Cubs-Pirates, Aug. 2, 1993 (7th inning, Leyland erupts, Harry sings)

The big blow in the seventh inning was Lloyd McClendon's home run onto Waveland Avenue that cut the Cubs' lead to 11-9. But there were other fireworks. Pirates manager Jim Leyland erupted after Cubs reliever Jose Bautista plunked Lonnie Smith right after McClendon's blast (the count was 1-2). Leyland was ejected. Also, Harry Caray led the crowd in the seventh-inning stretch.

Listening to Harry sing in the 7th inning still makes me feel like a kid at a ballgame……..and I’m a Giants fan

[@gregthegroove]

Yup! I grew up 10 mins away from Wrigley! I used to ride my bike onto Waveland avenue to catch home run balls. Unfortunately you run the risk of dumb kids stealing bikes left unattended even for 20 seconds of running to get balls! So yea none for me or back then, there were no cell phones and my dumb 10 year old isn’t stopping at the bars to call mommy. I’d have to WALK HOME! Hahaha F that dude. Anyway…my point, I live in the SF Bay Area now. Last 15 some years. I love the Giants but never against the Cubbies. I love Oracle Park. I tell my buddies all the time, outside of Wrigley, seriously Oracle is a damn awesome ballpark. Everyone loves Oracle Park in general fans of the MLB!

6:53 "Jimmy Leyland, who's trying to curb the smoking habit, has been kicked outta the ballgame. Well I tell ya, he's a great little guy. " Classic Harry!

[@TheJFerg24]

Man, Harry really made it a party at Wrigley, didn't he. No wonder I loved watching Cubs games as a kid.

[@TheCoreyd1086]

I am a Pirates fan I miss Jim Leyland and remember when he would be up on the steps of the dugout with cigarette in mouth or hand. I also loved listening to Harry as well. Baseball will never be what it used to be with greats Jim Leyland Bobby Cox Lou Piniella Earl Weaver Billy Martin.

[@budahed54]

The possibility of Jim Leyland losing his shit on an entire crew was always my favorite part of watching the Tigers.

[@jeninjeans]

I've been a Pirates fan my whole life. It is so nice to see the old names i remember as a kid. Back when Pittsburgh had a good team. I would always watch the game on the Pirates network, but when they played the Cubs, I would always switch to WGN in the 7th just to listen to Harry sing and then back to the Bucco's announcers.

[@randy6081]

R I P Harry Carey for all of us that had the true pleasure of hearing you call cubs games on WGN for all of them years just reminds us how much you are missed, just to hear him sing take me out to the ball game for the 7th inning stretch again brings back a lot of good memories of watching cubs games for so many years.

[@jurgostuff]

"A picture is worth a thousand words and Leyland is using those thousand." That was Harry Caray for ya!

[@telephotousa]

I'm a Cardinal fan and we loved Harry too. One of the greats. RIP

[@joannsissy4768]

Harry is great really gets you into the game old school,these announcers now have no personality he's missed

[@buckeyeschmave]

So many great quotes. "Let's see Arne, you're going to the track tonight." "Jimmy Leyland, he's a great little guy." Lol

[@sherylannnarvasa6922]

Brings back great memories!

[@kennethlee2278]

One of many games I had to miss that year since I spent my summer at boot camp in San Diego.

[@BlueOvalHero]

I was there. Last game I've attended. Soo long ago.

[@davidellis5141]

Awesome to hear Harry ! 😆

[@johnkeeton8119]

Lol, I miss Harry’s drunken rambling.

[@jerrycoleman882]

I liked watching the tv with the volume down when Harry was on the radio side. He'd call a low outside ball when it was a high inside ball. 😂

[@bcranford714]

Me 2

[@Ironman875]

Leyland really got his money's worth.

[@The_Races_Are_On...3...2...1]

Harry did Cardinal baseball. St. Louis Hawks Basketball. Missouri football. All with high knowledge.

[@edtignor4235]

Thank you!!!! So hard to find Harry. Maybe one day MLB will have these games archived on their site. I had at least half a dozen VHS tapes of games but alas they were no good and I had to pitch them out.

