- -To mark the 40th anniversary of the Yankees 1977 World Championship, here is the complete radio broadcast of Game 6 of the World Series, where the Yankees wrapped things up on a night when Reggie Jackson entered baseball immortality with three home runs on three pitches.
-There have been other versions of this radio broadcast available before but NEVER in this quality or clarity or completeness for that matter. This was part of a lot of reel to reel tapes I obtained in the past year and it has everything from the pregame show with Ralph Kiner, through the full game broadcast with Win Elliot and Dodger announcer Ross Porter (CBS Radio was continuing the old practice of having a local team announcer from the road team in the World Series. Bill White of the Yankees did the games in Los Angeles), and finally 15 minutes of WCBS Radio after the game featuring the early local reactions to the Yankee championship. After that point, the taper then switched to the postgame on the regular Yankee station WMCA where Mel Allen and John Sterling were doing their own show and that is in a separate upload.
-A great night for Yankee fans, and still a great night in baseball history all these years later!

@@joeambrose3260 c'mon, man! Why do you have to be that way?
@@billbrown8600 Sorry I didn't remove his posts earlier. That bum has been spamming a good many of my uploads.
@@epaddon thank you for doing that.
My Dad and I were at the game. He worked for Exxon and gave him the tix. 6th row behind the Dodgers dugout. A night I will never forget.
This was the National radio broadcast. The Yanks were on WMCA-570- during the late 70s. Jack Spector and then John Sterling had a sports talk show on WMCA in the evening. I called in to John in December 1974. He sometimes works in a few shows on the FAN in the off-season now. I am hoping to call him again and say that it’s really Second time, very long time ( 46 years).
Yes, it was the national broadcast but it was the only broadcast of the World Series since at the time MLB did not allow the local announcers to do their own broadcast (that only began in 1984). The local station was allowed to air the national feed as well as the network affiliate so consequently, this broadcast was also heard on WMCA (with John and Mel Allen doing a separate pregame and postgame) in addition to WCBS.
That time I was ten,I listed to this game on American Forces Radio in Tokyo,Japan.It was a beautiful morning,just an Indian Summer.
I was glad to her the CBS Sports Radio music at 1:05. I remember hearing it as a kid.
Best sporting event I ever attended!....I was 18 years old....L.A. fans were leaving in the late innings...I took a seat behind the Dodger dugout for the 3rd homer.....I eventually was on the field, ran the bases and entered the LA dugout and tunnel. It was pure madness!
I remember staying up late and watching Reggie hit 3 HR’s. I was 8. My idol was Thurmon Munson. I screamed until I had no voice.
Watched this game on ABC.... fantastic!
1:15 - for marching music fans out there, I believe you can hear the Bayonne Bridgemen Drum and Bugle Corps performing in the background
Thanks for posting. It’s too bad there’s not a radio version with Phil Rizzuto. During that era some playoff games would be available on national TV and on WPIX.
In this era, there was only the one network radio broadcast during the World Series. That didn't change until 1982 when separate local WS radio broadcasts were finally permitted. It was only during the LCS until 1983 that there were separate local and network telecasts.
This is great! Would love it if the Yankees radio call of this game were available on TH-cam, though. Thank you for this!
Glad you enjoyed it! I should mention there is no Yankee radio call of this or any World Series game from this era or before because until 1984, there was only one radio broadcast of the World Series games. That changed starting in 1984 when as part of the tradeoff for banning local telecasts of the LCS, the local teams could start doing their own radio broadcasts of the World Series. In 77 and 78 they were still using the old custom of a local announcer doing the national games which is why Dodger announcer Ross Porter was doing these games in New York, but for the games in LA, Bill White from the Yankee network did the PBP.
@@epaddon I just thought of something. When CBS Radio Sports started doing the Saturday Game of the Week again back in 1985, they used the 5tb inning as the " hometown inning". The visiting team's play-by-play man did the top half, while the home team's play-by-play man did the bottom of the inning.
Yes though they only used the hometown inning on postseason games in 1985 and 1986.
@@epaddon Yes, this year, 1978 and 1981 were the only years since 1955 that the Dodgers were in the series and Vin Scully was not involved in either the radio or TV broadcast team.
