Dick McCallet, ready to step in now.

Weed off for the Detroit Tigers.

He batted 249 for the year with 16 home runs and not in 56 runs.

The Cardinals around the infield have Shannon at third, Maxville at short,

Javier's second, Sepeda on first base.

Brock, Flood, and Maris in the outfield.

The pitch were underway at the outside for a ball. So the 1968 World Series is underway here in St. Louis. 80-degree weather. Sunny skies. And two teams at one going away in their league. There's a cut in a mess counter pass ball.

And the count on McCulloch to lead off band is one-and-one.

Young man from Connecticut, he started out as a shortstop.

Tigers moved into second base.

He's much more at home there.

The pitch is a ball wide, high and away, and the shot on McCaudet, leading off, two balls in one strike. McCarver working back

of the rat, giving the sign to the fast-working Bob Gibson, and the right-hand of fires,

here's a pop-up, ball over near the Tiger Dugout. It will be out of play.

Shannon came over.

McCarver went over, but it was in the seat,

just behind the Tiger Dugout.

Wally Moses coaches at first base for the Tigers.

Tony Cuconado down at third.

Gitson Regrett. Coach is at first base for the Tigers. Tony Cucciano down at third. Gibson regarded as one of the great competitors in baseball today.

Tearing in to get his sign now from McArthur.

It's McCartiff leading off in the opening game of the series.
