He walked him, ball four
The lead-off batter gets on here
in the top of the 1st
Hit and run...
Slow curve, up high...
Tucker sends a hard grounder to first
Musial takes it on one hop
Fires to Banks for one
Back to first...
The throw is wide, A. J. is safe
With one down, up next is Persimmon
Pflaggstettler
To be followed by Jeeberoni Potpie
Here's a high fastball, at the letters...
Pflaggstettler raps a hard
grounder toward third
Mathews takes two steps to his left
Scoops it up...
Flips over to second for one...
The throw to first...
Not in time!
Score it a force play
Speed on the bases helped FOFC there
Two gone for FOFC
It's a rainbow shot toward center
Mays reaches up
Makes the catch!
Didn't have to move an inch
That wraps up the inning for FOFC
By the way, FOFC is 7 and 3
in their last ten games
Morgan cuts on a curve that
misses in the dirt
That ball is trapped nicely by Hays
Morgan was badly fooled by Babson's
big breaking curve
STRIKE THREE!
Joe was a little overanxious
One out
Due up next is Roberto Clemente
Long fly to left
Gunner has a long run...
He's there and hauls it in
Clemente is retired on a fairly deep fly
Two down
Brian Babson retires
the first two batters in a row
It's a routine fly into right
Pflaggstettler ranges over and reaches up
This should do it...
And Pflaggstettler grabs it for the out
1-2-3, nothing across...
Curveball, inside corner, low...
Swung on...
And lined to left for a base hit
No chance to get that one
Palmer connects on the curve...
This one is really smoked...
Clemente starts back...
Now he just stops to look
Palmer got all of this one....
See ya, It's a home run!
Hays scores in front of him
Lifted in the air, back this way
The catcher, Bench, will
take it for the out
So Perry retires Gunner
Jeff Nights will be up next for FOFC
2 runs across here in the top of the 2nd
Swung on...and it's in the
air to the left side
Backing just a bit is Aaron
And he pulls it in
FOFC ahead 2 to 0 with
two away this inning
Breaking ball...
It darts down and out
as Babson swings way over it
He was fooled completely
Bench loses it momentarily,
but now finds the handle and tags
Brian as he was heading for the dugout
That wraps up the inning for FOFC

Just over his outstretched glove

He will hold at first
The ball comes in quickly

Over to first
NOT IN TIME!
That's an infield hit for Banks!
Aaron scores from third!
Mathews takes third
He lays off the pitch
Ball four, he walks
It is a high hard one...
Perry goes on a fishin' trip
Strike three swinging!
That one sailed up and
out of the strike zone...
Perry couldn't hold back
Babson needs one more out
to get out of this jam
Drilled on the ground to second
Taken by Blade
Over to Potpie
Got him!
Score It: 4-3
So that wraps it up here in
the bottom of the 2nd
Morgan leaves teammates on every base
He is obviously upset with himself
We'll be back in just a minute...
Fastball, a beauty...
Steee Rike THREE!
And there's one away
A. J. Tucker offers at the curveball,
but checks his swing
Oh, Tucker couldn't get the
bat out of the way
It's a soft line drive to
Joe Morgan for the out
Tucker never even left the batter's box
Two up, two down
Swing and a miss
Struck him out
Number 63 on the season for Perry
That's the third out of the inning
Three up, three down
It's 2-1, FOFC
He rips a grounder to first
Babson takes the flip from Potpie
Score It: 3-1
FOFC gets the first out of the inning
It's a high fly to deep center
Tucker is on his horse
It is carrying to the ivy
A. J. jumps
It's off the wall
Musial is around second
But retreats to the bag
as the throw comes in
Curveball, in and low
Mays hits it to Potpie at first
Takes it cleanly...
Races to the bag...
It's going to be close...
And...
Out is the call
That could have gone either way
Musial is now perched over at third
Two gone here in the bottom of the 3rd
We want to welcome the NL Post
WWII "Sportsman Club"
to the game today
We hope you enjoy your
trip to the ballpark
Aaron gets a good cut at it...
He lifts it high and deep toward left
Gunner is heading back...
At the ivy
And he makes the catch for the out!
Babson breathes a sigh of relief
That retires the side...
Hank Aaron fails to come
Through in the clutch
That's something you won't see very often
Sinker, at the knees...
Swung on...
Potpie hits it into the hole
on the right side
Morgan ranging to his left...
Scoops it up...
Throws on the run...
And Potpie is out by a step at first
One down for FOFC
Harry Hays is in the on-deck circle
ready to make his way to
the plate for FOFC
Sinking fastball...
Hays swings...
Raps a hard ground ball
right at Banks...
He snares it easily, throws to first...
Out by a step
And there's two away
Fly ball to right
Clemente is under it
He makes the grab
That's all for FOFC
After 3 and a half innings in
NL Post WWII this evening,
FOFC ahead 2 to 1
Curve ball...
Mathews swings and misses by a mile
The bottom dropped out of that one!
A wicked pitch!
NL Post WWII with one away
Babson steps off the mound as
he waits for Ernie Banks to
come to the plate
Banks hits a three hopper
towards Barrett Blade
Blade scoops it and fires
it to first for the out
Two up, two down for the Post-Nationals
We're in the bottom of the 4th
Fastball... low and away, ball four
Babson puts the tying run on base
Not a good idea
Perry watches a roundhouse
curve all the way in
Strike Three called!
That one started out right at Gaylord,
In fact, he started to bend back
out of the way
Babson just delivered a sweeping curve
that just caught
the inside corner of the plate
That ends the inning
After 4 innings, FOFC leads by 1
Gunner hits a deep fly
Clemente retreats toward the ivy
He leaps...
He's got it!
So one up and one gone
Nights hits it sharply on the ground...
into the hole at third
Mathews dives for it...
He's up with it...
a strong throw to first...
GOT HIM!!!
A sparkling play by the third
baseman, Eddie Mathews!
Two down
A wave and a miss!
Strike Three!

After 4 and a half innings,
FOFC on top 2 to 1
