Watchin' Baseball | 1972 World Series Game 4 

'That ump was in the Civil War.' Thanks for doing this guys. You're making social distancing a little more enjoyable

I remember a classic 70s banner in the outfield in Oakland: "Reds Are Downers."

I like how there are actually times during the game with no ads on the screen.

"The sideburns just eating the ears its intense!"ahahah

I'd love to see you guys do like an 80s npb game. Like the 85 Japan Series

Three straight successful pinch hits in a row!

Yo the games were mad fast. Now I see the complaints lol.

Ref the ump's chest protector. That varied by league. Umps in one league had the external, the other league wore the internal. The different leagues were ACTUALLY DIFFERENT LEAGUES!

lol this was so fun to watch

This is fun, thanks for doing this

Please do more of these! I love the commentary

1972 player does something "Ooooh" Lmao they played so differently back then

BIG REDS MACHiNE!

This was awesome, keep these coming boys!

I needed this. Thank you

JAKE STOREIELLI🔥🔥🔥

Curt Gowdy is calling the game.

We ALWAYS scored at home. You are wrong, vis a’ vi having announcers not telling us things. Vin Scully ALWAYS kept us informed.

Thanks for doing this guys

3:39 Julian Javier's name is pronounced HOO-lee-on HA-vee-air.

MORE MORE MORE THANK YOU

Is this before they lowered the pitchers mound?

Easy young bucks. You want to dog the video quality and umpire gear go for it. Be careful not to disrespect legends of the game. These teams are stacked with HOFers. Never forget these great men are a rare few that can hit a round object thrown at them with a round stick.

Go Redlegs!

Jomboy on his phone

1991 WS next?

Im not even kidding, is that Joe West on first?

Jake was so into these first couple and was funny as hell then near the end he just kind of lost interest in watching baseball

"Legs were tight" stares a hole into jomboys head

That umps from the civil war 😂

Ernie Harwell always announced balls and strikes, innings, pitches, etc. Never any dead air, but never sounded rushed. One of the best ever.

idky but that "I was at this game" in the great 70s smoker voice had me rolling

What about the number font on the front of the A's jerseys being completely different than the number font on the back? Can we also mention that Blue Moon Odom the pinch runner was a pitcher!?!

“This is why old people hate information so much.” I know it’s not actually true, but it feels true.

The Cincinnati Reds were stack asf

fantastic idea! thoroughly enjoyed

You guys are too close together.. 6 feet gentlemen !!

“Legs were tight.” “...K...”

"Anyway, I've become kind of famous for my signature catch-phrase… WHAMMY! As in, Gene Tenace at the plate… aaaannnnnnd WHAMMY!" - Champ Kind

What would be beyond cool is if you continued to post clips of past games, doing what you do best. Might I suggest the 1997 NLCS: Game 6 and Eric Gregg’s infamous strike zone.

"We're gonna have a pinch runner, Johnny "Blue Moon" Odom..." A starting pitcher for the A's used as a pinch runner late in a tight World Series game. What the hell...?

You guys are pretty funny, but have some respect for your elders! We knew what was going on in the game at all times, and if YOU had been listening to Curt Gowdy you wouldn't have been wondering whether Morgan was on the move on that scoring play in the 8th. (He was.) Also, the TV picture, while horrid by today's standards, was something your brain adjusted to. We thought it was great at the time. Overall, great stuff.

I love old baseball. I've been binge watching all-star games since the corona scare began. Started with the 1982 A.S. game and I'm up to the 87 game. I watched the 94 game a few weeks ago and that's hands down the best so far.😃👍⚾

Players were more natural not as huge and chemically enhanced as today... much more loose less injury prone,&having fun

No one that was around then to watch this wishes it was more like baseball is today. 1972 isn't jealous of 2020. Bring in one of the players from that game on the phone or to the studio to get them to enlighten everyone on some things. Find Tony Perez and get him on the phone and ask him about the way he played first base. I'm afraid that some of your audience is taking this as looking at the past and comparing it to now and not in a good way. The games of 1972 stand on their own as great games. The ratings of the World Series games have been going down since 1978. There was something that attracted people to watch the games on TV back then, even if you think you could hardly tell who the teams were.

“Gene Tenace at the plate and Whammy!” Champ Kind

Jomboy and Jake don't have any idea, the slightest clue, that people were capable of watching and listening to baseball on tv or the radio and keeping track of things in their head.

If you did the '72 World Series you HAD to show Johnny Bench getting struck out when he thought Oakland was going to give him an intentional walk.

the "intro music intro music intro music" should be the new official intro music for the show

I loved everything about this. You should absolutely do more until the season starts. Please and thank you.

I love this thank you...you have class. 1972 was my baseball wheel house. To defend my generation, we were able to focus and know the count and inning without having Fox tell us.....we also easily sat quietly in school and listen without complaining about being bored. Fun fact: The Oakland A's owner (Charles Finely) made a fortune in the Insurance business. He bought the Kansas City A's and wanted to write off expenses to reduce taxes on his insurance profits. Thus, he spent a fortune on scouting, and his scouts fund the bulk of their talent on this team doing the extensive scouting.

The A's of the early 70's never get mentioned. They were just as dangerous as the one in the late 80's. The sad thing is that the fans never showed up even today until the playoffs started.

I love the ump wearing a gym mat.

As an A’s fan born in 98 I haven’t had many great memories with my team. But thank you for bringing this to me. It’s good to see them boys win it all

I love this!! Please more baseball history!

