I was at this game with my dad. Center field, upper deck. One of my favorite baseball memories. The Stick was rocking when Joe Morgan hit that home run.
I watched this exact brodcast in LA in 1982. What people might not remember is that the Giants swept the Dodgers in LA the previous weekend. No matter what happens, we will always have Little Joe.
Love everything about this, except that umpires strike zone! On Morgan’s second at bat against Fernando, Morgan took four strikes looking. Love the Union 76 and Farmer John commercials. Ross Porter calling the middle 3 innings, the Union Oil auto scrip announcement after every Dodger homer. This all screams of my early teens. Go Dodgers!
a ten dollar book of union oil autoscript could fill your tank twice back in the 60s, lol. Now im going to visit the the farmer in the deli. grew up listening to vin and Jerry on KFI 640
Yep! Before the Foxification of sports tv. The Dodgers especially had a very conservative broadcast format . Scully, Dogget and Porter always worked without a color man.
@@douglaslowe5 Until 2005, with the exception of Scully, the radio booth became Charley Steiner & Rick Monday for innings 4-9. Vin Scully did the first three innings as a simulcast.

Oh, these throwback videos..,I love it. After the top of the 1st, the first commercial that airs is one for Unocal, excuse me, back then, it was Union 76, and they were a big sponsor of the Dodgers back then. Anyway, I couldn’t help but crack up when the commercial centered around a gentlemen that needed “Leaded” gasoline for his car. Leaded? Dude, I was cracking up. I’m in my 40’s, and even I don’t recall any gas being used except diesel and unleaded. Just hilarious.
It's always interesting to look at the sponsors back then. "Datsun, a product of Nissan." This would've been during the transition of the branding in the US from Datsun to Nissan, which was complete by 1986. Another sponsor, Western Airlines, merged with Delta in 1987.
What happened to PSA? Why aren't they Unocal 76? Where's Home Savings of America? Where is Pan Am? Where is Crocker Bank? Where is Mark C. Bloom ? Where has my childhood gone?? 😵😵😵
The Dodgers had the best damn talent scouts in all of baseball, every where you looked around the league back then, there were players that came up threw the Dodgers system. Like the guy who beat Jim Palmer that very same day, The Great Don Sutton! RIP Don-Tommy-Joe & Mrs Scully 🙏 Even with the Dodgers winning the series, what a terrible year it's been 😖
Giants got a little payback after the Dodgers eliminated them two nights earlier, thanks to Rick Monday’s grand slam off Fred Breining. A game I attended with my dad, if only we went two days later!
As a long-time Angel fan who hated the Dodgers.... this is one of my favorite Dodger moments, perhaps only surpassed by Jack Clark in 1985 homering to knock them out of the playoffs.
@@rufuspipemos The Morgan Slam introduced this 8 year old fan to the Dodgers-Giants rivalry. The Clark home run in '85 this 11 year old knew enough about baseball and cried like the world ended. Now in my late 40s I take great pride in mentioning 2 names to Cardinals fans, CT3 and Don Dekinger 😄
I recall watching Saturday’s game at the moment when the Giants found out they had been eliminated. Frank Robinson bitterly pushed away the camera that was panning their bench. The Giants made an incredible run late in the season only to come up short on the final weekend. I believe that was the closest Frank Robinson ever got to managing a team into the post season…. Probably the only team that had enough talent to win it all….
Yes, and the previous weekend the Giants SWEPT the Dodgers in LA : Game 153. Sep 24, SFG (82-71) beat LAD, 3-2 Game 154. Sep 25, SFG (83-71) beat LAD, 5-4 Game 155. Sep 26, SFG (84-71) beat LAD, 3-2 I was at the last game, so I REMEMBER.
I was 24 years old and a Dodger fan for 15 years when I watched this game live in 1982. Just another painful Dodger nightmare memory just like last years playoff debacle against the Padres.
Fernando could've won his 20th there? I don't believe he ever had a 20 win season. This was right at the foot of the peak of Vin Scully's illustrious career. He'd start a 7 year run as NBC's top baseball announcer the next season.
You know, he did get that one 20 winner (I forgot). One of his buddies, Teddy Higuera in Milwaukee got 20 wins that year as well (our team's last such feat). I very well remember Fernandomadia! I remember seeing his no hitter on TV 1990. "There's one! It' a noooooo-hitterrrrr!" Gary Thorne, ESPN Baseball Tonight.
