Detroit TIGERS at Chicago WHITE SOX 7/7/82 Original WFLD Broadcast

[@MrVegasdeuce]

Man I miss that old park...

[@CRStoller]

I just love grabbing a warm blanket and curling up on my couch with my doggie kiddos and watching classic White Sox games. Keep 'em coming!!

[@crabs24]

Drysdale and Hawk were a great combo.

[@bobbyg433]

I watched this game on ch 32 in 1982. Hell yeah

[@etiennescarbinski7890]

Watching the Sox build their roster from 80 to 83 was entertaining.

[@raulgreen8369]

This was the 2nd go around with WFLD-TV Channel 32 for the Sox. After a year back on WGN-TV Channel 9 right 8 years on WSNS-TV Channel 44, 1st 5 years on Channel 32 from 68 to 73. Had a long run on WGN-TV 9 along with the Cubs, Bulls, Blackhawks.

[@mikesquires101]

Man, Drysdale was so good. Could make just the usual average game so much better.

[@raulgreen8369]

In 1989 the Bulls return to WGN-TV Channel 9. A year later The White Sox also came back on WGN-TV. Till 2019 White Sox, Cubs, Bulls, Blackhawks were all going off on Channel 9 after a seven decades on WGN-TV.

I went to the game with my Dad the next night. Jerry Hairston hit a walk-off two-out pinch-hit two run HR. We were sitting in the RF bleachers near where the ball landed.

[@aarondersnah863]

As a Tigers fan, I hated Harriston for that pinch hit HR and his pinch hit single in a game the following year. That pinch hit single was with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th and it broke up Milt Wilcox's bid for a perfect game. Harriston also came to the plate as a pinch hitter, but was retired, in the 1984 Jack Morris no hitter.

[@SaltyPalamite]

@@aarondersnah863 I remember that year (1982) the Sox had traded Chet Lemon to the Tigers for one year of Steve Kemp, who was a good hitter. I wasn't the biggest Lemon fan, but he was pretty good.

[@caveman3096]

Tigers won that trade. Lemon was terrific in center. Kemp was over the hill and in NY by 83

[@pmsfar-outgrooviness8025]

@@caveman3096 Lemon had to be re-signed by the Tigers after '82

[@SaltyPalamite]

@@caveman3096 Kemp had a good year for the Sox in 1982, and Ron Kittle was ROY in LF the following year, and Rudy Law stole 77 bases in CF. Lemon was a good ball player, but DET had to re-sign him in '82, and the trade was not a total disaster.

[@BLaw707]

The White Sox were putting together a good team this year and eventually won the division in 1983.

[@thefungoden3978]

Ditto the Tigers. We know what they did in '84.

[@harrymann5523]

This was Don Drysdale’s and Ken Harrelson’s first year as broadcasters with the White Sox. Besides being part of ABC’s Monday Night Baseball coverage, Drysdale had been calling games for the California Angels. Harrelson had been part of the Boston Red Sox television team.

[@thefungoden3978]

The Hawk was so much more subdued back then. Hawk and Wimpy were the best.

[@raulgreen8369]

I knew The Sox were on Sportschannel. I had to wait to come on Channel 32. Even Channel 5 or Monday Night Baseball on Channel 7 . On NBC (The Game of the Week on Saturday)

[@rivotrich7]

There’s a nice view of them together @ 00:28 😄

[@chicagoblackmale]

I see Reinsdorf and Einhorn was in the process of painting the railings from white to yellow.

[@DNSKansas]

Hawk's future broadcast partner playing first for the Sox in this game What the hell was Mark Johnson doing umpiring with that giant cast on his right arm?

[@hiramnoone]

Tony LaRussa, the youngest manager in baseball here. Now back managing the same club, and the oldest... by far.

[@darwinblinks]

He's 5 years older than Dusty.

The Dennis Lamp fan club was there - look for the I Love Lamp banner

[@classictv80]

looks awesome! any idea what type of program is used to clean up old tv recordings like this? love your channel and have it saved and subscribed too thanks a lot!!

[@pheniafilmsthemlbarchiveso9229]

70s I have a post production system called Macrovision (Macrosystem) record the actual VHS tape or DVD then I frame rate it Followed by enhancing picture image or any color corrections Recording all audio on a track later making any corrections to the audio like if audio is coming out on one speaker (L or R) can correct in stereo then lay down the audio tracks in sync and a final run to burn to a blu ray (all through the Macrovision Bogart system post production on each game)

Maybe you can let him know this game he started is out there ..a blast from his past ⚾️

[@lorddalek]

Was this Ken's first season in the booth?

[@davanmani556]

Yes with the White Sox. He came over from the Red Sox after spending 7 seasons with them.

[@YESJesusisLord100]

Yes, for the White Sox. He replaced Harry Caray, who was in his first year with the Cubs

[@harrymann5523]

@@davanmani556 I remember the Hawk when he was calling Red Sox.

[@bobma6342]

Both teams would run away with the division title over the next two seasons. Sox in 1983, Tigers in 1984.
