05.280 one ball, two strikes, Mike Robertson, the header for Boston College 01:00:05.360 --> 01:00:10.416 Burgess looks down has the sign starts a short motion throws inside gets 01:00:10.449 --> 01:00:17.186 away from Divini and the count is even at two and 22 balls, two strikes. 01:00:17.219 --> 01:00:24.086 The attendance in the four sessions of the tournament to date 22,323. 01:00:24.119 --> 01:00:28.486 That's down about 1500 to 1600 over last year. But the weather here has 01:00:28.519 --> 01:00:32.896 been threatening all the time. Burgess ready to pitch does. So the ball 01:00:32.929 --> 01:00:36.577 bounces all over, hits the plate and then hits Divini in the mask and he 01:00:36.610 --> 01:00:41.537 staggers back like he took a left hook, but he seems to be all right. And 01:00:41.570 --> 01:00:46.865 the count is full three and two. Devine looked like a, a boxer who just 01:00:46.898 --> 01:00:51.517 took a smash to the kisser and he started reeling around back in the box 01:00:51.550 --> 01:00:55.217 but he's already and here's the pitch and it's inside ball. Four. 01:00:55.250 --> 01:01:01.626 Robertson gets the third walk off. Tom Burgess 01:01:01.659 --> 01:01:07.695 ABC runner at first base and in comes Mick Amick who bounced in for Sun 01:01:07.728 --> 01:01:13.997 Devil fortunes, a very quick double play in the first inning, 01:01:14.030 --> 01:01:16.945 another left handed hitter, 01:01:16.978 --> 01:01:21.327 one on one down. A su leads here in the bottom of the third five to 01:01:21.360 --> 01:01:26.436 nothing over Boston College. The pitch by Burgess a swinging foul off into 01:01:26.469 --> 01:01:31.247 the direction of the Sun Devil dugout at first base. 01:01:31.280 --> 01:01:39.280 No balls in a strike account. MC Amick, the right fielder. 01:01:39.530 --> 01:01:42.956 The Eagles trying to generate some offense here in the bottom of the third 01:01:42.989 --> 01:01:48.247 inning trying to cut into a S US five run lead pitches low for a ball and 01:01:48.280 --> 01:01:53.977 it evens accounted one and one 01:01:54.010 --> 01:02:00.077 Burgess with his control problem is having it almost all low. 01:02:00.110 --> 01:02:03.217 Here's the lead by the runner at first the stretch by Burgess, the pitch, 01:02:03.250 --> 01:02:11.250 a swing and a miss a ball and two strikes that count a batting for BC 01:02:12.139 --> 01:02:16.606 Burgess is just his cap. Now he's settled on the rubber runner has no lead 01:02:16.639 --> 01:02:20.456 at all at first base. Now he strolls off a couple of steps. Burgess 01:02:20.489 --> 01:02:25.586 stretches throws half swing and it's called a complete strike and a 01:02:25.619 --> 01:02:31.905 strikeout for Burgess. That's his third. Burgess gets his third strikeout 01:02:31.938 --> 01:02:36.557 on a half swing that is called complete by umpire Bill mckinley. Two down. 01:02:36.590 --> 01:02:41.026 Now for Boston College, 01:02:41.059 --> 01:02:44.577 here's Dan Zayas, the left fielder stepping in a right hand hitter, a big 01:02:44.610 --> 01:02:51.267 , big fellow. This fella's got Mucho pound up there. Wait, here's the 01:02:51.300 --> 01:02:56.626 pitch, a half swing and this one's called a ball, checked it in time. 01:02:56.659 --> 01:03:01.517 Mckinley calling it a ball as Bob has mentioned one national league and 01:03:01.550 --> 01:03:08.037 one American League umpire worked the feature game, uh, in the night, 01:03:08.070 --> 01:03:12.467 Zsa at the plate, 6 ft 195. 01:03:12.500 --> 01:03:17.066 There's another, there's a strike to him. Makes it one on one kind of gave 01:03:17.099 --> 01:03:22.247 that a half-hearted effort. BC players, a little indecisive swinging the 01:03:22.280 --> 01:03:27.166 wood up there. Burgess in the stretch looks at the runners fires. There's 01:03:27.199 --> 01:03:31.856 a shot, a pop foul down the first baseline. Divini after it, Bob after it 01:03:31.889 --> 01:03:36.095 , Randy calls for it, squeezes it and that's it. That's it for BC. In the 01:03:36.128 --> 01:03:40.166 third inning. The Eagles in the third had no runs, no hits, no errors for 01:03:40.199 --> 01:03:45.175 the Sun Devils and one man left on for Boston College. And so at the end 01:03:45.208 --> 01:03:49.787 of three innings here in Omaha, the score stands Arizona State University. 01:03:49.820 --> 01:03:57.477 Five Boston College. Nothing, you know, p because it's really, we're back 01:03:57.510 --> 01:04:03.396 in Omaha, Bob Ashe and Al Steven, we both just wiped off our bifocals. 