Love watching games on TV from Three River stadium. Love their organ player. Mets fan here! But love watching the 70s Pirates and Reds hitting lineups. Love Willie Stargell's batting stance. Keep this classics coming.
I was a BIG baseball fan back during that time. I recall watching that game on a black & white TV, I was a young 13yr old and ENJOYED ALL 9 innings of that game.....Damn good memories!!....One more thing, that was the last time ANY team would ever PRODUCE 4 20 game winners from their pitching staff.....Jim Palmer, Dave McNally, Mike Curellar and Pat Dobson.... With a manager like Earl Weaver and what he EXPECTED from his pitchers, it's NO surprise.....Earl Weaver..RIP
Only the 1921 CHISOX matched BALTY’s four 20 or more WINNERS.. The WSOX hurlers did it in a 154 game season, two seasons following the BLACK SOX SCANDAL where most of their banned players came from non-mound field position players. As for Pat Dobson, he never ever before that season, and only one time thereafter(19Ws) approached 20 WINS. Some also forget that MCNALLY, and PALMER did the duo for at least 20, not once, but twice = ‘70, &71, and that CUELLAR, PALMER, and not counting ‘71, MCNALLY did the trio once in 1970. Palmer coming off an injury bout that cost him ‘67 and almost all of ‘68, “only” went 16-4 in ‘69’s campaign. McNALLY won at least 20 in ‘68(Comeback Player of the Year after an injury riddled ‘67), 69, 70, and 71. He won 17 and 16 in ‘73&74 before being traded to MONTREAL in ‘75, where a lack of any kind of fastball prompted his voluntary retirement midway thru that season. If ANDY MESSERSMITH of the DODGERS had re-upped with LA, signing a new contract for ‘76, it was a determined to stay retired car dealership owning and operating, and unsigned for ‘76 in baseball MCNALLY that was to be the lone standby replacement lawsuit filer as orchestrated by PLAYERS ASSOCIATION non-playing DIRECTOR/LAWYER, MARVIN MILLER, part of an effort to strike down the RESERVE CLAUSE. The LAWSUIT as it turned out was filed with MESSERSMITH AND MCNALLY’s names on it. For the whole ‘75 season MESSERSMITH played without an LA contract and after JUDGE ANDREW SEITZ struck down the Clause, ANDY MESSERSMITH signed with ATLANTA and MCNALLY stayed retired. What a legacy! R.I.P., DAVE MCNALLY at age 60, two decades ago, dying from cancer.
Something else Grant Jackson, the winning Pitcher in the 1979 world series seventh game for the Pirates played in that series also, for the Baltimore Orioles.
@@JayTemple Bob Prince was the voice of the Pittsburgh Pirates for 28 years from 1948 to 1975. He called 3 World Series, 1960, 1966 on NBC Radio and 1971.
The pirates got hot at the right time. Their pitching was good, but not that great. Bruce Kison turned the series around. The Orioles Achilles heel was consistent hitting, ehicubshowed up in short post-seadom series, as was the case in 1969 and 1974, also. They were close to halving a dynasty from 1966 to 1973.
I was a school kid when I watched this and lived near charm City but I rooted for the pirates and could tell their right fielder was great

I loved those Pirate uniforms and I was a Clemente fan. It was a great Series.
Love the intro theme. Great memories of when I was obsessed with baseball. You know, back when Pittsburgh had a major league team.
So many greats gone rip No 21 great Roberto Clemente

Thanks for posting at 720p Tim. That makes a big difference in quality.
I love Tony Kubek’s mini head set LOL.
Baltimore should be awarded a run for Pat Dobson's sideburns.
I attended that game with my father first world series night game. 4-3 Pirate win tying the world series.

One of the most dangerous things in baseball at that time: batting against Bruce Kison.
"One of the most beautiful new ballparks in baseball." Curt Gowdy laying it on thick.

@M Uh SO ? Enjoy your zero zero games.
@user-gu4tv4hp6s no one gives a crap
Bob Prince (PBP) & Curt Gowdy (C)
1st half
Gowdy (PBP) & Prince (C) 2nd half
Tony Kubek (field reporter)
Thank you. I'm watching the game now on MLB Network, and I couldn't understand Bob's last name.

Orioles stopped hitting after Game 2.
NBC Radio:
Bill O'Donnell (PBP) 1st half
Jim Simpson (PBP) 2nd half
1:03:40 That would be Clemente's 3rd HR of the series but it was called foul ball
But immediately after Clements got a base hit, I was there with my father.
Interesting. When did they change from having an all dirt infield to turf infield at 3 rivers back then?
In 1973, they got rid of the all dirt infield.
The fad at the time

Proof once again the best team doesn’t always win.
Maybe dig up Earl Weaver and try again?
@@tonymaiullo2674 Don't have to its enough to know in your heart the truth.
