cantlay playing so well, now so many more in the mix. trevor: par for rahm. last 38 of the masters champions were leading with no worse than tied second with 18 holes to play. so getting into that last pairing is so important. brooks a couple feet for bogey to drop back to 11 under? could he join sevi with two

major titles, two masters, three opens. jon already the u.s. open champ. and brooks of course with four. didn't get the win on the first, a wind with the second and a misread on the third. koepka will shake that off. the difficult 18th left to play. jim: hovland with his second at the home hole. trevor: see those clouds coming into him and to his right. as he has enough to get it on the top shelf. he sure does. outside, look at birdie here at the home hole.

jim: meanwhile over at the 9th, im. this would be for 66. thomas pieters and the third member of the group would have been tiger whoare tgo. to 18. bennett. with the cold and the rain, i've never seen 18 play this long in years. trevor: yesterday we saw fairway woods getting to the front edge in two and the rain was lashing down. dottie: i don't think justin's shot traveled 240 yards. brutal.

trevor: going to catch a piece of the left edge. jim: a little gap over there. talk about way back. it will be metal coming in probably, hybrid. ou knowttomhear sidf the thing o r it a shotees we trevor: started in the left bunker and move it to the right side of him. jim: where will he stand when he hits the tee shot at 18 in about seven hours' time.

same can be said for these two, they'll be going pairings, not groupings of three, just confirmed that. he'd like that twice today.ring quick turnaround from the end of round three to the start of round four and we started this morning, the restart, the margin was four and got as close as one and then widened back to three and currently two.

trevor: i mentioned earlier, 12 players in history since world war ii have won five majors or more. you look at that list, it is incredible, i'll come back to that in a second as we watch morikawa. it is trying. jim: this is crazy. can you believe this? there were four or five times you were certain it stopped. and a big exhale. morikawa has that to get in at four under. trevor: would have been a great shot to put a clock on to see how long it took for that ball to get down there. jim: he knows how to make shots around the green, doesn't he? this was on sunday a year ago. right after mcilroy had holed one himself from the sand.

got to watch what 64 looks like on a sunday, watching rory, he'll need a round like that later today. hovland over a birdie putt. you were talking about major champions with five in their history. trevor: five or more since world world war ii as he's trying to join jack, sam snead, mickelson, peter thompson, sevi. this is the elite of the elite. jim: no kidding. by the way, the last pairing is still very much in play for hovland. this to get to nine.

oh, goodness. thought he was about to deliver a roar. round of 70. ignited at the 11th. trevor: first norwegian trying to win a green jacket now. jim: i think he'd trade a green quarter zip for a green jacket. revor: sounds like a goe

to me. jim: to 8 for par. 74 for jason. what makes hovland's second nine even more remarkable as you seymour kawa finishing -- as you see morikawa finishing up. absolutely exquisite what he did. the five at 15 kept him in the game after a water ball with his second. hovland getting five birdies in a row, the last group in the fairway now don't have a single birdie in the grouping on the second nine. bennett, koepka, and rahm. he had five in a row and looked like he had another one right here.

trevor: watch his caddie here, shae knight. great second nine. >> get in there! >> let's go, baby! jim: viktor hovland played with rory mcilroy at st. andrews and he struggled that day, a 74. wonder what he's learned from that experience. he's going to be part of the picture here in the afternoon. made his way right back into it. ken venturi with the 54-hole

standard for amateur in this tournament, back in 1956, finished runner up to jackie burke. we pass along our best to mr. burke watching from the champions back in houston, turned 100 at the end of january. happy birthday. first masters champion to ever live to 100. dottie: bennett at 211 playing closer to 240 uphill into the wind, first time these guys played a shot truly into the wind since their second at 8. jim: it was a good one. trevor: sure is to get it back on the top shelf. very good, glad that ball stayed up for him there. he deserved it. jim: koepka next. dottie: still going quickly, 5-iron.

