There is no way a reporter/announcer could have done the Orioles locker room celebration better than Chuck.What a great man.And I love what Paul Blair said at the end complementing Chuck for his excellence as the Voice of The Orioles🇺🇸
Grew up listening to Chuck, and please don't forget about Bill Thompson. Arguably the absolute best 2 pbp men all time in one booth. The City of Baltimore have been blessed to have had as great a era as any city ever. From the late '50s to the mid 80's Baltimore was indeed the "Land of Pleasant Living". Just Greatness on the field and off. Great teams, Great announcers, and Great fans. 1970 was the peak as the Colts followed the Orioles with a Super Bowl Championship. Both teams would have great 1971 seasons, but came up short in Championship games. My childhood was enhanced by living in Baltimore during this time and these memories and moments continue to last.
I never heard such an incredible voice as Mr. Thompson. Baltimore was incredibly blessed to have him (both the Orioles and the Colts). Now we're stuck with that idiot Joe Buck-I turned off the audio on the TV when he is announcing. His voice is like scratching fingernails on a blackboard
love watching him pitch. Crazy Horse. Great screwball. He loved to pitch in warm weather, and if the opposing batters didn't get to him early, he would get stronger as game went on. I'm sure your whole family is proud of your grandfather. How many other pitchers do you have in the family?
It was great to see him pitching in our 🇵🇷 winter ball league, mainly for the Senadores de San Juan and the Cangrejeros de Santurce in the 60s and early 70s, great competitor your abuelo. Bendiciones !!!
I'm one of many that feel that Mike Cuellar should be considered for the HOF. Was a 20 game winner four times and had two 18 game win seasons plus that 172 career complete games ... is mind boggling 😮, The Veterans committee need to wake up and look at Mike and Luis Tiant as well.
Awesome memory. I remembered watching this game as a five year old kid in kindergarten living in Norfolk, Virginia. A cherished moment in my early childhood.
Sparky did that many times. He knew there was more to life than winning and losing a child's game. Too bad more sports people dont know that. Good dude, that Sparky.
It's unusual to see him with dark hair, but his first year managing in the major leagues wasn't stressful enough to turn his hair white. The 1971 season contributed to that. ;)
God bless Earl Weaver, the best manager in baseball history, and his two best players, the legendary bothers, Brooks and Frank Robinson, the greatest brothers ever from separate mothers.
I had the pleasure of meeting Earl Weaver when he was the manager of the Elmira Pioneers from 1962 to 65....he lived in Elmira ...in the off season ....he sold cars at Elmira Chrysler Plymouth....he was a great guy.
This is great! Chuck Thompson! I was 13 years old when the O's won this series. I was happy because of the loss to the Mets the year before. Great time for baseball in America!
One of the best memories from my youth. The Orioles were my favorite AL team and the Reds were my favorite NL team. I didn't care who won. I was just happy they were both there.
Two great ball clubs. All those hall of farmers. Brooks had the best series that I ever saw. You could tell that Frank was an effective team leader and would be a fantastic manager. I think he picked a few skills from Earl Weaver. Palmer, McNally, Cueller, Frank, Brooks, Boog plus gold glovers Blair and Belanger. What a phenomenal team.
Orioles were a juggernaut from 69-71. Odd that this game was about 8,000 below a sellout in attendance. The good old days of day World Series Games, even weekdays!
I remember watching this game at school in the 4th grade being a die hard O's fan in 1970 and being the only fan here in NJ everyone else were Yankee or mets fans i really enjoyed this one.
That season, 1970, Mike Cuellar had 21 complete games. With the way games are managed these days, you'll not see a player have 21 complete games in a career anymore. (Cuellar had 172 career complete games.)
To put that in even more perspective there were 36 complete games pitched in ALL of MLB in 2022. To call today's baseball a different era wouldn't do it justice.
What a job by Cuellar! He pitched himself out of a jam in the first when it looked like the Reds were about two hits away from breaking things open. A complete game in spite off the arm issues and location challenges. The Reds hit the ball hard, but Brooks Robinson, Brooks Robinson, Brooks Robinson!!! The Orioles made up for that aberration loss of 1969 to a great Mets pitching staff.
Among the players on this Orioles team were two future Orioles managers, Frank Robinson and Davey Johnson, two future Orioles announcers, Brooks Robinson and Jim Palmer (who is still announcing Orioles games), a future long-time Orioles bullpen coach, Elrod Hendricks, and a future Orioles BBQ king, Boog Powell. Go O's!

It's too bad. What REALLY started the ball rolling this way is the OWNERS. They got greedy: Would not give the players decent benefit packages, so the players went on strike. So the owners again screwed up and insisted on expansion to get more money. More teams means more money FOR THEM. 99.9 percent coming in rich so how did the owners make more money: more teams. Now to fill these teams for the new owners, they bring in substandard 4A players. That's all you have on 75 % percent of the teams. Starting catchers I mean STARTING catchers batting .220. Crazy! These players are bums. Owners make more money TV contract is etc. You have average ballplayers making 15 million dollars a Year. Insane! These NEW players don't care about winning; it's all about a fat contract, parties, tattoos, jewelry and instagram women.
@@hirampriggott1689 You can’t help yourself because you weren’t alive back then. Players had class. Players acted like they had done things before. The game has devolved and is not what it once was.

