00:03 Why not?
00:11 I think this is a great move by Bobby Mack, the Yankee skipper,
00:15 sending a kid up, Ken Stroud, his first major league at bat.
00:18 He's just young enough and just cocky enough
00:20 to not realize the magnitude of the situation that he's in.
00:28 There's a line block and it might be a line hooking foul.
00:33 And that was too close for comfort for the Tigers
00:36 and for Billy Chappell.
00:38 Well, I don't scare you at all, do I, Stroud?
00:45 Guess you forgot who I am.
00:55 Oh, good.
00:58 I think, Billy, you'll just throw.
00:59 I think.
01:00 Curve balls for shit, he knows it.
01:08 I know it.
01:09 He knows it.
01:14 It's going to hurt a little bit.

01:24 There's no line if you can't keep your head from all
01:26 about your losing theirs.
01:27 You don't understand the situation.
01:29 Well, that's Kenny Stroud right now as he takes another strike.
01:33 And the count is 0 and 2.
01:35 And with a weary body and, no doubt, a sore arm,
01:39 now this big crowd, over 56,000, rooting for Billy Chappell
01:44 to do the near impossible.
01:45 It's either going to be your night, kid, or mine.
01:52 [CROWD CHEERING]
01:54 Will this be the last pitch of the game?
01:56 Will this be the last pitch of Billy Chappell's life?
02:00 Will it be the end of his brilliant major league career?
02:03 And if so, what a high note.
02:06 0 and 2, the count to Kenny Stroud.
