    Here in the UK, Eamonn Andrews was most famous for presenting This Is Your Life. I always thought he looked uncomfortable in that role, as if it were beneath his dignity, and wore a fixed smile to hide that. John Daly looks totally happy in his role - it brings out his 'inner child' when he tricks the panel or makes a better joke than Bennett Cerf. Mr Cerf is right to credit John Daly for the success of the show.

      @@petemarshall8094 Having no inside information whatsoever, and speaking generally of the era, it became known in later years that there were men who enjoyed their life firmly in the closet, and wouldn't have it any other way. There were also those that dabbled, on that side, but otherwise had long standing romantic relationships with members of the opposite sex, and that the women involved weren't simply beards. So it is believable? Yes. But I would not presume to out anyone, even if I had inside information, as even in the case of a historic figure, their bedroom business was just that--their business. That's my own personal take on the matter, and certainly there are those who love to madly speculate about the sexual orientation of others, based on third hand gossip, "tell all" books by former friends that need some spicing up, and the occasional reading into situations far more than there is. So be it. Certainly though if someone came out in some manner at some point it would be fodder for conversation.

Howard Miller had a radio show and would have on luminaries from show biz. Went up to Pat and asked if I could have her autograph, she said SURE! and drew a little Asian girl with bangs and a big smile and her name, and then giggled and said 'Not much of an autograph!'

    Pat Suzuki mentions that she strained her singing voice with some forceful rooting at Yankee Stadium that afternoon. The Yanks split a doubleheader with the Kansas City A's that day. Having struggled a couple of weeks earlier by losing 9 out of 10, the defending World Champs were in the midst of another slump in which they lost 7 of 8, with their win in the first game of the doubleheader their only high point. When Hoyt Wilhelm blanked the Yankees on only one hit on May 22, they fell to last place with a 12-20 mark. (Wilhelm had tossed a no-hitter against the Yanks the previous September.)
    In the 16 seasons from 1949 to 1964, the Yankees won 14 pennants and won over 100 games when they finished second in 1954. 1959 was their only mediocre season during this period. The finished a distant third place (15 games behind) with a 79-75 record and had a losing record as late as September 7.
    Kansas City featured a lot of players who had either come over from the Yankees or who would end up with the Yankees. This was a time when the A's were accused of serving as a de facto farm team for the Bronx Bombers. But on this day, they came within an inning of sweeping the Yankees. Bud Daley [Yanks 1961-64] took a shutout and 2-0 lead into the 9th inning. Roger Maris [Yanks 1960-66] figured in both runs with a homer and a single. But Daley gave up a walk and three singles in the ninth without retiring a batter. He left the game with the score tied. Ralph Terry [Yanks 1956-57; 59-64] made a good play on Gil McDougald's bunt to get one out. But then Hank Bauer singled home the winning run.
    There was no doubt in the second game. The A's scored six runs in the second inning en route to a 10-0 win as Bob Grim [Yanks 1954-58] tossed a 2-hitter.
    Miss Suzuki also mentions that Mickey Mantle was in a slump. He went 1 for 7 that day, dropping his average to .267 with 5 homers and 13 RBI's. That would project to 27 homers and 69 RBI's, not the type of performance that Mantle was delivering at that time in the prime of his career. His bat would pick up during the season, but it was still a sub par year for Mick, with 31 HR's, 75 RBI's and a .285 BA. It was the only season from 1954 to 1962 (and he was injured with a broken foot for a significant part of the 1963 season) that he drew less than 100 walks. And he led the AL in strikeouts for the second of three consecutive seasons with that negative stat.
    It was a rough year all around for the Yankees as they never had a set lineup. Only Mantle started more than 115 games at any one position (143 in CF). Yogi Berra was next at 112 games behind the plate. And Yogi was definitely slowing down. Young Bobby Richardson with 107 starts at second base was the only other over 100 games. Bill Skowron broke his wrist on July 25 and was lost for the rest of the season. Hector Lopez at third base (acquired from KC on May 26), Marv Throneberry at first and Norm Sieburn in left field were defensive liabilities for a team that usually featured air tight defense. Elston Howard, Gil McDougald and Tony Kubek might be found starting anywhere on any given day. And the pitching staff was also being rebuilt. When a mediocre pitcher named Duke Maas is runner-up in wins, there's problems. Bob Turley went from Cy Young winner in 1958 to a terrible season (8-11, 4.32 ERA in 154 innings and was never reliable again. Whitey Ford led the mound staff with 9 complete games: great in today's game but a very low figure in 1959.
    With the Dodgers bouncing back from a 7th place finish in 1958 to win the World Series and the Yankees struggling all year, it was a great season for this young baseball and Dodgers fan.

      Wow, do you know your baseball, Lois! These days many women are baseball fans but back in those days few were. My mother and her friends (back in the 1950s and 60s) wouldn't have known a foul ball from a home run. This old baseball fan is very impressed. I didn't follow the Yanks that closely until they reached the Series, although everyone followed the Mick. I pulled for him in '61 to break Babe's record because he was simply a far greater player than Maris. I was a Dodger fan, specifically Koufax and Drysdale, and I remember the terror in my heart every time Mantle came to bat in the '63 Series. Sure enough, he hit one in the bleachers off Sandy. Whitey outpitched Sandy in game 4, but an error (Pepitone's, I think?) hurt Ford and gave the Dodgers the win. Ford was, in my book, second only to Koufax among all lefthanded pitchers. I don't watch baseball any more, though I played in high school and summers quite obsessively and collected baseball cards just as obsessively in the late '50s and early '60s. But the game's gone downhill for me, and I don't really care who wins now. Those were the days, though.

      The 1959 season is memorable for me, because it was the first time I ever saw a live major league game. In July or August, my father took me to Cleveland -- about a 2 hour trip at the time -- to see the Yankees play the Indians. I will never forget the thrill when, as an 8 year old boy, I got through the runway and for the first time saw the expanse of green and the manicured infield dirt of a major league stadium. Ralph Terry pitched for the Yankees and I think Gary Bell for the Indians. Cleveland won 5-3, IIRC.
      Tito Francona played first base for Cleveland that day. Many years later, his son Terry became the manager of the Indians.

      What's My Line? For people unaware of who Eamonn Andrews was, he was an Irish-born hugely popular TV personality in Great Britain. He got his start as a boxing broadcaster, but he was best known as the host of the British version of What's My Line and This is Your Life. When he died just before his 65th birthday in 1987 it was a huge news story in Britain. He had been married for 36 years and had three adopted children.

      oldfart4751 As I already made clear here in prior comments, I find this topic at best boring. But there is NO justifiable reason for you to call another viewer a racist homophobe. None. No insulting other viewers, under any conditions, ever. Period. Thank you.

      A lot better than seeing a woman wearing flannel pajama bottoms as I often do while grocery shopping.

    Although he is one of the best moderators there is, I really get frustrated with John Daly at times. Especially when after the
    game is played, the panel will ask the contestant questions about there product or whatever they do in their work and John
    won't let them answer. He thinks he needs to answer for them. And I know there are times that he doesn't know what he
    is talking about and is totally wrong, especially about a product.