01:04:03.429 --> 01:04:07.655 We're known as the bifocal brothers in Omaha. And when they cloud up, we 01:04:07.688 --> 01:04:11.497 have to call time between innings to wipe them off to get the scene back, 01:04:11.530 --> 01:04:14.517 foggy, foggy bifocals. 01:04:14.550 --> 01:04:19.615 Here's Scott Reed who has six runs batted in in 12 innings of college 01:04:19.648 --> 01:04:25.066 World Series play. Well, actually 11 to be specific, here's a pitch into 01:04:25.099 --> 01:04:29.865 the dirt to Scott and it's ball, one Reed had, uh, four runs batted in 01:04:29.898 --> 01:04:34.986 last night with his two homers and then, uh, hit a shot in the center 01:04:35.019 --> 01:04:39.486 field with the bases full in the second inning to drive in two more. So 01:04:39.519 --> 01:04:45.595 Reed is going great guns here for a Su Scott. The number seven on the back 01:04:45.628 --> 01:04:49.126 of his gray uniform, left-handed hitter waiting left-handed pitcher for 01:04:49.159 --> 01:04:55.456 throws and it's a strike to the outside corner called strike one on one 01:04:55.489 --> 01:04:59.345 read down to the dirt at the battery box. 01:04:59.378 --> 01:05:03.296 They're playing straight away on Reed, of course, after seeing him knock 01:05:03.329 --> 01:05:06.195 too out to the opposite field last night, they probably figured we better 01:05:06.228 --> 01:05:10.186 stay honest. A right hander now warming up in the BC bullpen, the pitch to 01:05:10.219 --> 01:05:18.219 Reed into the dirt again, two balls and a strike. The big Scott 01:05:19.148 --> 01:05:23.736 the Sun Devils wearing the gray road uniforms with maroon and gold 01:05:23.769 --> 01:05:30.217 numerals, gold numeral with a maroon binding. 01:05:30.250 --> 01:05:35.126 Seems odd to see them in the gray. Here is the next delivery by Ford and 01:05:35.159 --> 01:05:39.727 wow, he shot that one over everything right back to the screen. Three and 01:05:39.760 --> 01:05:43.557 one to read three balls in one strike. 01:05:43.590 --> 01:05:48.006 That thing took off like it was going into orbit 01:05:48.039 --> 01:05:51.595 three and one do the leadoff man for Arizona State here in the fourth 01:05:51.628 --> 01:05:55.936 inning as the Sun Devils lead five to nothing over the Eagles of Boston 01:05:55.969 --> 01:05:59.356 College 01:05:59.389 --> 01:06:04.217 Maher gives the sign. Here's a very short wind up by Ford, the pitch high 01:06:04.250 --> 01:06:10.807 and it's a walk based on balls to Scott Reed. Al Scotty's within uh one 01:06:10.840 --> 01:06:16.236 base on balls of the school record, uh by Rick Mundy, 51 bases on balls in 01:06:16.269 --> 01:06:22.506 the season in uh 1965. I think it was his Scotty's 50th of the season. A 01:06:22.539 --> 01:06:26.405 lot of things are starting to get in jeopardy record wise. I think Devine 01:06:26.438 --> 01:06:30.526 is closed on total number of hits per season. And, uh, of course, Gentry 01:06:30.559 --> 01:06:35.925 has set a new winning record for pitchers with 16. 01:06:35.958 --> 01:06:40.287 We're waiting now as Ralph Carpenter takes an inside pitch for ball, one, 01:06:40.320 --> 01:06:45.026 Carpenter has been up twice struck out the first time and flied to center 01:06:45.059 --> 01:06:49.776 field the second time. 01:06:49.809 --> 01:06:54.517 The leadoff man Reed is at first base nobody down the stretch, the pitch 01:06:54.550 --> 01:06:58.646 by for the swing and a shot to short one hopper the relay to second to 01:06:58.679 --> 01:07:04.526 throw to first and an easy double play, a quick shot and a double play 01:07:04.559 --> 01:07:10.046 gives the Sun Devils two out here from the shortstop to the second baseman 01:07:10.079 --> 01:07:15.316 to the first basement. I Taylor made perfect double play ball. It took one 01:07:15.349 --> 01:07:19.606 hop right to the shortstop. It was sharply hit and there was no trouble in 01:07:19.639 --> 01:07:24.827 the relay from the second baseman to erase Carpenter two down for the 01:07:24.860 --> 01:07:29.655 Devils now and in steps, Randy Bob who led off the Sun Devil rally in the 01:07:29.688 --> 01:07:33.666 third inning when they scored two runs. Bob one for two tonight base hit 01:07:33.699 --> 01:07:37.066 the center field. 01:07:37.099 --> 01:07:42.557 Randy, a rangy right hand hitter deep in the box. Swings at the first one 01:07:42.590 --> 01:07:46.126 and misses. It's a strike. 