aggressiveness in scoring the winning run on the final day of the American League playoffs,

pulled a hamstring muscle and is out. Jackson has taken the lineup cards up to the umpires,

and Captain Pete Rose has turned in his lineup card on behalf of the Cincinnati Reds.

The Reds are about to take the field, and in discussing the loss of Reggie Jackson,

you know, it cannot be said that one man makes a baseball team. But if you have a team and we have one important man, that's a different story. And that is what the A's have lost in losing Reggie Jackson and Daryl knows. The umpires this afternoon, right back to the first game umpires. Chris Pelacutas will be behind the plate. He's from the National League.

Jim Honachic, of the American League,

will be at first base.

Mel Steiner, the National League at second base.

Frank Humont, of the American League over third.

Down the left field line will be Bob Engel.

Down the right to the line will be Bill Hallard. Warren Giles, President Emeritus. Now, Bill Howard.

Warren Giles, President Emeritus, of the National League, who had the National League headquarters right here in Cincinnati.

During his years as president, has just thrown out the first honorary pitch to Johnny

Bench.

And quite frankly, it has slacked off raining,

and the umbrellas, keep your fingers crossed,

have come down here at Riverfront Stadium.

But heavy showers are due about two hours from now.

And now they are introducing the Reds players.

They do this, and the players run from the dugout to their position. Benz goes to his spot behind the mound. Tony Perez goes to first base. Joe Morgan down to second. Dave and Septuptio under short. Dennis Mickey to third. Pete Rose goes to left. Bobby told him to center. Cedar Geronimo and right. And Jack Billingham, strides to the mound. Winner of the third game of the World Series. And for the last game of the World Series, let's call to the microphone, the voice of the Oakland Athletics. And I think he's got his fingers crossed, Bonnie Moore. Thank you very much, Jim Simpson. And before we start, we may not be around here at the end of the game.

If the A's are in the lead, we will be headed to the dressing room.

We do want to say what a pleasure has been working with you and Lynn Dillon