Not to mention the great race in the American League East went to the final day of the regular season as the Brewers beat the Orioles 11-2 to win the American League East Title with baseball's best record with 95 wins.
@@sherryhannah498 I was 11 years old and caught up in a moment I had never seen before. Watching another person cry can prompt an emotional response. The other side of that? I love the Orioles, despite their woes. Living and dying with their play has been part of my life for over 40 years, and neither you or anyone else will convince me otherwise, period!
That day I was in Big Bear Lake with a group of people! Our cooking teacher, Sandie, who was best remembered for a habit of taking off her shoes in a lot of cooking classes (before there was The Food Network--lol!), purposely walked outdoors barefoot--in 33-degree cold weather! And sadly the Angels would not go to the World Series; neither would the Dodgers.
I was there--as a displaced Dodger fan. I'd moved to northern Ca, had a son who grew up a Giants fan naturally. Somewhere along the line I became a "Dodger hater." But back then in '82, before my son and still true blue, my heart sunk. Joe friggin Morgan! Come on. Hadn't he spoiled enough Dodger fan dreams as a cog in the Big Red Machine--Cincinnatti Reds?
@@johnnastrom9400 He was on radio for the final day of the season. I know he was doing innings 1-3 & 7-9, with Vin Scully doing innings 4-6 on their flagship station at the time, 790 KABC. Later on, you'll hear Jerry do a voiceover for Union 76 gasoline for a Vin Scully print. 1:21:14

funny how scully and porter were paying more attention to the brave/padre game then the game they were doing and dodger playoff tickets were going on sell the next morning
The Atlanta Braves were 1 game up on the Dodgers going into this game as the Braves were playing in San Diego. The Padres did beat Atlanta 5-1 before this game finished. Had the Dodgers hung on to win this game, they would’ve had a One Game Playoff with the Braves because both the Dodgers and Braves would’ve finished tied for first.
The Dodgers had another shortcoming in San Francisco in 1991 before returning the favor in 1993. Ironically enough, the beneficiary of these sabotages were the Atlanta Braves on all 3 occasions.
They acted as if they'd just won the World Series, something they wouldn't do in San Francisco for another 28 seasons. They got pretty upset when the Dodgers celebrated eliminating the Giants in LA 11 years to the day later .
don't forget, the Giants were the Dodgers doormat for almost a decade leading up to this game, so it's understandable the fans got a lot out of this one.
Home plate umpire Frank Pulli’s strike three calls of Steve Garvey in the 8th and Ron Roenicke in the 9th were egregiously bad. Both were well off the plate. 2:41:17 and 2:55:09
In the third inning Valenzuela faltered a little bit when Evans single at the first pitch and then Leonard doubled just at the first pitch! It hurt his confidence and then delivered 8 balls and only one strike in his next nine pitches. Nevertheless he regain his poise and threw a solid game but was sacrificed for nothing and the Dodgers bullpen eventually failed.
What did the L.A. DODGERS in during the 1982 season was from September 18 - 29 they loss 8 in a row 9 of 10 they should've won the NL WEST going away I believe they would've defeated CARDINALS than BREWERS to win back-to-back World Series Titles
I love these old baseball games. Keep sharing. I feel like I am going back in time
ABC was doing three games on this Sunday. They also had Braves vs Padres and in a winner takes all game Baltimore was hosting Milwaukee
Ooooh, my first ever baseball heartbreaker, at 8 years old. Rest in power, Joe Morgan. Thanks for the memories.
I was at this game with my dad. Center field, upper deck. One of my favorite baseball memories. The Stick was rocking when Joe Morgan hit that home run.
Starting around 2:53:00, the commentary is pure gold until the last out. Vin sums it all up beautifully.
Dodgers vs Giants on October 3 - something just always seems to happen (1951, 1962, 1982, 1993)
REST IN PEACE JOE MORGAN!
Here here
Little Joe Morgan sticking it to the Dodgers one more time. His HR sent the Braves to the play offs. Man I miss the old Western division.
Better times. Vin Scully is a national treasure.
You said it, Scott. A great ARTIST!
RIP Vin!
I was there that whole final weekend. This was in the midst of the NFL players strike, so baseball got all the attention.
I watched this game laying on my stomach in the living room. Now I have to set up in a sofa to watch a game.
When I think of Vin Scully at Candlestick park was 10 months earlier 1981 NFC Championship Game and Dwight Clark’s catch
I watched this exact brodcast in LA in 1982. What people might not remember is that the Giants swept the Dodgers in LA the previous weekend.
