Over 200 million listeners of today's game.

This game is about ready to start, and it'll give me a great deal of pleasure to turn this over to a fellow that's really a pro behind this mic. he's been doing the games for the st louis cardinals since nineteen forty six and i always enjoy listening to him i get him quite a bit in my home in louis kentucky none other than harry carry come on in harry thank you very much peewe. All set to play baseball here.

You know, it's a strange thing.

The outstanding ball player on the 46 Red Sox was Ted Williams, the left fielder this year.

In 67, it's their left fielder called Yostremski.

In 46, the outstanding Cardinal was their first baseman, Stan Yusille, and so it is this year, Orlando Sepated first base. Let's pause here, 10 seconds now for station identification.

Saratoga, the authentic fishy behind the yellow label.

The only mix we know of that people built a city just to be near.

Bill Edwardson here twice a day, seven of the morning and one in the afternoon. Here are WGYWGFMs. Connected.

Red Sox, need I tell you, have just taken the field.

Dalton Jones at third base, Rico Petrucelli at Charleston, Jerry Adair at second base, George Scott at first base, rolling the practice ball around.

Jose Santiago kicking at the rubber as he gets ready to make his first practice bitch to Russ Gibson behind the play.

In left field is Carl Yostrinsky.

In center field is Reggie Smith.

And in right field is Ken Harrelson.

You know, a year ago, they said that Jerry Adair talked his way out of a share of the World Series.

Remember then, he was with the Baltimore Orioles. He said to them, in effect, either play me or trade me. They traded them. Baltimore went on and won the America League pennant, won the World Series. Adair was not there to get any share of it. But this year, he winds up with the team that is in the World Series, playing second base for the Boston Red Sox.

Lou Brock ready to lead off, a first ball hitter. He stole 52 bases during the season.

You know, every one of the nine St. Louis starters has had World Series experience.

None of the nine Red Sox starters today have ever figured in the World Series.

So let's see if experience really makes any difference in a short series.

It'll be Brock, Flood, and Maris coming up in the first inning for the St. Louis Cardinalist Card.
