It always bugged me on how close Vin Scully & Joe Garagiola stood next to each other when doing the pre-game 😆 Joe's head is practically on Vinny's shoulder, haha!
Wow! This one is great! NBC Game of the Week, too. Can't beat Vin Scully and Joe Garagiola. I watched the first few minutes until I can watch it all later and the piece on Pete Rose was really good. To 'Pink Houses' by John Mellencamp. If that doesn't give you chills you're not alive.
Joe G mentions Cardinals' fans taking the train up to St Louis in his days. What a concept! How much fun would that have been!! Progress is nothing but a myth.
Why was there a doubleheader at Olympic Stadium? Were doubleheaders at domed stadiums common then? Never mind. I guess Olympic Stadium wasn't enclosed after all like I thought it was.
I will watch any Scully/Garagiola game that pops up on UA-cam, start to finish. Just the best
This is the only UA-cam channel that I need!
We would agree sagely.

I just noticed that too.
If I am not mistaken the Cubs only won 4 games in 1985 against the Cardinals. They just dominated the Cubs.
You are correct, sir. They went 4-14 against St. Louis.
You are correct

Willie is my favorite Cardinal ever
Go Cards!
man.....what a bad start for Kepshire 😞 I definitely felt for him as almost every pitcher has that one game where nothing goes right.
This channel is awesome. Keep up the good work.

Do you have the Angels/Tigers GOW from 1984 where Reggie hit one outta Tiger Stadium?
We do not.
Bill Macatee started out at NBC. I sure didn't know that.

Maybe it was the just settled strike. There were five double headers in the AL that day because of the strike.
@@douglasclouatre165 Good point. I didn't remember any strike that year. But it lasted 2 days. And altered the rest of the schedule.
@@stevejohnson1577 When was the roof added? I've never seen any footage of old games with any sunlight on the field during a game.
@@stevejohnson1577 What is it used for now? Did any games ever get snowed out before the roof was added?
The roof was finally finished in 1987.
