I live in CT and i had to work through this game as a gas station attendant. My boss was a huge Red sox fan I am a Yankee fan, he would ride me about it. i had to hear bits and pieces while pumping gas from patrons. Boss would come out to rub it in now and then, when the game ended he shut the bay doors, I couldn't understand why it was a gorgeous day, then it accrued to me Yanks won. He was pissed I didn't seem him the rest of the day.
Great story
Today, plus 45. Just tuned in. What a day it was. I was in 11th grade. Today, I'm right back there again.
00:12 That beautiful 1010 WINS radio bumper. The 1978 Yankees as well as 1978 were incredible baby!!💪💪😁😁😉😉
😲 omg i had no idea that 1010 WINS did this never gets old EPIC game 1010 WINS rocks i still listen to that radio station
Yes, they were the Yankees flagship station from 1978 to 1980. The only time since becoming all-news in 1965 that WINS has ever broken from that format.
@@epaddon Another Great Reason as to why WINS continues to be on the air i believe it has set the standard for 24 hr information in other words if it wasn't for WINS you wouldn't have 24hour formats not just radio but television also like ESPN or CNN just to name a few
@@epaddon - Seemed mixed, because didn't WCBS Newsradio 88 edge them in the ratings in that period, Yankees or not?
I'll tell u something no matter how much television has changed & technology has evolved it is just boring for me to watch a sporting event its like watching paint dry but if its on the Radio 📻 oh baby I'm tuned in thats just me
@@percyholland5592 Live and Local, 24/7.
The station you know, the people you trust. 1010 WINS.
I was in 8th grade. Our biology teacher cancelled class and let us watch the game . Since I lived in California Bucky's HR happened during the one hour we were permitted to watch!! In '78 I had bet a classmate Lyman Bostock (California Angels) would hit below .300. He was at .299 when tragically he died.
Good one, thnx for all your great uploads!

Never Gets Old. 2:15:37
YOU'D BETTER BELIEVE IT!!!!
I was a teenaged Dodger fan on the west coast, and followed this thrilling division race right down to the "glide slope" (the last month of the season); final approach (the last week) and the amazing "short final" the last game of the regular season-Boston hosting Toronto and the Yanks hosting the Tribe-stayed up all night I was so excited to watch this game and see who my Dodgers would play as I felt either the Red Sox or the Yankees would defeat the Royals in the ALCS, and through my bleary eyes this was an amazing baseball game that either club could have won-I personally was rooting for Boston but what an impressive, gritty win by the Yankees all around and their infield and relief pitching were second to none and enabled these Yankees to "deplane" and catch a victorious flight to KC and open the official post-season at Royals Stadium. Finally, a big doff of a baseball cap to one EPaddon for these amazing posts! Any other 1976, 1977 and 1978 games would be great if you have them! Would love to see the opening LCS games of 1977 and 1976 and game 4 of the '78 ALCS, a very good 2-1 nail biter at Yankee Stadium! At any rate, keep them coming and great work!!!
It's a lot like the Bobby Thompson home run, "the Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant!" We're still talking about his great game and classic home run from such an unlikely source over forty years later.
It was the day after my 10th birthday & you made me cry, Bucky Dent. Damn you, Bucky Dent!
If the tones every half-hour were exactly aligned on the half-hour, the tone (of 1 second, or 1000 ms., duration) would have been ~1,045 Hz. As it is, sounds more like ~1,031.5 Hz. (Sine wave, of course.) Instead, I counted it on average 1.3% down in pitch. (In pitch - and not the baseball kind - first half hour would have been -1.47%, second half-hour -1.33%, third and fourth half-hours -1.28%, fifth half-hour -1.42%, and sixth complete half-hour -0.92%.)
I think the science of where a station's time tones came from is an interesting story in and of itself - whether from pager systems, or what Western Electric or Western Union or GE or Motorola had, or whatever. On NBC's hourly tones, for example, I counted quite a few from various radio airchecks - 732 Hz, 750 Hz, 765 Hz, 772.5 Hz, 787.5 Hz and even 800 Hz. (The TV side, the first and last were heard.) There were even variances in the two sawtooth-wave tones used by WTIC for their hourly "V for Victory / Beethoven's Fifth" time tone (which, if based on the same formula as derived from the "Mutualert" system - which, in turn, seemed to have borrowed from the various frequencies of Reach Electronics pagers, from what I've read online - would have been sequenced a la Mutual's "be-DOOP's" as "45-45-45-52" or "46-46-46-53" - you go figure that one out).
Imagine had the Yankees lost after coming back from 14 1/2 games behind, that would have been really bad, so really the Yankees had to win this game, the same thing with ALCS against the Royals and the World Series against the Dodgers I mean if you come back from 14 1/2 games back you really got to win it all or it's a giant disappointment, so this is the way it had to be.
Amazing!
The winning run 2:37:11 Reggie! Reggie!
Sounds like the opening voices were Paul Sherman, Paul Smith and Stan Z. Burns.
At the end of the broadcast, Alan Shaw is heard briefly for 25 seconds.
@@epaddon - That'd be *Allen* Shaw, but - yeah. I think at this point, Mr. Burns handled :00 in PM drive, Mr. Shaw at :20 - who was the :40 anchor?
WPIX (New York)
Phil Rizzuto (PBP) & Frank Messer (C) 1-3
Messer (PBP) & Bill White (C) 4-6
White (PBP) & Rizzuto (C) 7-9
Fiiiiiiiiive to Four! Messer was great!
Earlier that Summer I told Bob Murphy outside Shea Stadium that it was going to be the Mets and the Redsox in the World Series, (It was another 8 years before I was right) I hated the Yankees and the Redsox were my favorite AL team back then
I Love the Yankees !!!!!💥💥💥💥💥🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆👍👍👍👍👍😉😉😉😉😉
epaddon, this is the WPIX broadcast of the 1978 AL East Playoff-Yankees vs. Red Sox. It never gets old with the Bill White call of Bucky Dent's homer on WPIX. ua-cam.com/video/IowgfzVsXGA/v-deo.html
It's great that we have both TV and radio for this broadcast, and it's a reminder of how great it was in those days when the same announcers would work TV and Radio and rotate off every few innings.
Do you have the radio broadcasts of the following games:
Red Sox at Yankees Sept 15-17, 1978 (3 games)
Any Yankee vs Red Sox regular season games from 1977
Indians at Yankees (3 games to end 1978 regular season)
Thank you for these broadcasts.
Yes. All are potential items for the future. Glad you've enjoyed these!
Bill White (PBP) & Fran Healy (C) 1-3
Phil Rizzuto (PBP) & Healy (C) 4-6
Frank Messer (PBP) & Healy (C) 7-9
Do you have any other Yankee radio broadcasts?, specifically in the early 90s like from 1992.
This is baseball like it should be. You can thank Bud Selig and Rob Manfred for ruining the game most of us love.
