Just hearing Curt Gowdy and Tony Kubek again makes me happy. They were THE voices of the NBC Gsme of the Week. And what a great game this was, loaded with Hall of Famers!
This was the team that made me fall in love with baseball. The uniforms, white spikes, long hair and mustaches along with fighting everyone including each other. Still love the swingin A’s.
Yes exactly, The A's would battle off the field as the players on that team would but heads constantly with being underpaid and dealing with Charlie Finley, But when they took the field they were literally a machine, They were one of the best teams ever in any era of baseball.
I was at this game. A 10 year old kid with my family, sitting in the left field bleachers. We went to both Games 1 & 2, as the tickets were sold as a package, you had to buy both games. The price was $4.50 per ticket per game. (I still have the ticket stub in my scrap book.) Regular season bleacher seats in 1972 were $2.00.
1972 was the 1st season without my Washington Senators. They were terrible, but they were my childhood team growing up 10 miles South of D.C. in Franconia, VA. My sister used to take me to about 5 or 6 Senators games every year. My hero was Frank Howard, a 6'7" 300 lb. behemoth of a man who routinely hit 500 foot homers into the upper deck of RFK Stadium. Great memories.
I too, was at this game. As cheap as tickets were, though, the A’s have almost always had attendance problems. I was seated down the right field foul line, three rows from the Detroit bullpen. Tigers catcher Tom Haller looked up at us surrounded by lots of empty seats and quipped, “Think you guys can fill the place for the Series?” I shouted back; “At least it’s going to be here (Oakland!)”
Remember watching this game on a Sunday afternoon, switching back and forth between the Vikings-Cardinals NFL game. 11 years old and in love with football/baseball. Loved baseball when it was played in the afternoon.
Curt Gowdy and Tony Kubek were the greatest baseball broadcasting duo ever! I'm so glad they give out Curt Gowdy Broadcasting Excellence awards. He was the Best of the Best.
Blue Moon lived in my apartment community in Fountain Valley in the early 2000’s. Nicest man. Very open about his playing time and struggles during and after. The stories!!! 😱
I have several scorecards from ‘68 and ‘69 with all the A’s autographs except for his. I could never get him to sign for some reason. But at the reunions of the dynasty teams that I have gone to he is just as you said. A very nice man and a pleasure to talk to.
@chrisadams8182 two years later in 1974 the day before the World Series opened in Los Angeles Blue Moon Odom and Rollie Fingers got into a fight and Rollie had a six-inch gash on his forehead that had to have six stitches to close it up I hope you will reply to this
Great series. I sure would like to see video of all 5 games. We got to watch this game on TV at school in Metro Detroit. The TVs were generally only used to watch Apollo missions. The Swingin’ A’s broke my heart and made me cry. I met Odom, Blue, and Campaneris in Peoria, AZ, a few years ago. They’re great. All is forgiven.
@@waynejohanson1083 I told them that they beat my Tigers and made a little boy cry, but I did it in a fun way. Campaneris was suspended from that series, but I didn’t approach him to remind him of that. The three gentlemen were signing autographs for the Ferguson Jenkins Foundation. I wanted them to know that I saw them play ball, that they were great players, and that baseball in their era was very important to me. They beat my Tigers, and the team slumped until 1983. They were the coolest team in baseball, and I respected them.
In my opinion, Curt Gowdy was the greatest sports play by play man in television history. He was equally adept with football. Very easy to listen to. Great voice. Didn't try to overhype his call.
72 73 and 74 Oakland A's.... I realize it's only my opinion.... but they were the greatest baseball team of all time. And by the way with Curt Gowdy announcing....the greatest announcer of all time.
And Don't forget they won their division 5 years in a row from 71-75. And if Finley kept that team together who know how much more they would have won. As they were still a very young team.
18:29 “The greatest announcer of all time would know that Reggie Jackson’s suburban Philly hometown Wyncote is pronounced as “Win-coat,” not “Why-n--cot.” 26:47 He also mispronounced “Yeadon,” the Philadelphia suburban hometown of Tony Taylor. It’s pronounced “Yay-dun,” not “Yee-dun.”
I would love to see Game 5 of that series when both Blue Moon and Vida pitched to win the ALCS ! They were my two favorites ! I always asked for number 13 as my uniform number when it was available because of Odom ! I became a fan when they were still in K.C. - the white spikes got me !! I watched most of these games in my dorm TV room at Kutztown [then State College] in PA. During game 5, I was going NUTSSS !!! A's 2 Tigers 1 !! People walking in the hallway thought there was a fight going on !! I was horse for a week !!
