| Description: | After winning the National League race by a nose, the St. Louis Cardinals take on the New York Yankees in the World Series. The opening games are thrillers right down to the last out. The Cards take the measure of the Yankees in the first game, but New York comes right back to even up the series. Whichever way the baseball bounces, this Fall's classic is a thriller. Outside of Bush Stadium and throngs of baseball fans waiting to gain entrance. St. Louis Cardinals pennants. Two baseball pitchers standing together, The Yankee pitcher - Whitey Ford and the Cardinals pitcher - Ray Sadecki. Jammed packed stadium with cheering baseball fans. Tom Tresh hits a homerun to center field. Whitey Ford singles home the third run of the innings and makes it 3 to 1 Yankees. Cardinals Mike Shannon at bat, and he bats a homerun putting the Cardinals on the board. Al Downing pitching for the Yankees, Cardinals pick up on the ball and scoring the fourth run of the inning. Lou Brock slams another homerun that sews up the game for the Cardinals. | |