jim: the wind is really whipping, uphill, right into the teeth of it. trevor: as you climb the green to the 18th green, one of the highest points at augusta national, much more exposed up there. dottie: four yards closer but one more club, 4-iron. that wind has a bite of temperature, too, or lack thereof. jim: we know what this will look like. just have to breathe on it. trevor: that's right. jim: this 18th hole has

surrendered only two birdies in round 3. there will be more coming in round 4 and we'll have our final round coverage beginning at 2:00 eastern time. of course i say there will be more because it will be that traditional front left hole location. you know what this round reminds me of? until he missed the putt at 17, we were looking at it, and verne went through the catalog of major championships by koepka, the 120 18 at shinnecock. tommy fleetwood went throw and had to hold it together and had so many wonderful shots and up and down around the green, made

so many four- and five-footers with pressure on. i know this is round 3 but looked very similar to the koepka at shinnecock of 18 on his way to winning another major. trevor: sure does. and the type of golf he's played here over the last three rounds. just spectacular. so few mistakes really a three-putt at 17. but just seems to be in full control. jim: five since the restart on the 8th. that's it. trevor: the brilliant up and down from left of the green there.

jim: coming off a three-putt green at 17. he makes his way behind rahm to look behind the hole. trevor: totally different style @for koepka, 17 was yet one of those to be really defensive, be onguard, this one you make sure you catch the putter face and give it a lot of energy to climb the steep bank. you talk about how he hasn't made a birdie since the 8th. how tough augusta national has played in this third round, scoring average so far, 73.4, so almost a shot and a half over par. and these are the players that made the cut, so they played well. they've been playing well this week. jim: any time i see that back right hole location, i remember 1986, this was the hole location interestingly that year they used on sunday. i think of jack nicklaus

two-putting down here and knocking it in and walking arm and arm with hk i always one to think about. walked up that green, pat summerall and tim venturi called it and ken who always wore his emotions on the air looked at the shot of the father and son and kept saying over and over again, it's beautiful, it's beautiful. look at that. just beautiful. it was. it was magic. nice to see blue skies, a few puffy clouds as the last remnants of a nasty storm are leaving the area. a last reminder. those clouds will probably be all gone by the time we get to the late stages today.

now if rahm could see what morikawa did from beyond this point but nonetheless still has the same sensitivity and downwind. trevor: when it gets to the surface, it moves so slowly, you can read the logo on it like this. jim: trundles on to the green and surprised it didn't go more. trevor: that's what he said, can't believe i left it short. bennett has a birdie putt coming up. he shoots a 68, 68, one of the rounds without a bogey, and then he gets on that first tee for round 3 and gets introduced with

these two heavyweights, these two linebackers. drives it left at 1, drives it left at 2 and goes bogey, bogey, and the conditions are just impossible to score in. i really thought this had the makings of a much higher score than what we're seeing here today in the finish. this would be 75. dottie: i think he was really helped by the suspension, jim. gave him a chance to absorb what he learned, came out and played a lot cleaner today. jim: i'm sure you can relate to it, trev, what you did in 1999 as an amateur and shot 72 on thursday. just three off the lead with the score 69, the lead, made the cut and played all four rounds. and sergio edged you out for low am with the visit to butler. now you get to visit today again. you got the visit in 2008.

trevor: that's right, looking forward to it. jim: many tickets back to be here. but is it relatability to you what he's done? trevor: absolutely. i didn't play as well as what he has. even though he's had some struggles here today, he's still in a tie for seventh, inside the top 10. jim: that's right. trevor: huge putt. jim: coming off 17's miss. jams that one right in. 38. second nine. trevor: started this round with a two-stroke lead, currently has held on to that. jim: has to make this to play with koepka in the afternoon to make the final pairing. you have all the numbers on how many times the champion comes out of the final pairing.

if he makes it, he's playing with brooks again. a miss and hovland will be with koepka. right into his shadow. no problem. matching 73's between the top two. good on you, sam bennett. you'll be playing with collin morikawa this afternoon when again they use both the 1st and 10th tees but go out as twos. that was impressive.

