10th inning in KC...

WJW ID: What happens when a judge can't get away from his problems? Don't miss "My Darling Judge," the GE Theater presentation tonight at 9 on Channel 8. WJW, Cleveland. Ken Coleman: Joe Nuxhall back on the mound as we start the 10th, we're still a little shell-shocked after that Klimchock Klout tied the score at 5. Held to lead off, followed by Funk or a pinch-hitter, then Bubba. Held is 1-for-4 with a RBI... The 3-1 pitch is wide, Held takes 1st on the walk, waiting to see who pinch-hits for Funk(Harry Jones: Looks like Nieman, Ken) Bob Nieman will be the batter here for Funk, Held at 1st, nobody out in the 10th, tied at 5-all... The pitch is swung on and hit deep to right, back goes Stephens, he looks up, this one is GONE! Bob Nieman off a very cheap fastball from Nuxhall sent it clear to Kansas for the go-ahead home run making it 7-5 here in the 10th! Must be a pretty thrilling movie going with that flight right now! Here's Bubba Phillips, he has a home run in 4 trips... The pitch is swung on and hit to left, back goes Posada, who waves this one good-bye! Back-to-back home runs here in the 10th and it is suddenly 8-5, Tribe! Nuxhall looks like he aged a few years on those two home runs!(The Indians would get a couple more hits off of Nuxhall and another pitcher, then Bobby Locke retired the A's in order in the bottom of the 10th preserving the wild, wooly 8-5 win) CLE 8-14-1 KCA 5-8-1 WP-Funk LP-Nuxhall

Was Fang There?

The defending World Champion Pittsburgh Pirates made their 1961 TV debut on 4-28-61 against the eventual NL champs for the year, Cincinnati. Before I decide whether to do at least a partial replay, here are some ads as they may have sounded that night on Pitt TV, keeping in mind that I'm not a Pitt TV expert, just one who happens to read Post-Gazette's from the Google archives. WIIC-TV: You've seen her on Jack Paar, now see her for yourself tonight and Saturday! Don't miss loveable comic star Phyllis Diller and special musical guests perform 2 shows nightly at 9 and 11:30 at the Horizon Room located at the airport in Pittsburgh. Don't miss the laughs! Tonight's "Movie Hall of Fame" presentation stars WC Fields in that madcap comedy hit, "The Bank Dick," tonight at 7 on Channel 11. It's a night of encores on the Telephone Hour as Rosemary Clooney and Robert Preston perform their acts from this past season, tonight at 9. Then stay tuned ...