@@kenhenderson1762 Vin did the 81 World Series on CBS Radio as a CBS employee as opposed to being the Dodger voice (though CBS IMO should have recognized the potential conflict of interest and had Yankee announcer Bill White be the analyst instead of Sparky Anderson).
Great find and thanks for sharing.
Awesome video bro! 👍👍👍
Thank you so much.
Perhaps my favorite baseball game ever. I HATE THE DODGERS! Thanks.
Would enjoy hearing the other games of this WS if they become available.
When Reggie swings, New York wins. (WINS)
Umpires (Game 6)
HP John McSherry (NL)

3B Larry McCoy (AL)
LF Jerry Dale (NL)
RF Jim Evans (AL)
All time great crew
I was working out of town and watching the game in my Hotel. I set up a mirror to see TV from the bathtub. I remember Reggie getting a hit and running to 3rd base lol.
Fascintating piece of audio. Also are there are more broadcasts from this postseason ?🙊🙉🙈
At 2:39, Ralph Kiner said the Dodgers had never lost a World Series in an odd-numbered year. He was referring to their Los Angeles years, as they lost in '41, '47, '49, and '53 (in Brooklyn). They lost the '77 WS (this was the final game of that series) and they lost the most recent one (2017, to the Astros).
Well, Ralph Kiner's brain farts are legendary from what I understand.
@@joeambrose3260 Why the insults? Can't you just enjoy the broadcast?
Go Yankees
Ross Porter (PBP) & Win Elliott (C) Ralph Kiner (pre & post game)
Win Elliot: Sports Central U.S.A.
@@seanhanley9942 Oh, I remember it well. WCBS Newsradio 880, the new flagship station of Mets Baseball.
@@williamdunphy352 Do you remember which station was the flagship for the Mets in the '70s?
@@billbrown8600 The Mets were on WNEW from 1975-77 though on some occasions they were banished to WNYC whenever one of their big guns like William B. Williams refused to be pre-empted. When the Yankees left WMCA for WINS in 1978, the Mets moved to WMCA and stayed there through 1982 before moving back to WHN which morphed eventually into WFAN.
I can imagine that u have 1978 World Series Game 6 from CBS Radio plus the 1979 World Series from CBS Radio
No one gave a damn when Ralph Kiner screwed up which he frequently did. Why? Because you knew his heart and soul was in every word he spoke and that my friends was all that EVER mattered.
Or because people were not dramatic pussies quite so bad back then. Say one wrong word today even if you dont mean anything by it and are fried for it by the same people who preach acceptance and equality for everything......as long as it afrees with what they think ofcourse
At about 2:51:00,Kiner said the Dodgers had won 8-4. Imagine not knowing anything,turning on the radio and hearing that.
HI-LA-RIOUS!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
that's reggie martinez
Reginald Martinez Jackson
Nice one, Ep!
Thanks! Should let you know BTW that this same lot of reels also from two days earlier had the tail-end of Game 5 and also the first period of the Isles-Rangers radio broadcast called by Sterling-Lawrence (rougher quality than this but still listenable).
epaddon which isles rangers game?
October 16, 1977. It came on WMCA just after Game 5 of the World Series ended. Sterling and Mel Allen did a very quick five minute World Series postgame show (with Sterling at MSG) and then they just started the regular Isles broadcast. The tape deteriorated during the first intermission and nothing was salvageable after that.
Ironic the first ad after the riot exploded at the end was for Bud booze.
I like Ross Porter,but Vin Scully should be announcing this game.
Scully was offered it, but turned it down because he would have only been heard on the games in NY (Bill White, Yankees announcer did the games in LA. I wish it had been Phil Rizzuto or Frank Messer instead since White's strength was never as a pure PBP announcer).
@@epaddon Scully never did like flying coast to coast lol 😂
He got over that, and was CBS Radio's World Series announcer from 1979-82, and 1990-97.
@@brianoneill7186 Yes, but the difference there was he was doing *all* of the PBP whereas if he'd done it in 77-78 under the arrangement that existed he would have been sidelined for the LA games.