Yeah if you take the 1968-1971 home uniform and the 1970 WS-1971 road uniform but take the name off the back, that is the perfect traditional wool Reds uniform. No name on back so the fans learn the teams and players better, and so the teams can sell more scorecards (The baseball word for program), another nice traditional baseball nuance.
Kind of sad. The Colts were the top dogs in Baltimore in those days. The O's had a lot of fans and some awesome teams, but B-More was a football town. Things turned when the Colts went into decline and eventually moved, but went back the other way once the Ravens came in. Once a football town, always a football town
RIP UNCLE BROOKSIE there was no relation but I always said he was my uncle but what he did in the '70 series was one of the greatest baseball moments in the history of the game
This WS was the second of three consecutive ('69-'70), of which this one was the only one they would win of the three. (they were favored in all three) In '71, they'd blow a 3-1 lead and lose to Pittsburgh. They shellacked the Dodgers in four games in the '66 WS, (led by Triple Crown winner Frank Robinson) which gave the franchise their first WS crown, after relocating from St. Louis in '56.
@4:10…look at Johnny Bench watching Jim Merritt warm up in the bullpen..his face says it all…”this guy doesn’t have it…we’re going to be eliminated today”…sure enough..
A fan steals Dave Johnson's cap at about 2:50:24. And that looks like third-string catcher Clay Dalrymple in uniform at 2:51:11; he had broken his ankle in June and hadn't played since, and wasn't on the post-season roster, but there he is in uniform.
It's inconceivable to me how these games were played during the day. All these ballparks had lights and the country wasn't short on baseball fans so why not night games?? You can bet there were a lot of "sick people" unable to make it to the office back then, lol!
happens every game nowadays no? pitchers cant pitch more than an inning or two anyhow and too much work for them to pitch a complete game god forbid ..MLB 2020s players are just A ballers
Thank you for posting this. It's nice to revisit yesteryear. Do you have a 1973 World Series Game 3 that is better quality than the one extant on TH-cam?
You need to be reminded how good these teams were. The Reds were in 4 WS during that decade, the O's 2 and they won Both. Pitchers today throw every pitch as hard as they can, no wonder they all get hurt. Stupid
There is no way a reporter/announcer could have done the Orioles locker room celebration better than Chuck.What a great man.And I love what Paul Blair said at the end complementing Chuck for his excellence as the Voice of The Orioles🇺🇸
What a voice Mr. Thompson had. It must have been great to listen to Orioles games on the radio with him doing the play by play during that era
Chuck Thompson was the absolute best voice ever. He should've went national but happy for bmore, he didn't
Listening to Chuck Thompson made me a Colts fan in the early 60s ...Chuck was THE MAN....miss those days...

A class act by sparky Anderson to give congratulations to the orioles , earl , and brooks ⚾️⚾️⚾️
Sparky was a true gentleman.
Sparky did that many times. He knew there was more to life than winning and losing a child's game. Too bad more sports people dont know that. Good dude, that Sparky.
Sparky also allowed Pat Corrales to bat for the final out.
It's unusual to see him with dark hair, but his first year managing in the major leagues wasn't stressful enough to turn his hair white. The 1971 season contributed to that. ;)
Tip of the cap to Sparky. That's sportsmanship.

I was lucky enough to be at this game. As Chuck Thompson would say “Ain’t the beer cold” ❤

One of the best memories from my youth. The Orioles were my favorite AL team and the Reds were my favorite NL team. I didn't care who won. I was just happy they were both there.
It's refreshing to see a team celebrate a title without donning instant championship caps and t-shirts.
Like dam little league kids!!!

There was rain. All day.
Great 😃👍 Memories from the 1970 World 🌎🌍🌍 Series.
Chuck Thompson probably is the best ever at conducting locker room interviews.

Same here, 2nd grade, Central Jersey.
Magical time to be an Oriole fan. Wonderful music in 1970.

No nameplates, but the Reds' names were 4" and the numbers were 7" -- later went to 8" in the mid-1980s.

Jeez. Not even sold out.
Jeez it was raining. Jeez.
Believe or not, the Orioles didn't really draw that well in the 60s and 70s look at the figures on baseball reference
A year later than it was supposed to happen. Too bad the Mets ruined what should have been a dynasty.
too many stupid f;ing ads..youtube has gone downhill....
men.....vs boys.....
Somebody's still mad about 1969 and 1971....😂giggles!!!
Back when they celebrated like REAL MEN. not little leaguers who cant drink wine and have to wear stupid hats and T-shirts all alike????/
Blame the league trying to push a product. Those shirts and hats are sold almost immediately, so the league wants them shown off.
Boog was safe on that play at first when Blair scored. No hard feelings…
