Red Sox @ Reds game 3 1975 Series on Classic

Journeyman · Oct 26, 2004

Curt Gowdy on the call.... Rick Wise vs Gary Nolan

I'll keep everyone posted ... I wonder what the line was on this game?

Any guesses?

Reds lineup spectacular...Bosox not shabby either...Cecil Cooper leading off for Boston strikes me as odd...

My line Cinn -175:think: any takers?

Bosox go down in order , 3 grounders to the left side...looks like they're showing this game in its entirety...

I honestly cannot remember who won game 3 here..

Some people build model airplaines, I enjoy old vintage ball games:biglaugh:

Gary Nolan, not sure if he still is, was a casino host at THE MIRAGE in Vegas.

Before that, he was a host at the Alladdin when I worked there and we talked baseball almost on a daily basis.

Super nice guy.

Fisk just lost one...deep to left 1-0 Boston...Red Sox with no names on their backs...

Zimmer 3rd base coach...Wow Zimmer looks all of 65, he was just a kid ...

I cannot believe this game was 30 years ago...

Seems like yesterday.....almost.

Riverfront Stadium looks huge...deep deep down the lines...back when the turf was cool.

Watching this game makes me want to go out in the backyard and play wiffle ball afterwards...Fish come on over...I have to warn you, I have a nasty curve ball, switch hit, with power and quick as a cat! :heh:

SOB , they just jumped to the bottom of the 4th...

Fred Lynn looks like he weighs 140 lbs ...Joe Morgan up, flapping that chicken wing, looks like he's about 18:toothless , this was pre back to back MVP's for little Joe, about to win his first of two 75, 76.

TONY and CURT are the best baseball TV crew of all-time!

Wish they were doing the game tonight.

Nice to listen to a game again with no wise-ass cracks.

You aint kidding , Gowdy was my alltime favorite... Kubek very good....When Curt gowdy was on the call you knew it was important!

now flash forward to tonight, lol.. Joe Buck, something about Buck I do not like...very knowledgeable he just comes off as full of himself ...and McCarver, forgetaboutit!

Johnny Bench just launched a two out bomb, two run shot....

2-1 Cincy

Journeyman · Oct 26, 2004

Concepcion homer 3-1..

I was just looking at him thinking, how could this frail man hit a ball out, and the next pitch , gone!

Fishhead · Oct 26, 2004

Think this is the game made famous by ED ARMBRISTER.

Journeyman · Oct 26, 2004

I was thinking that too Fish...Geronimo just went yard...Reds getting unexpected power here...

4-1

Journeyman · Oct 26, 2004

Another observation, umps using the old chest protecter...The ump is calling the high strike, not squatting nearly as low as we see now days.

Pete Rose stand up triple!

I wonder if Pete was on this game...

Fishhead · Oct 26, 2004

Pretty sure, as I have only watched this game or listened to it on my 1975 highlight 8-track tape 1000 times.

Could be wrong though, as havent listened or seen highlights of the game for 10+ years.

Journeyman · Oct 26, 2004

'8 Track tape' :biglaugh:

5-1 Reds...

Journeyman · Oct 26, 2004

Ah yes, Bernie Carbo bringing Boston back with a two run shot...first of his clutch homers in this series

here comes Boston 5-3

Journeyman · Oct 26, 2004

Dwight Evans just tied it...2 run shot 5-5...

Funny thing is NBC is using Marty Brenneman (REDS HOME ANNOUNCER), who gave a less then stellar call on a 9th inning game tying two run shot...

Curt Gowdy chiming in enthusiasticaly...