[@MrSamuel2400]

I miss Harry RIP

[@bayfox1235]

Omg great to hear Harry's voice again

[@workingclassrunner]

Former Mariners skipper Lloyd McClendon going yard for the Pirates at 2:11!

[@odieonekaraoke]

@dasfette and Pirates coach!

[@naswiipp]

He crushed that

[@garryrainey6300]

Gotta love Harry!

[@mattf.1233]

Leyland looked old even in 1993.

[@justinroark88]

Smoking will do it

[@dandanthexrpman3071]

He's a great little guy!😂🤣

[@hhscadets0925]

Harry Caray is a Cubs and baseball legend. No question about it. However, I cannot listen to him and not think of Will Ferrell on SNL.

[@tomxconn]

Congrats to Jim Leyland, headed to Cooperstown 👏

[@tylerhicks8251]

Leyland must have been trying to quit smoking cold turkey that day

[@odieonekaraoke]

@Frank and chain smoking in the dugout.....back when you could still do that.

[@mirandabri834]

Way to go, little bubby!! By that you should remember WHO We Are! Love you bubby and God bless your family!

[@ReinEngel]

I can't help but wonder how many of those old folks were still alive in 2016.

[@ChristoherWGray]

Lonnie Smith Thanks for that baserunning fubar Lonnie

[@markharris9732]

This is Craziest and Nuts

[@jimc.goodfellas226]

Awesome title to the video...when I was a kid watching I didn't really realize that Harry was drunk. In this game: "Lou, Lonnie Smith is known for hitting the long ball..." Lonnie Smith hit all of 98 career homers

[@frankhenry9130]

Loved those Budweisers! "Cubs win, Cubs win" (slurred)

[@johnnyb4269]

Post stroke ‘87 his speech was slightly slurred for the remainder of his life.

[@dandanthexrpman3071]

He's a great little man! Lol!

[@feardabeard7635]

#Classic

[@ACEOO8]

HOOOOOOLLY COW Ô¿Ô

[@taco2k3]

9:55 What a ballgame! A one, a two, a three……

[@kevinjohnson-lf3kj]

Old Man Leyland must have smoked 3 packs of Cancer Sticks in this game.

[@StrivingTowardsWhatIsAhead]

Dave Bautista going up and in.

[@user-qr5hp4ok3e]

JOSE BAUTISTA? Bat flip Bautista lol

[@michaelladerer8163]

Not the same Bautista. Joey Bats never played for the Cubs. He started as a rookie 3rd baseman for the Pirates in 2004, 11 years after this game.

[@twanbiz7252]

Love how carey borked the name of Smith

[@pronkb000]

Good ol' Lou Smith.

[@robminmonaca]

A skinny Sammy Sosa.

[@pearldiver1006]

That was America in the summertime.

[@davidzafiratos]

Harry

[@almell3994]

Theres no way he would put tying run at the plate.it wasnt intentional.

[@anthonyhlavinka631]

Harr'ah Carr'ah heee

[@promeitheus]

Lonnie Smith has really long pants He always did

[@synister281]

1-2 count, 2 run lead, pitch gets away from him and Leyland thinks its on purpose. Classic overreaction. Should be happy to have a baserunner there with the tie run at the plate.

[@tony.bickert]

You gotta watch the earlier innings and know the rules for hitting a batter. Pirates already had a pitcher kicked out for throwing inside. That means if the other team tries to retaliate, or hits a batter, that pitcher gets booted too.

[@bigD5172]

Legit Leyland beef.

[@yankee_tango]

If no warning is issued, then there will not be any automatic ejections. What got Minor tossed is he was throwing at Grace trying to hit him. That is why. One up and in and the other was behind him that shows intent. plus both were fast balls. So Leyland had no beef what so ever.

[@ryetim32]

Leyland is 100% right. No Cubs hit 3 Pirates ejected. 2 Pirates hit No Cubs ejected. Bullshit

[@mikestettenbenz8743]

I've NEVER liked Leyland! In fact I hated him.
