- Derrick May drove in the final run of the ballgame on a sacrifice fly that scored Mark Grace to give the Cubs a 12-10 lead in the eighth. That held up as the final score, but not before two more ejections in the ninth, bringing the total to six for the game. Pirates outfielder Lonnie Smith didn't agree with plate umpire Charlie Reliford's third-strike call and was tossed. Then coach Bill Virdon, filling in for ejected manager Jim Leyland, followed Smith out of the game. But Virdon had to coax Smith to leave the dugout. The umpires wouldn't resume the game until Smith and Virdon left. It was a fitting end to a wild game at Wrigley.
I love watching the Cubs, in the afternoon. And hearing Harry, doing the game. He is truly miss.
The best part of this whole thing is Harry Caray telling all of the folks who weren't watching that they could still catch it at midnight.
Prime the VCR's folks, this is one you can't miss!
Watching Cubs baseball on WGN is very nostalgic for me. I grew up watching WGN in Hot Springs, AR, which is Cardinals country..and we also had TBS(Braves), and the Cubs and Sox were always my favorite growing up.
I lived in Memphis, and watched the Cubs on WGN, rooting hard for them. Memphis is Cardinals country also.
“Can’t beat fun at the ol ballpark.” Miss you Harry. ✝️
This game, on August 2, 1993, was "quite a ballgame" as my mother put it. I heard all about it from mom when I got home from driving hack all day. Saw the highlights on the WGN News later in the evening of 08/02/1993.
August 2, 1993 was a Monday...Lonnie Smith was tossed at 30:40
Back when WGN was still WGN.
+jurgostuff Local feed to boot. Good stuff.
Nice to see no advertising splashed all over the stadium and all over the broadcast. Quite refreshing....
So i guess the way stadiums used to be just drove you nuts.... ads on the outfield wall, ads on the scoreboard....
@@kevinmoore2929 Believe it or not, all major and minor league games were played with no ads on the outfield walls. Back in the 70s and 80s. Now, of course, they are everywhere.
Yes indeed!
Harry and his classic "THERE'S A DRIVE!!" And it's a pop up. Lol
Chicago land TV made it to cable TV in Colorado Mountain Time. I was able to watch Cubbies and 90s Bulls!! Good times!!!
Thanks for sharing, it's like at time machine, being a kid again even though its first year my bucs started their epic losing seasons lol
Harry Carey forgive me if I spelled any part of his name wrong was one of my favorite announcers of all time Holy Cow was very entertaining
Harry telling folks on live TV that if they missed the game they are currently watching they can watch it later on Chicagoland... Lol...
I thought that was hilarious. If you missed the game here today,(as they are) then(those of you not watching this broadcast, listen up) you can see it replay again later tonight on Chicago Sportsland. During commercial break he started explaining to viewers about the commercial breaks and the reason for the advertisements they’re viewing.
Montgomery Wards commercial talking shit about Best Buy... kids nowadays don't even remember Montgomery Wards lol
I forgot that commercials used to actually get to the point eventually. Good times.
Why do I watch this thinking baseball then was so much better than today?
Cause it was
It probably was, but baseball is one of the few sports that is still good imo. Football, hockey, basketball.. all trash in 2020.
Barry Hestand Everything was.
For one thing, Rob Manfred was not involved with MLB in any way in 1993 (AFAIK)
I'm staying tuned for Perfect Strangers at 5.
Born 1990 grew up watching every game that was my only priority Cubs baseball the only obstacle not to wake up mom watching the late 9pm start west coast games
According to Baseball Reference, Angel Hernandez was the first-base ump. Somehow this all has to be his fault.
This was so special... and MLB let it go. Made the Cubs a national brand. I'm a Reds fan, through and through, but always had a soft spot for the Cubs. Ryne Sandberg and Andre Dawson were my favorite players as a child, and I went into broadcasting thanks to Harry Carray. Still a Reds fan but absolutely zero connection to the Cubs nowadays.
Afternoon Baseball was the best when I lived there.