Vida Blue did not hold his wife at gunpoint. That was “Blue Moon” Odom.

Make it happen! I'd like to watch more old school games.

Way more strategy in old school baseball...not just strike out/home run

The "old people" watching these games were aware of everything. They grew up listening to games on radio. They knew how to STFU and take it in. There is a logic to it all, a web of interlocking patterns - there are always surprises, but the underlying structure has cohesion (like Bach or Beethoven) that allow the knowledgeable spectator to orient herself quickly (and that reorientation is pure joy). It is a conceit of every younger generation to think the preceding generation was "slow" (just as it is a conceit of every older generation to think the subsequent generation is flaky). Love your videos.

If you’re going to be watching World Series games, the full game 7 of the 1952 World Series is on RU-vid.

The quarantine content we all need boys! Keep it coming. Big fan from Australia

@Jomboy Media you guys should watch Joe Rudis catch during game 2 of the 1972 world series

Game 7 of the 1968 World Series is on RU-vid in it entirety. Bottom of the 6th and the 7th innings, and 9th innings are fun.

Enjoyed it. Thanks.

JOMBOY with his hat backwards looks kinda like Silent Bob.🤔😂

Great video thanks. Could you swap the screens so we could see the game better and you less ;-p

1:48 Getting a little loosey goosey 😂

Y'all should do a game from 1973, 1974 and 1989 for each Oakland World series

Whew. Just noticed the date on this vid. How the world has changed

Need more of this

Hes getting more comfortable with his voice on camera. It is starting to sound exactly like his audio-only clips and i am HERE for it

It’s a classic, and every fan should be aware of it, but I’m requesting Game 6, 1975 World Series Great vid

Matty Alou and Felipe Alou were brothers not Uncle and Nephew. I thought everybody knew that.

i never knew i wanted this

I've got a VHS tape called "baseball in the 70s" and the A's had some pretty crazy gimmicks, including those old timey facial hair looks. Great era for them.

According to the book Moneyball, baseball teams in the 1970’s were OBSESSED with players who could run fast. They thought they could win if they just had the fastest runners.

"The ump was in the civil war"....Blaaaahhhhhhhh hilarious!

This was great I’d love to see more

Cincinnati is a baseball town. One of the few left in the country

Love this. Thanks. I chuckled for a long while at "I was at this game..." I didn't even know I wanted this kind of content. tyvm.

Same thing with hockey back in the old days. (like 80s and older) There usually wasn't a time clock in the corner, so if you weren't paying close attention the only way you knew how much time was left in the period (or in a penalty) was if the announcer said something or when it went to a commercial. Maybe they would do a "frame in frame" of the arena clock for the last minute of the period.

Hey guys, can you guys do game 6 of the 1980 world series? There was an iconic Pete Rose play in that game and you also get to see the game delayed for a few seconds because the K-9 units and Horses surrounded the field before the last out.

This is the series that caused the rule change about the number manager visits to the mound without pulling the pitcher. Dick Williams would constantly go to the mound for strategy sessions.

Definitely do more - two weeks of mandatory confinement and need to watch some baseball !

"I'm sure it was just the A's because they were being silly guys" hahaha

keep doing these until maybe we'll get baseball in May

Thank you guys for this content, honestly made me feel a lot better about life right now. Keep it up!!

This is that good shiiiiit

Denver Broncos pay the Raiders a visit three days later.

LOVE THIS. More of this content please.

Lot of fun! Thanks for posting! You guys know nothing about 70s baseball.

This is a good idea jimmy. I enjoy watching these with u and jake since were lost in a void in sports for real life

Yo, you guys are an absolute life saver during this fucking time. Never thought I'd fucking like, let alone need, to just watch some guys sitting around watching and talking about baseball, or just have it on in the background just for some fucking noise, but holy fuck. I'm sick of movies, tv shows, even all my usual youtube channels. Y'all. Are. Lifesavers. Also, Jimmy, your normal videos, your breakdowns, got me back into fucking baseball in the first place. Fucking epic sport. Y'all are epic. Keep fucking doing what you're doing. We need you.

Skip Caray use to say “If you’re scoring at home......” @ 15:08 talking about odd batting stances. Remember Tony Batista’s batting stance? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HqJUVvtuSaY.html Rick Ankiel was a failed starting pitcher. His hitting was good tho so he converted to outfield.

Gene Tenace had perhaps the greatest WS of all time. He singlehandedly outscored the Reds, no other A had multiple RBI.

I don't know if I got a bigger kick out of seeing this old clip or watching you guys struggle through the play-by-play.... Coverage back then was done by guys who were trained in radio so the banter lended itself to the action instead of the announcers talking about what was on the screen. POINTS: --- The coaching staff for the A's all wore the white caps from the team's Sunday uniforms to separate them from the players. Morgan did score on a hit-and-run as the announcer, Curt Gowdy called. "He's off."

Very good very good

Concepcion played shortstop fellas...yeah i was and am a Reds fan..and yeah i was shitting my pants...always hated Clay Carrol..Great stuff guys..hell yeah do some more!..Thanks

If you're taking requests, I'd love to hear Red Sox vs. Angels, ALCS 1986. Game 5.

After my reaction: my 3 year old "I want to see the hamhocks on that guy!" *sees video of pete rose" *she does 20 squats in front of me" I believe we have a winner, folks.
