Manny Sanguillén

Well, it may be out of play.

San Guillen gives it a look.

It is out of play.

The counterball and two strikes.

He also wanted his center fielder, Al Oliver, to move over more to straightaway center field.

Out of play, strike one.

That's the reason for the gesture on the part of Manny San Guillen before Bob Moose's first pitch.

Rettemund has good power to right center, right field.

He'll hit anything.

If Seaver desires, he can pitch around San Gil.

Now Tom Seaver comes to the set position.

Delivers.

And it brings up the number eight hitter, Frank Tavares.

Earlier this year, Tom Seaver lost the game to the Pirates 2-1.

And Manny San Guillen drove in both of the Pirate runs with doubles.

So, Seaver and Yogi, not forgetting that, and Sanguien is given the intentional walk.

They didn't bounce that high, Del, and it's, it's a play now I think a pitcher-- That's why it's the main thing for a pitcher to g- be able to field his position to get over with, because if anybody but Gullett fields that ball, they're nowhere going to get Rennie at first.

Sanguillen steps in.

Two-one, Pirates lead, third inning.

Yeah, and this game kind of feels like both pitchers are sitting on powder kegs trying to keep it from blowing up in their face.

Sanguillen flied to center field.

Annie pops one up, foul, out of play.

First base side, strike one.

He was hitting in front of, uh, Taveras most of the season.

Check swing foul ball as Rose protects the plate on the two-strike pitch and it's a bouncer into the Cincinnati dugout.

Okay, Rose waiting on Rooker who nods his head on the side from San Guillen.

One and two pitch again.

Swing and a miss and that's a strikeout and that's the inning.

Now the sun streaming through the openings in the upper part of the stadium out near, just short of second base.

So the sun has certainly not been a factor today.

I don't know there was really much of a factor, except maybe in San Guillen's case and also in the left fielder case yesterday.

One and two, Norman out in front.

Blass missing outside, and they count two balls and no strikes.

Now Blass looking in to Manny San Guillen to pick up his sands.

The infield and the outfield straight away.

The 2-0 delivery.

Four really tough men in a row in his pirate liners.

Clemente, Scargill, Robertson and San Guillen.

Three and two pitch.

To Willie Scargill.

He averaged only three point seven strikeouts for every nine innings this year.

He's usually around the plate.

One ball one strike to Manny San Guillen.

The native of Panama.

The next night, coming back in relief, and again they hit him and hit him hard.

Five hits, four runs, including a home run by Manny Sanjian.

Did not get a decision there.

and beat him in his last outing that took place on the 15th of August when he went all the way to ring up a victory over Pittsburgh, allowing him seven hits and two earned runs while fanning six walking two, and again gave up homers in that game to Rennie Sinnott and Ed Kirkpatrick.

Yesterday had a hit and five times up as the Pirates came up with eight hits off of Don Gullick.

The 1-0 delivery swung on and fouled back and out of play as they got even suspended at one ball and one strike.

Manny Sanjian, he's on deck, he'll be batting next, and then center fielder Al Oliver.

Norman with 12-4 on the year, made 26 starts at two complete games, with one against Pittsburgh, as we mentioned, and an earned run average of 3.73.
