Love the way Dizzy pronounces Joey Amalfitano's name 5 different ways.
@arichster Жыл бұрын
Great comment. I saw the comment first but at that point only her two different pronunciations. You turned out to be right. It was hilarious. Dizzy did a great job announcing, talkin about pitching but he just couldn't get Amalfitano right. Love that "friends and neighbors" expression he used. He was really a natural. Would have loved to see him paired with Red Barber who there are two photographs of in the second part of the video.

WOW!! I'm 60 this year and you've made me feel like a kid again! I think to myself, "Could it really have been as good and pure as I remember? Me and my dad going to Crosley Field 1965 (when I was 5) until it closed in July 1970? This presentation gives me the answer, "Yes....yes indeed, friends and neighbors!" Walking up the ramp with my pop, hot dogs and sodas in a cardboard carrier, then we BEHOLD the green...GREEN grass of that mystical diamond! Cigar smoke mingling with the smell of the grass and hot dogs and the crack of the ball as batting practice went on down on the field. (I always brought my mitt) And out beyond the left field fence was a line of buildings (I believed one said "HEINZ" on it, but might be a trick of memory---it was a warehouse of some kind and Lee May used to hit the ball across the street and break a window now and again!) there was I-75 (called mill creek expressway then) and beyond that the Western Hills Viaduct, Clifton Heights where my Grandma lived...sorry to go on, this just really opened the flood gates of nostalgia. Good memories in a tough childhood.

I certainly hear you when it comes to baseball memories, have a lot from Tiger Stadium with the Tigers in 60’s and 70’s!

That was such a great team. The pitching of Jay, Purkey, O'Toole, Henry, Brosnan, Johnson, Hunt, Nunn. The hitting of Robinson, Pinson, Coleman, Kasko, Freese, Post. And then you had reserves like Cardenas, Lynch and Chacon. Even Edwards, who joined 'em halfway through the season, really caught 'em well. And the World Series was pretty good. Believe me, the Yankees didn't take the Reds for granted. O'Toole and Jay were excellent at Yankee Stadium, and then Purkey and O'Toole in his second start, kept it close. And Edwards, a lot of people forget, really turned it on in the World Series.

I'm 67 and have always lived in STL as a Cards fan so I am enjoying hearing Dizzy Dean, who is the Cards second best pitcher ever behind Gibson doing the announcing. My memory of following baseball well starts in 1960 for the end of the Musial years. I remember this very good Reds team well even though I was only turning 8 that year. They had the misfortune of going up against one of the greatest teams ever in the 1961 Yankees often compared to the 1927 Yankees. I sure remember these Giants and Reds teams well even though I was of course pulling for the Cards. Thanks for placing this broadcast on KZfaq.

They kept it close. Only the last game (13-5) was a rout from port to sterm. Game four was close until the sixth or seventh.
@larryloveless2967 10 ай бұрын
Very true. Overlooked is the 1961 Yankees also had very good pitching and like many Yankees teams in the world series they had other players in addition to their stars step up. I did like that 1961 Reds team of Jim O' Toole, Joey Jay, Frank Robinson, and Vada Pinson. @@scottmorissey8915

So different than today. Mostly fastballs instead of the pitchers being so slider-happy, guys not fouling off a million of them because they can't square them up, hitters looking to hit the ball rather than work walks, a two-strike bunt for a hit, etc etc.

Joe A. broke in on a pennant winner in '54, the winter of '61-'62 he was picked in the NL expansion draft by Houston .45's and missed the '62 NL champs. His next world series wasn't until 1988 with the Dodgers, he was Lasorda's 3rd base coach.

Growing up in Michigan, Tigers games on NBC Game of the Week were blacked out but I believe still televised by the local network and announcers. On those days, we had a choice. Curt Gowdy, Tony Kubek, and I believe Joe Garagiola. I really liked Kubek doing games. One of the best

Matty began hitting to all fields when he was with the Pirates. That's when he won the NL batting crown. With the Giants he never produced those numbers becuuse he was a pull hitter. The Giants didn't have any good hitting coaches in the organization in those days.