tied seventh. eight of the last nine masters winners have come out of the final pairing, or in the case of 2019 it was a grouping of three. and we'll be watching more of this duel between rahm and koepka for 18 more holes. didn't see a lot of birdies out of them. rahm early. but man was it intense and dramatic and fun to watch. trevor: what a brilliant morning's golf when you consider how this round has ened and flowed, the roller coaster we've been on when we came back and koepka had the four-shot lead and then had the two-shot swing early and been a roller coaster up and down, rahm getting it to one shot behind, now two going into the final round. jim: a look at the asian-pacific amateur championship starts our programming in the afternoon at 12:30 and then we'll remember tom weiskopf, the masterful tom

weiskopf, a look back at his fabulous life and career. jon rahm plays and lives at silver leaf in arizona. morikawa and bennett, three pairings from the finish going out together, matsuyama, the winner two years ago and georgian russell henley hit five under par. and then hovland and cantlay, those two could feed off one another, no question. and then it will be koepka and rahm for more head-to-head, although they must be careful not to look over their shoulder because someone could be creeping up. just take again the case of hovland who was 10 shots down after he exited the 10th green. now he's only three behind. jim:gain,reacitive coveragetern time. enjoyed gettr

easter sunday started with golf from augusta. hovland, what a birdie run by the norwegian, and rahm was able to narrow the gap from four to two. and koepka going for major championship number five. will be with them every step of the way this afternoon, 2:00 eastern time, we'll see you back here, the chase for the green jacket on cbs.

he began the year by breaking his school record with 369 yards rushing in a single game. and he also scored six touchdowns that night, which tied another school record. the 5'9" 195-pound back is a physical runner, who can bounce off tacklers, but he also has the speed to run past defenders when he gets into the open field. he runs a 4.48 in the 40 yard dash, and he also runs the 100 and 200 meters for the track team. he's one of the top rushers in california this season, and while he doesn't have a scholarship offer just yet, that's likely to change the way his season is going. if you'd like to be featured in this segment go to our website and make your case. go to sportsstarsoftomorrow.com, click on "contact," and fill out the form and tell us why you should be on the show. it's time for us to go. remember to follow "sports stars of tomorrow" on our social media channels for bonus content and updates on the show. for everyone here, i'm charles davis.

(bouncy music) - [presenter] game time with boomer esiason. this week's guest is two-time world champion and 15-year yankee great, all star roy white. (bouncy music) - our guest today bridged the gap between the yankees dynasty of the 1950s and 60s and their renaissance in the late 70s. through it all, he was the most underappreciated, most overlooked and most consistent presence in the lineup. it is my pleasure to welcome my old friend, roy white. roy, welcome the game time. - all right, great to be here, boomer. - i want to ask you a little bit about your own baseball history here for a second. given how many walks, how few strikeouts how high your on-base percentage was back in the day,

do you think that if you played today you'd be a favorite of the analytics geeks? - there's no doubt about it, boomer. back when i was playing, i had to write everything down on paper, like how many times i sacrificed myself or hit behind a runner, and i had to do that for my contract negotiations. now it's all out there, war and all these other terminologies that they have for different attributes you might have and i turn up pretty high in all those categories. - yeah, i'm sure. and i'm wondering if you like some of the new rules this year and how they would've played right into your game which featured doing all the little things right. so do you like some of the new stuff that they're doing? - i do. having the batters stay in that box is a big help because i think one of the main problems which was delaying the games besides pitchers that take a long time was the batters with their batting gloves

and the body armor that they're adjusting after every pitch. we didn't have any gloves when we were playing still, gloves weren't in vogue then, and we didn't have the body armor. so i think that stuff alone was adding 15, 20 minutes to the game. - [boomer] you were very close with thurman munson, the great thurman munson. his wife, diana, recently made a public plea for his election into the hall of fame. now, is she right that he deserves to be enshrined in canton, in your eyes? - yeah, i think thurman deserves to be in there. i think it's kind of unfair to guys like him that had their career shortened because of the tragedy that happened with thurman, or a guy like don mattingly also that got the back injury and didn't play as long. and there's no doubt that those guys are hall of famers. i think there should be a special category, at least for those guys that are definitely hall of famers but maybe didn't play 15, 18, 20 years

