CHICAGO CUBS
vs
ST. LOUIS CARDINALS
NBC BASEBALL “GAME OF THE WEEK” PARTIAL TV BROADCAST
From
Wrigley Field, Chicago -
Saturday Afternoon, June 29, 1972
Another rare baseball broadcast treasure is now available on DVD to sports fans everywhere - only from Rare Sportsfilms, Inc! The last three innings of the original NBC TV broadcast of the July 29 1972 Baseball Game Of The Week is now offered for the first time ever on this new 42-minute B & W DVD made directly from the original kinescope! NBC announcers Curt Gowdy and Tony Kubek call the play-by-play action. The opposing pitchers are Billy Hands of the Cubs and Rick Wise for St. Louis. Interestingly, this is the Wrigley Field managerial debut of new Cubs skipper Whitey Lockman, who has just been named to replace the controversial Leo Durocher, himself watching the game from the Cubs private box! A personal telegram to Leo from Cubs catcher Randy Hundley is made public before the game and you'll hear Hundley himself comment in an interview before hitting the game's only home run! You'll also see some poor base running by St. Louis and an unusual 6-4-2-6 Cubs double play. Donn Clendenon and Jerry McNertney make pinch-hitting appearances for the Cardinals and Diego Segui pitches an inning in relief of Wise. Both Steve Hamilton and Jack Aker also see mound action for Chicago.
Even partial-game TV broadcasts from before the days of home VCRs (1975) are very rare. This is the oldest Cubs vs Cardinals TV broadcast known to exist, and now you can go back a generation in time and watch the action unfold once again at Wrigley Field!