01:07:46.159 --> 01:07:50.675 Nothing in one were rolling along here in Omaha. Top of the fourth inning 01:07:50.708 --> 01:07:57.456 , 01:07:57.489 --> 01:08:01.467 Ford takes a lot of time before the next delivery. And here it is inside 01:08:01.500 --> 01:08:07.706 for a ball evens it at one and one to Randy Bob two on nobody on two down. 01:08:07.739 --> 01:08:15.236 Nobody on top of the fourth. The first basement for Boston College is 01:08:15.269 --> 01:08:19.967 almost back to the outer edge of the infield grass. 01:08:20.000 --> 01:08:25.236 The pitch to Bob is inside again, two balls and a strike to Randy. 01:08:25.269 --> 01:08:29.686 Now, Pete Ford, the Boston College left hander is doing a little 01:08:29.719 --> 01:08:33.384 housekeeping out in front of the rubber kicking the dirt around. He must, 01:08:33.417 --> 01:08:37.705 he almost fell down on that follow through in the last delivery and on the 01:08:37.738 --> 01:08:42.205 horizon over the left field fence, a little electronic pyrotechnics as we 01:08:42.238 --> 01:08:46.316 may have another storm coming in here. 01:08:46.349 --> 01:08:50.424 Here's the move by Ford to the plate. Bob swings and there's a line shot 01:08:50.457 --> 01:08:55.224 foul down the right field line foul by about 6 ft and bouncing off the 01:08:55.257 --> 01:09:03.257 fence a long strike for Randy And it makes the count two and two, 01:09:05.689 --> 01:09:10.437 uh, note from Mr V to the effect that if a su were fortunate enough to win 01:09:10.470 --> 01:09:15.336 this game, they would be playing Stanford Stanford tomorrow night in the 01:09:15.369 --> 01:09:19.897 feature game of the only two unbeatens. Uh the circumstances, I say if the 01:09:19.930 --> 01:09:24.546 Sun Devils should be fortunate to win and, uh it appears that a su and 01:09:24.579 --> 01:09:28.866 Stanford have never played one another in baseball before. 01:09:28.899 --> 01:09:33.147 I know the kids on the club are looking forward to a chance, uh to play 01:09:33.180 --> 01:09:36.726 the number one team in the nation. The Devils of course, rank fourth and 01:09:36.759 --> 01:09:40.476 the Indians first. We're waiting for the next pitch to Randy Bob. Here it 01:09:40.509 --> 01:09:43.496 comes and there it goes, a bouncer out to the second baseman gets it on 01:09:43.529 --> 01:09:46.897 the short hop throws in the dirt. But the first baseman for the second 01:09:46.930 --> 01:09:52.567 consecutive inning digs it out for the final out of the inning 01:09:52.600 --> 01:09:57.107 back at Omaha into the last half of the fourth inning. As Tom Burgess 01:09:57.140 --> 01:10:01.196 fires a strike. A called strike to the opening hitter for Boston Cottage, 01:10:01.229 --> 01:10:07.777 John Salmon leadoff man for BC. The next pitch by Burgess is a little bit 01:10:07.810 --> 01:10:11.777 too low and it's a ball, one and one 01:10:11.810 --> 01:10:15.925 Burgess after allowing the two bunt singles to open up the game is allowed 01:10:15.958 --> 01:10:20.567 three walks but no additional hits. The inside pitch misses and it's now 01:10:20.600 --> 01:10:25.385 two and 12 balls and a strike. The leadoff man for Boston College here in 01:10:25.418 --> 01:10:29.296 the bottom of the fourth inning. A su leads five to nothing over the 01:10:29.329 --> 01:10:31.366 Eagles. 01:10:31.399 --> 01:10:35.406 Burgess ready works right through the heart of the plate for a called 01:10:35.439 --> 01:10:40.456 strike. And the count levels are two and 22 balls and two strikes to John 01:10:40.489 --> 01:10:47.217 Salmon. Ron Devine gives a sign behind the plate. 01:10:47.250 --> 01:10:55.250 Burgess agrees delivers and calls strike three a call, third strike and 01:10:55.509 --> 01:10:58.576 the first hitter is down for Boston College here in the bottom of the 01:10:58.609 --> 01:11:04.385 fourth. Here's the first baseman, Bill Kitley stepping in one down. Nobody 01:11:04.418 --> 01:11:08.897 on for BC in the bottom of the fourth. The silence here is deafening 01:11:08.930 --> 01:11:15.326 tonight. Uh There's just no crowd reaction whatsoever. It's a very eerie 01:11:15.359 --> 01:11:21.326 feeling actually left-handed hitter kitley in the box for BC. The pitch by 01:11:21.359 --> 01:11:27.119 Burgess inside, he crowds him a little and it's a ball. One of nothing. 