Jim Mudcat Grant on Tuesday.

Gene Mauch described, as a guy describes G- uh, Mike Wagner's pitch- pitching, when he's on, he throws balls that no human can hit.

The count on Coco LaVoy.

Now we get the pinch hitter, Ty Kline.

So it's...

[cheering] Well, that's been a long dry spell for Tommy Agee.

His last home run was off Mike Wegener of Montreal on the eleventh of July.

A ball and two strikes.