You are correct Cause NOBODY HAS 1 game of the Pittsburgh Pirates - San Francisco Giants NLCS FROM 1971 Pirates win in 4 after going 1 - 5 during season getting swept at Candlestick in May and losing 2 out of 3 at Confluence - Three Rivers Stadium in July everyone thought it was gonna be San Francisco - Baltimore in 1971 World Series!!!!
You are most definitely correct. '69, '70 and '71 LCS's barely have ANY broadcast footage let alone a complete game. I had no idea that this existed. Maybe more will become available in the future.
@@marygraffam4281 Gowdy's call of the immaculate reception in the 1972 playoffs between Oakland and Pittsburgh is one of the best ever if not the best, And Gowdy calling Reggie's bomb in the 1971 MLB all star game off Doc Ellis is epic, But the sound of Gowdy's voice is nostalgic to me because its what I grew up on, He was the best.
@@CBrolley he mispronounced two Philly suburbs in the first half hour of this broadcast alone. Was there nobody in the truck willing to tell him to skip reading off player hometowns from the production sheets if he’s not sure how to say them?

...wonderful and exciting playoff series...I too got to watch some of the weekday games at school...which was nice because it was a big color tv!!! We didn't get a color set until 1974..hahh
Start of the A's run of World Series dominance. The end of one of the better Tiger runs in their history. They still had a lot of players from the '68 World Champions. If it hadn't been for the Orioles winning 3 straight East Division/American League Championships, the Tigers would have had a much better run than they did between '68-'72.
If you do the research and there's a video I don't know if it's still on UA-cam but the first base umpire made two wrong calls in game 5 of this playoff series that cost the Tigers
The aging Tigers last hurrah! They put on a pretty good show and came close to winning that series. They finished 1/2 game in front of the Red Sox to make the playoffs. Billy Martin got the most out of them.
Do you recall which year the Tigers adopted the orange lettering in their away uniforms? In film of the 68 WS their unis had solid black lettering with uniform numbers on the shoulder. I remember these Tiger road unis would last right into the early 90s.
@@legrandfromage64501972 was the first year of the orange trim, wore these uniforms until 1993 , I could never get why the Tigers didn't add orange trim with the home jerseys
Al Kaline went on a year end 22 for 44 tear to lead the Tigers to the eastern division title, leaving the Red Sox in their wake. It seems that Kaline would always come through for the Tigers when they needed it most. They gave the more talented A’s a run for their money in this series. Other than the 68 and 84 World Series champion teams , this 1972 team was the favorite of my youth. Great pitching and defense. division title in 72
I followed the tigers closely that year as a kid but didnt know about the Kaline tear he went on- thx. I was at game 5 when the Tigers got screwed by a call at 1st base-the guy was out by 2 feet , called safe , ended up scoring the winning run,, Cash was beside himself and fans threw bottles on the field.
Kaline, Cash, Horton, and premiere pinch hitter, Gates Brown. A's had to play Tigers in '71' and '72' in ALCS. A's had Hunter, Holtzman, and Blue, so I don't remember why Odom got the call in game 2 - maybe Catfish was out. Tough series.
Good quality recording. For the record, this game is in three parts with two big gaps: 1. First 1 1/2 innings 2. Bottom of 4th thru end of 5th 3. Bottom of 7th AFTER the fight and ejections with Hiller in to pitch. Thru the end of game I had to figure out the gaps on a poor radio recording of the complete game from Tigers radio at ua-cam.com/video/EpW2gWc0OUI/v-deo.html
Baseball is no where near played like this now. Stealing bases, hit and run manufacturing runs,not even close. The Tigers were truly a veteran group, a lot the these guys were on the 68 team. The A’s weren’t great as individuals, but as unit a unit they were unstoppable.

24:34 I’m gonna make a bold prediction: The Dolphins are gonna go undefeated.
Yes, 4-0 on the way to 17-0
Tigers 🐅 got robbed in game 5 by the 1st base umpire
DONT WASTE YOUR TIME WATCHING THIS EDITED PIECE OF CRUD. This does not have the bottom of the 7th when Billy Martin had his pitcher throw at Campy's shin bone. He was successful and so Campaneris fire a helicopter bat right at Legrow's head. Too bad it missed him.
Screw cap
Screw Campy
Wheres the fight??? Waste of time. Dont waste your time watching this, the best part is not here
Thumbs down