01:11:31.310 --> 01:11:33.310 Burgess working fairly rapidly in this muggy condition. Throws inside in 01:11:36.399 --> 01:11:42.546 the dirt for ball 22 and nothing to count one away for Boston College with 01:11:42.579 --> 01:11:47.696 nobody on the Sun Devils of Arizona State lead the Eagles of Boston 01:11:47.729 --> 01:11:52.487 College five to nothing in the last half of the fourth inning. Burgess 01:11:52.520 --> 01:11:58.726 Cranks fires swinging Amiss big cut by Kitley and he missed everything. 01:11:58.759 --> 01:12:04.746 Two and one. The comp to Kley 01:12:04.779 --> 01:12:08.506 Sun Devils fairly straight away with grand guard pulled in alongside the 01:12:08.539 --> 01:12:14.979 bag of third. The pitch by Burgess is swinging a foul back to the screen. 01:12:15.759 --> 01:12:17.759 We'll pause now for station identification. This is the Arizona 01:12:19.560 --> 01:12:24.055 broadcasting system 01:12:24.088 --> 01:12:27.675 you will own the very best when it's Magnavox radio, stereo, color 01:12:27.708 --> 01:12:32.616 television, recognized best in sales and service is Mah's TV, stereo in 01:12:32.649 --> 01:12:37.135 Phoenix and in Mesa, 01:12:37.168 --> 01:12:41.737 we're back in Omaha with a full count to Bill Kipling the Boston College 01:12:41.770 --> 01:12:45.246 first baseman with one down and nobody on in the bottom of the fourth 01:12:45.279 --> 01:12:48.567 three and two. The count as Burgess gets ready to fire for the Devils. 01:12:48.600 --> 01:12:53.237 Here it is swing and a shot down to second base. A big hop to Nelson, the 01:12:53.270 --> 01:12:56.967 throw to Randy Bob and the runners out by a step and a half. Two up and 01:12:57.000 --> 01:13:02.656 two down for BC Nelson went over toward the bag at second to field it on a 01:13:02.689 --> 01:13:08.567 nice throw. Got the base runner for the second out in the inning. Third 01:13:08.600 --> 01:13:14.987 baseman, Bill Plunker now into the batter's box for Boston College. 01:13:15.020 --> 01:13:21.595 Ok. Everything moving along here at a quiet level pace tonight 01:13:21.628 --> 01:13:25.027 the Sun Devils came up with three in the second and two in the third to 01:13:25.060 --> 01:13:29.196 take the lead. They now hold five to nothing in the bottom of the fourth 01:13:29.229 --> 01:13:33.416 Burgess wins, throws a pop foul into the stands back of the first base 01:13:33.449 --> 01:13:41.449 dugout strike one nothing in one to count on. Plunker 01:13:45.168 --> 01:13:49.786 Burgess now steps to the rubber as he gets the sign from Ron Devi. The 01:13:49.819 --> 01:13:53.996 umpire behind the plate is Bill mckinley of the American League. Here's 01:13:54.029 --> 01:13:59.055 the action by Burgess and it's outside for a ball, one on 11 ball, one 01:13:59.088 --> 01:14:04.726 strike. 01:14:04.759 --> 01:14:08.826 Following this game, there will be only two undefeated teams in the 01:14:08.859 --> 01:14:14.357 tournament. There's a swing and no a check swing and they call it a ball 01:14:14.390 --> 01:14:19.765 and it's 22 balls and a strike two and one. The hitter is Bill Plunker, 01:14:19.798 --> 01:14:27.798 the third baseman for the Eagles of Boston College 01:14:29.509 --> 01:14:33.885 Burgess unwinds and throws one low for ball, threes behind the hitter. Now 01:14:33.918 --> 01:14:39.836 , three and one this seemingly has been Burgess only control problem is 01:14:39.869 --> 01:14:46.817 the low pitches are just that much too low. He's given up three walks and 01:14:46.850 --> 01:14:50.286 a couple of B singles. The pitch, this one is high for a change and it's 01:14:50.319 --> 01:14:56.116 another base on balls. His fourth walk and the second one to Bill Plunkert. 01:14:56.149 --> 01:15:00.836 Plunkert has walked both times, puts him on first base with two down here 01:15:00.869 --> 01:15:06.796 in the last half of the fourth inning, Bob Maher, the catcher now coming 01:15:06.829 --> 01:15:14.829 to the plate, Maher his first time up drew a base on balls. 01:15:15.819 --> 01:15:20.836 Burgess now is moving the dirt around in front of the rubber and finally 01:15:20.869 --> 01:15:24.265 pitching up his trousers and peering in at the plate to get the sign from 01:15:24.298 --> 01:15:29.647 Devine run around first base for BC with two out in the fourth, the 01:15:29.680 --> 01:15:36.326 stretch by Burgess and the pitch and it's outside low ball one one and 01:15:36.359 --> 01:15:42.546 nothing to account. 01:15:42.579 --> 01:15:46.456 Burgess now is, uh, has seemingly having trouble getting the signs he 01:15:46.489 --> 01:15:49.817 really was staring in on that one. There's a pitch that's low again for 01:15:49.850 --> 01:15:57.850 ball two and he's behind this setter two balls and no strikes. 