In the batters box is Dick McColliff.

We're ready to go.

Here's Netmark.

Thanks, Dave.

Good evening.

Dick McColliffe, second baseman, left-handed batter up against Mike Garman.

McCollough has hit seven home runs this year, 27 runs batted in, hitting 238.

Garmin's first pitch to him is a ball outside, and we're underway here at Fenway Park,

with a breeze blowing in from center field toward home and a fair crowd on hand.

Nothing like last night's double-header crowd, but the faithful are here.

The 1-0 pitch by Garmin's strike-called outside corner.

Garmin came up with the Red Sox a couple of years ago, and he's a course with him last year at the end of the year. Third September he's been brought up. He can throw as hard as anybody on his staff almost. Check swing, line, foul, third base side. And it's one and two to mcculles mike's main problem of keeping the ball in the cage for a while and then over the plate but this year he worked on control is fastball and slider worked hard down in louisville out of the bullpen and as a starter. He has two major league wins, one loss, one of his wins over the Tigers last year.

Pitch is inside, ball two, fastball, two and two.

McCallup will be followed by Freehan and Gates Brown.

Let it bat.

Garmin with a 2-2 pitch.

There's a curve that's foul back.

Two balls, two strikes.

Mike does not go into the big, elaborated wind-up.

He uses a no-wind-up delivery, primarily, I imagine, he adopted it to gain control.

More control. Fitches. Pass ball high and outside, ball three. So he's three and two to McCulloch.
