Great. We're ready now for the fifth game of the World Series, and the umpires who will work

today's game are grouped around Casey Stangle, back of the plate. The starting pitchers for

the New York Yankees Bob Grimm, still going on with his warm-ups, and the youngster Roger Craig,

who will work for the Brooklyn Dodgers, concluding his warm-ups.

The sun has favored us with its brilliant rays, and while the temperature is in the cool 60s, at least the day is a happy one. And it's a happy one, especially for the Dodger fans,

who came home here at Abbottesville, trailing by two games after the Yankees had won the first

26542. And the Dodger hearts were really singing. Abbotsfield, trailing by two games after the Yankees had won the first two, six, five, four, two.

And the Dodger hearts were really singing after the Dodgers came up with the victory in a third game eight three.

And yesterday's victory over the Yankees 8-5, which has made the serious stand all even at two games apiece, has everybody buzzing.

The sun is shining brightly, and the wind is blowing.

It's a moderate breeze in from left field towards the plate.

The lines are being marked, and in just a very few minutes,

the fifth game of the World Series will be played.

The New York Yankees, Elston Howard will lead off and play left field.

Irv Norn will be in center field. Gil McDougal will bat third and play third base.

Batting fourth is Yogi Bar, the catcher. Joe Collins will be in right field for the Yankees

and bat fifth. This is occasioned by the pull-leg muscle of Mickey Mantle and the full-leg muscle of Hank Bar.

Eddie Robinson will be in first race, and he will bat six.

Billy Martin will play second base, bat seven.

Phil Rizzuto will bat eighth and play short, and Bob Grimm.

The right-hander will go to the mound for the New York Yankees.

Grim's 1-seven while losing five.