01:15:58.390 --> 01:16:03.906 Tom Burgess, the former junior college, all American from Phoenix College. 01:16:03.939 --> 01:16:09.180 He and Ron Divini are now having a little consultation out at the mound. 01:16:09.189 --> 01:16:11.189 Divini apparently trying to settle him down a little bit. Well, as Bob 01:16:13.609 --> 01:16:17.635 said, Mr dirty Divini can even make the gray uniforms dirty on the way 01:16:17.668 --> 01:16:21.437 back. His pants look almost black. 01:16:21.470 --> 01:16:24.675 Now he's back behind the plate. The runner leads at first the stretch by 01:16:24.708 --> 01:16:30.726 Burgess, the pitch by Burgess and it's low ball three and he now trails 01:16:30.759 --> 01:16:36.385 the hitter, Maher three balls and no strikes. 01:16:36.418 --> 01:16:42.506 The next hitter due at the plate would be Pete Ford the pitcher. 01:16:42.539 --> 01:16:46.675 Now, let's see if Burgess can jerk himself back to a little stability and 01:16:46.708 --> 01:16:52.336 control here. Now fires way outside for ball four and he has issued two 01:16:52.369 --> 01:17:00.147 consecutive walks for the second time to Plunkert and Maher 01:17:00.180 --> 01:17:05.006 four of his five walks have gone to those two citizens from Boston College. 01:17:05.039 --> 01:17:08.515 Here's Pete Ford. He'll hit for himself here in the fourth inning, Pete 01:17:08.548 --> 01:17:16.296 Ford. He came on in relief in the third inning, left-hand pitcher, 01:17:16.329 --> 01:17:22.576 left-hand swinger Pete Ford. Then I bet 12 times with three hits for a 250 01:17:22.609 --> 01:17:27.476 average. Rangy fella waits at the plate. The runners lead. There's a pitch 01:17:27.509 --> 01:17:32.135 , a bouncing ball in the hole between 2nd and 1st. The play by Bob and he 01:17:32.168 --> 01:17:36.326 throws to Burgess covering and gets the out for the inning. It was a 01:17:36.359 --> 01:17:40.737 bouncing ball between 1st and 2nd that was fielded by Randy Bob Burgess 01:17:40.770 --> 01:17:44.916 covered and the throw got the runner to retire Boston College here in the 01:17:44.949 --> 01:17:50.126 fourth inning. And so it's no runs, no hits, no errors. Two men left on 01:17:50.159 --> 01:17:54.456 for Boston College and at the end of four complete innings of play here in 01:17:54.489 --> 01:17:59.055 Omaha at the college World Series, the score reads Arizona State 01:17:59.088 --> 01:18:05.546 University. Five Boston College nothing. 01:18:05.579 --> 01:18:09.476 We're back in Omaha and for play by play action. The gentleman who is 01:18:09.509 --> 01:18:13.777 doing a SU baseball now will be doing a SU football in the fall and 01:18:13.810 --> 01:18:19.866 basketball in the winter. The inimitable Bob Baer 01:18:19.899 --> 01:18:24.385 Dave Granard deleted off for Arizona State, the A su third baseman he 01:18:24.418 --> 01:18:27.385 moved to play in the top of inning. Number five in the first pitch to Dave 01:18:27.418 --> 01:18:33.756 inside for ball grand with a hit in two trips tonight and has scored a run. 01:18:33.789 --> 01:18:36.756 You'll be followed the plate in this frame by Larry Lyndville and Jack 01:18:36.789 --> 01:18:41.506 Lynn Pete Ford left hander who came in in relief for Boston College after 01:18:41.539 --> 01:18:45.586 the Sun Devils had gotten to starter Bob Conley for five runs on seven 01:18:45.619 --> 01:18:50.996 hits doing a very effective job. 01:18:51.029 --> 01:18:53.765 The left hander swings into the wind up. The delivery to the grand guard 01:18:53.798 --> 01:18:59.976 is high and it's two and all 01:19:00.009 --> 01:19:04.116 Sun Devils. Five runs on seven hits. Boston College no runs on two hits. A 01:19:04.149 --> 01:19:10.635 pair of bunt singles to open the action here in tonight's game 01:19:10.668 --> 01:19:15.567 for delivery, the grand guard up around the chin inside 01:19:15.600 --> 01:19:21.866 and it's a three nothing car grand guard on the season. 01:19:21.899 --> 01:19:27.425 The leading RB I man for Arizona State with a total of 40 nobody on for 01:19:27.458 --> 01:19:32.046 him at the moment. John 32 bases on balls. 01:19:32.079 --> 01:19:36.576 30 pitch in there taken all the way by grand guard for the strike. Ford is 01:19:36.609 --> 01:19:40.425 62, 100 and £85 senior 01:19:40.458 --> 01:19:47.976 broad shouldered lanky customer from Harwich, Massachusetts. 