When I lived in Denver in the late 80s to early 90s, I totally enjoyed watching the Cubs on cable out there. But then came 1993 and the inception of the Colorado Rockies. So I didn't see as many Cubs games after that. For the record, I grew up in southern NJ as a Phillies fan!
The fans at this game sure as heck got their money's worth, I'll say that much.
33 saves for one guy! I’m not sure this year’s (2024) whole pitching staff will get that many.
I remember this game like it was yesterday! Hey, thanks for putting this up sir! Much props to you man. At 2:50 I remember being LIVID at Bautista for even attempting to throw. All he had to do was look up once right before picking the ball up a few steps before. Quick look up….no throw type of play is what little like 10-11 year old me thought! Boy I was hot. 😂
Still rocking the mullet in 93. I wonder if he saw Winger on tour that year. Must have been wild.
I was actually at this game!
McGannahan Skyjellyfetti cool!
McGannahan Skyjellyfetti I was likely watching on WGN in Omaha Nebraska. YE ole cable.
Miss all the New York Games...Best sleep I ever Got.
Electric Avenue...
🎵And then we'll take it higher
I never knew they had a camera in the dugout.
I don't think Lonnie Smith actually realized he'd been thrown out of the game.
He did he was just acting like he didn't to mess with them
miss harry he was the goat
Good ol senile Harry, bless his soul.
Nobody can do what Harry Caray did. Good times
Jack Buck was better
@@joey3627 I liked both Harry and Jack. I'm a Cards fan and Harry would have been there for his whole career had it not been for, shall we say, an indiscretion with Gussie Busch's wife.
Not senile...in his cups. He liked beer.
@@telephotousa , I liked both of them. Jack was a little better, but you gotta love Harry's enthusiasm.
Live in Cincinnati, but wgn on cable, you could watch cubs early, take a break, then reds at 7:10, guess u can still do that. Diehard reds fan, but sure do miss ole harry!!!Harry!!!! HE was a classic, cubs win, cubs win, cubs win.... but back in them days , he only got to say that inced a week, twice if cubs where on a hot streak.... lol
Harry Carey is my childhood ❤❤
Randy Myers the only player I ever saw get charged by a drunken fan that he body slammed.
It seemed like Brian Shouse pitched in the league forever. The advantage of being left handed.
"588-2300, Empire"!
Today!
If you listen closely you can hear the producer giving Harry and his partner instructions via the headset I assume.
Llyod McClendon identified as Gordon.
Geezus pitcher change and no commercial break wtf lol
Long crazy game - They had run all the scheduled commercials already... Nothing more carted up to play.
Did anybody hear that if u pause it @ 4:37, u can hear somebody say keep it here?
Yep, that was Arne Harris. Harry had his earpiece up so loud that Arne went out over the air quite a bit.
Brian Shouse?! I remember him on the Brewers in like 2009
35:40 Cubs Win, Cubs Win…
Shaq Attack!!!
34:53 So of all umpires, Angel Hernandez was part of the crew from the previous series…and he stuck around to work another series with a different crew…and he WASN’T PART OF THE MANY FRACASES IN THIS ONE? 😂
Harry Caray!
3 balls called as strikes. Holee Cow!!!!
I think his name is Brian S House
Yeah right
all that video just to see a manager get ejected.
You say 2 more ejections, but one of them does not appear due to its occurring in 7th. CORRECTION: a coach was ejected later, not just a player.
Commercials for businesses that have closed... Builders Square, Montgomery Ward.
Montgomery Ward still exists.
AFLAC ten years before the duck

Huh?
Poor cry baby Lonnie Smith
2 months left in the season and just finally got 4 games over .500 pathetic
That's cause the Scrubs suck, always have and always will.
It was better than being 24 games under .500.
that guy calling the game sounds like a blubering drunk
That guy is Harry Caray, and he's in the Hall of Fame.
never heard of him. but i wasn't even born in 1993. he seriously does sound like a blubbering drunk though
Well, to be honest, there were times he probably was.
Jeff Agrest LOL. You see that's what I'm saying
Harry Carey used to crack open Budweisers during games. He may very well have been drinking during the game.