01:19:48.009 --> 01:19:51.885 Here's the 31 pitch beaten down foul and scrubbed out in front of the 01:19:51.918 --> 01:19:58.916 plate where it's retrieved by catcher Bob Marr file all the way 01:19:58.949 --> 01:20:04.015 and a baseball return to the mound by flight umpire Bill mckinley Henry 01:20:04.048 --> 01:20:08.555 Roundtree, the umpire at first base Don Carruthers at second and Joe 01:20:08.588 --> 01:20:14.595 Stanning at third defensively. Boston College was Bill Kitley at first 01:20:14.628 --> 01:20:19.326 base, Mike Robertson at second ed o'neill at shortstop and Bill Plunker. 01:20:19.359 --> 01:20:25.305 The third baseman on the mound. Pete Ford delivers 31 misses rather three 01:20:25.338 --> 01:20:29.406 and two pitch misses and Dave Granard is on with a base on balls the first 01:20:29.439 --> 01:20:33.126 issued by Ford. So the Sun Devils have their leadoff hitter on in the 01:20:33.159 --> 01:20:39.647 fifth inning, Larry Lindell who has a single and a AAA run batted in and 01:20:39.680 --> 01:20:44.675 two runs scored for the Sun Devils here tonight and has gone two for five 01:20:44.708 --> 01:20:48.046 in college World Series competition 01:20:48.079 --> 01:20:52.826 right handed hitting Sutter fielder. 01:20:52.859 --> 01:20:58.036 Larry, well back in the batter's box first pitch in there for a strike 01:20:58.069 --> 01:21:02.206 fastball at the knees. Dave Granard edging away from first base for the 01:21:02.239 --> 01:21:05.147 pitch, 01:21:05.180 --> 01:21:10.626 Sanda Rose attempt to use the hit and run frequently and have had fair to 01:21:10.659 --> 01:21:16.055 middling success with it from time to time 01:21:16.088 --> 01:21:20.265 on one. The canal from the stretch board delivers swing in a me. The 01:21:20.298 --> 01:21:25.456 runner was not moving on that as Linville went for a breaking pitch and no 01:21:25.489 --> 01:21:29.546 contact 01:21:29.579 --> 01:21:35.116 Larry Lyn Bell from Bellingham, Washington played last year for Mesa 01:21:35.149 --> 01:21:41.487 Colorado JC where he earned all America honors in the JC ranks 01:21:41.520 --> 01:21:46.487 6 ft, 100 and £75 junior history major at a su swings and fouls the next 01:21:46.520 --> 01:21:53.706 pitch back to the screen. 01:21:53.739 --> 01:21:56.196 Oh and two 01:21:56.229 --> 01:21:59.976 for very composed out on the hill, 01:22:00.009 --> 01:22:06.476 Bob Conley, the BC starting pitcher got the Sun Devils out without damage 01:22:06.509 --> 01:22:11.586 in the first inning. Then they tied to him for seven base hits over span 01:22:11.619 --> 01:22:15.425 of the next couple of times 01:22:15.458 --> 01:22:19.845 and Ford working effectively in relief as issued a base on balls to Dave 01:22:19.878 --> 01:22:23.156 Granard to open the action. I was an oh and oh and two council in the next 01:22:23.189 --> 01:22:25.397 pitch inside 01:22:25.430 --> 01:22:30.866 way inside. In fact, then Mar alertly coping with it 01:22:30.899 --> 01:22:36.326 in the outfield. The Eagles with Dan Zysk in left John Salmon in center 01:22:36.359 --> 01:22:41.706 and Mick Amick in right, right. 01:22:41.739 --> 01:22:45.916 Boston College into this game with a record of 14 victories, five defeats 01:22:45.949 --> 01:22:51.666 and three ties. The district one champion rated 19th in the nation. 01:22:51.699 --> 01:22:54.305 Linville looks at the pitch that misses the strike zone and the count 01:22:54.338 --> 01:22:58.765 levels at two and two 01:22:58.798 --> 01:23:05.626 and of course, the Eagles last night or yesterday defeating Rider 3 to 1 01:23:05.659 --> 01:23:10.226 for one victory here at Omaha 01:23:10.259 --> 01:23:15.897 Sun Devils nationally. Fourth ranked the Eagles 19th 01:23:15.930 --> 01:23:19.446 from the stretch for eyes. The runner at first base comes to the plate 01:23:19.479 --> 01:23:22.265 with a pitch ground ball down toward the third baseman. I put it to second 01:23:22.298 --> 01:23:27.976 base and no relay as Lynn rather grand guard comes barreling into second 01:23:28.009 --> 01:23:32.746 base and a little bit of a piggyback ride for Mike Robinson. Robertson 01:23:32.779 --> 01:23:37.467 grand guard retired at second and effectively breaking up any possibility 01:23:37.500 --> 01:23:40.265 of the double play might not have been too good a chance anyway, as the 01:23:40.298 --> 01:23:45.876 ball hit to the third baseman only at about medium speed, rolling down 01:23:45.909 --> 01:23:48.857 that way and around the horn, they might not have gotten the speedy Larry 01:23:48.890 --> 01:23:53.237 Lyndville, but Granard taking no chances, took the second sector 01:23:53.270 --> 01:23:58.060 thoroughly out of the plane wound up on him, draped around his neck. 01:23:58.289 --> 01:24:00.289 Glenville on at first with a fielder's choice 01:24:04.208 --> 01:24:06.906 Jacklyn 01:24:06.939 --> 01:24:10.147 switch hitter batting right, 01:24:10.180 --> 01:24:14.626 a hit in one official trip. Tonight swings and grounds one to the left 01:24:14.659 --> 01:24:18.626 side. Big hop to the third baseman to second for the first relay. Bad 01:24:18.659 --> 01:24:24.996 throw gets away and I don't think we'll have an error charged on that. 01:24:25.029 --> 01:24:27.866 Although somebody yelled out E four on the relay, but they forced the 01:24:27.899 --> 01:24:32.036 runner at second base. There's no advance or no necessity for charging an 01:24:32.069 --> 01:24:36.006 error. I would not think 01:24:36.039 --> 01:24:40.376 so. Again, our ground balls to the third baseman forces a Sun double 01:24:40.409 --> 01:24:44.385 runner at second. This time, Robertson was able to get the relay throw 01:24:44.418 --> 01:24:47.546 away, but he might have gotten a little gun shy after his encounter with 01:24:47.579 --> 01:24:51.626 grand guard because he threw wide catcher backing up the play and uh, no 01:24:51.659 --> 01:24:55.765 advance 01:24:55.798 --> 01:24:58.296 to God 01:24:58.329 --> 01:25:04.237 Ron Domini stepping up. There is a base on balls and a single gonna run 01:25:04.270 --> 01:25:07.345 scored here this evening 01:25:07.378 --> 01:25:14.256 run with three hits in series competition 01:25:14.289 --> 01:25:17.076 on the hill. The left hander Pete for it. Now with two out looks at the 01:25:17.109 --> 01:25:23.199 runner delivers, Deviney swings on a pitch and on the fists doesn't get it. 01:25:25.850 --> 01:25:27.850 Second appearance here at Omaha for Arizona State's forces 01:25:32.899 --> 01:25:36.675 leading Boston College five nothing with two outs here in the start of the 01:25:36.708 --> 01:25:41.226 fifth. The Sun Devils, the visiting team in this contest, 01:25:41.259 --> 01:25:47.906 Ford delivers on one fouled away to the right side by Devo 01:25:47.939 --> 01:25:55.939 in the American League. White Sox blanked to Senator six. 01:25:57.088 --> 01:26:01.055 Kansas City shut out Baltimore one to nothing. The Yankees defeated the 01:26:01.088 --> 01:26:04.217 Red Sox 5 to 3 after seven innings of the first game in Anaheim, 01:26:04.250 --> 01:26:08.836 California leading Cleveland 8 to 2. 01:26:08.869 --> 01:26:12.425 Detroit and Minnesota. I don't believe we have a final on that. Al perhaps 01:26:12.458 --> 01:26:17.277 you could check that for us if you will 01:26:17.310 --> 01:26:24.675 delivery to Divini. And the count goes to a ball and two strikes 01:26:24.708 --> 01:26:29.515 in the National League. First of two, the Reds beat the Mets six to 01:26:29.548 --> 01:26:34.647 nothing but New York came back to take the nightcap 7 to 3. San Francisco 01:26:34.680 --> 01:26:37.406 and Houston were locked up at two a piece in the ninth of our latest 01:26:37.439 --> 01:26:42.937 report. The Cardinals down the Pirates. So throw over to first base and 01:26:42.970 --> 01:26:47.626 diving back in safely is Jack Lynn. And again, we have Sun double runners 01:26:47.659 --> 01:26:54.156 and BC infielders all intertwined and a good load of dirt on the front of 01:26:54.189 --> 01:26:59.456 the white uniform of Bill kit, the BC first baseman, 01:26:59.489 --> 01:27:04.166 one and two. The count to Sun double catcher Ron Tani two out in the run 01:27:04.199 --> 01:27:07.586 around at first base 01:27:07.619 --> 01:27:15.619 after five innings. Minnesota leading Detroit 5 to 1 01:27:16.109 --> 01:27:19.237 in a day game in the National League. The Cubs edge the Dodgers 3 to 2 01:27:19.270 --> 01:27:22.467 next pitch to Divini is high and the count levels, two balls, two strikes. 01:27:22.500 --> 01:27:26.036 There are two out runner on at first base. Sun level scored three runs in 01:27:26.069 --> 01:27:30.906 the second inning, two in the third to lead it five nothing. 01:27:30.939 --> 01:27:35.015 Tom Burgess fighting his control of it tonight has allowed only two hits. 01:27:35.048 --> 01:27:41.046 The first two eagle batsmen to face him butting successfully for base hit 01:27:41.079 --> 01:27:44.385 was given up five bases on balls and struck out four ford. The second 01:27:44.418 --> 01:27:46.956 pitcher to appear here for Boston, the runner on his way, a swing and a 01:27:46.989 --> 01:27:49.817 fly ball in the straight away center field just back on the edge of the 01:27:49.850 --> 01:27:52.996 outfield grass going back for it as the second baseman can't hang on, 01:27:53.029 --> 01:27:56.726 drops the ball. And the runner Lynn held up at third base after making his 01:27:56.759 --> 01:28:00.196 turn and heading toward the plate that came in quickly and let's check for 01:28:00.229 --> 01:28:03.256 the ruling on that. It was second baseman Mike Robertson going back to the 01:28:03.289 --> 01:28:07.687 grass, uh straight away from the plate, a tough play as he had his back 01:28:07.720 --> 01:28:10.527 squarely to the plate going out on that one, got his glove on, it didn't 01:28:10.560 --> 01:28:14.326 hold it and they roll it a base hit 01:28:14.359 --> 01:28:18.656 first base hit for the Sun Devils and one of the rather scratchy variety 01:28:18.689 --> 01:28:22.626 off off Pete Ford. 01:28:22.659 --> 01:28:27.135 They got to his predecessor starter Bob Conley for seven hits in all five 01:28:27.168 --> 01:28:29.246 runs. 01:28:29.279 --> 01:28:34.067 It was 01:28:34.100 --> 01:28:38.976 better is Tom Burgess Burgess over for one. He had a sacrifice fly and 01:28:39.009 --> 01:28:43.336 drove in the Sun Devils first run in the second inning. Caught looking at 01:28:43.369 --> 01:28:48.357 a call, third strike in the third Burgess now with a chance to batten his 01:28:48.390 --> 01:28:51.836 lead a bit with runners at 2nd and 3rd. 01:28:51.869 --> 01:28:57.956 As do many moved into second on that little pop fly 01:28:57.989 --> 01:29:01.586 and Jaclyn on around the third. 01:29:01.619 --> 01:29:05.406 Oh and one, 01:29:05.439 --> 01:29:10.737 here's the Tom Burgess Ford delivers swing and a line shot up the middle 01:29:10.770 --> 01:29:14.906 base hit one run will score. Here's the any rounding third base on his way 01:29:14.939 --> 01:29:20.277 to the plate in there sliding safely, a throw down to second. They got him. 01:29:20.310 --> 01:29:24.506 So Burgess singles drives in a pair of runs and trying to advance on the 01:29:24.539 --> 01:29:29.385 throat of the plate is thrown out at second base, center fielder to the 01:29:29.418 --> 01:29:34.437 catcher to the second baseman. 01:29:34.470 --> 01:29:38.487 So the Sun Devils are retired here in the top of the fifth inning, but 01:29:38.520 --> 01:29:46.126 they get two more runs to make it a seven nothing lead on one hit. There 01:29:46.159 --> 01:29:50.586 were no base correction to head. 01:29:50.619 --> 01:29:52.937 There were 01:29:52.970 --> 01:30:00.970 no BC errors and no base runners left and after 4.5 innings of play to 01:30:01.119 --> 01:30:06.906 score Arizona State seven, Boston College, nothing friends. Fun and food. 01:30:06.939 --> 01:30:11.226 A good recipe for. 01:30:11.259 --> 01:30:19.107 I understand the first up bottom of the fifth here in game number eight of 01:30:19.140 --> 01:30:23.175 the college World series. Second for the Sun Devils leadoff hitter Ed 01:30:23.208 --> 01:30:26.036 o'neill up there to face Tom Burgess first pitch turn in there for a 01:30:26.069 --> 01:30:31.305 strike. Top of the order for the Eagles, Mike Robertson and MC EM next two 01:30:31.338 --> 01:30:37.956 hitters due up Burgess fastball is high and tight and it's a one on one 01:30:37.989 --> 01:30:42.357 car 01:30:42.390 --> 01:30:46.067 o'neill has one of the two hits of one single opening action off Tom 01:30:46.100 --> 01:30:49.647 Burgess. Next pitch to him is high and it's two and one. Burgess was 01:30:49.680 --> 01:30:53.046 having trouble with his low pitches a while ago. Now, a couple of high 01:30:53.079 --> 01:30:59.206 ones to Ed o'neill B has been very tough. His own worst enemy is not, uh 01:30:59.239 --> 01:31:03.595 really gotten any, any serious damage, but has managed to keep men on 01:31:03.628 --> 01:31:08.770 bases with the base on balls. Next pitch is higher than three and one. 01:31:12.668 --> 01:31:14.668 Burgess and his previous appearance against Air Force Academy, probably 01:31:17.560 --> 01:31:21.027 one of his best pitching efforts in his entire baseball career to date 01:31:21.060 --> 01:31:27.647 with a one hitter and striking out 13 shut up fastball, fired down the 01:31:27.680 --> 01:31:32.175 middle called strike two and it's a full count. Three and two.