like guys are playing now, and they don't get a chance to have the numbers that some of these guys have but they would've have they been able to play longer. - how hard was it for you guys to play after the funeral of thurman munson? - that was probably one of the toughest days that i ever experienced. thurman and i sat next to each other in the yankee clubhouse for those 10 years. so he was the first guy that i saw every day that i came to the stadium, and we sat next to each other on a lot of plane flights, and we had a lot of dinners together because thurman said i always knew the best restaurants in the american league. so i got to know thurman pretty well, so it was really tough for me to lose somebody that was that close to me at that time. so going back to the yankee stadium and having to play that ball game, it was just like a big cloud over the stadium, a dark cloud, it was really tough. i shed quite a few tears that day at the funeral and at the ballpark.

and we three were together, actually, in those early years. it was bobby murcer, myself and thurman. we were like the three key players on the yankees in the late 60s into the early 70s. - i'm just wondering, how does a steady guy like you get along with a guy like billy martin? and what was he like? - he was one of the most exciting managers that i played for. he wasn't conventional. and to give an example, i remember a game in oakland. i was on second, mickey rivers on first, lou piniella's hitting, the bunt sign's on from dick howser. lou falls it back, i go back to second. i look down at howser, not really looking for a sign assuming the bunt was still on. lou swings away, gets a base hit. i come around to score, everybody's giving me high fives until i got to billy. and he says, "did you know you missed a hit and run?" and i'm thinking a hit and run would mean on first and second,

i've never had that before, i better really be on my toes. - [presenter] drive into manhattan for an unforgettable staycation at midtown manhattan's luxurious kimberly hotel. treat yourself to new york city without the crowds, protected by our highest safety and hygiene protocols to keep your family safe.

sic) you are watching game time with boomer esiason. - welcome back to game time. growing up in compton, california, roy white had to contend with a broken home, a lack of money, sometimes even a shortage of food, electricity, and clothing. but no matter how many strikes against him, one can never count him out. a k you,, 'cause i was doingmany someeas against him, is ck ball? - well, that's when, i grew up really, my early years were in los angeles. and when i was around, i guess about 9, 10 years old, that's when we moved to compton. and there was a lot of other kids in the neighborhood that liked baseball that became friends of mine. and so we didn't really have a regular baseball to play with all the time so we invented a game we called sock ball. we would take a sock and we would stuff it

with other socks or rags into a tight little ball. we would tie a knot and tie it up real tight and we would play in our backyards. and every saturday and sunday, we would have the game of the week. and we would imagine ourselves, the brooklyn dodgers playing against the st. louis cardinals. and so i would be stan musial sometimes, sometimes i would be duke snyder, and that's when i started hitting left-handed. and with this sock ball you could throw some wicked curve balls, screw balls, and all kinds of things, and we were only pitching from 25 or 30 feet. so my backyard might be the polo grounds one day, and my friend's house would be ebbets field or busch stadium in st. louis. so i think we all sharpened our baseball skills by playing sock ball and it certainly helped me become a switch hitter. - let me ask you this question, when did you find out that the yankee scout who signed you,

tuffy hashman, who signed you out of high school, was not authorized by the team to sign you? when did you find that out? - i didn't find that out until around 1969 or '70. i'd already been with the yankees for three years, and i was at a dinner with johnny johnson, was sitting next to me. johnny johnson was the director of the minor leagues for the new york yankees. and so we're sitting there doing this banquet in the off season and he says, "roy, you know how we signed you?" i said, "yeah, i got a contract and i signed." he says, "no, that's not the way it happened." he says, "one day we got the mail, and there were five signed contracts from california and we didn't know who any of you were. the scout had signed you and resigned and never asked for our permission. so we had to honor the contracts. that's how you ended up a new york yankee." - oh, that is crazy, that is crazy.

- [presenter] it's time for a change. instead of working from home, work from your luxury suite at midtown manhattan's crown jewel, the kimberly hotel, now offering special monthly rates with the most impeccable safety and hygiene protocols to keep you safe.

7 day old tuna casserole! how'd you know that?! even my nose is strong! you need hefty ultra strong! it has arm & hammer continuous odor control! hefty! hefty! hefty! oh, and uhhh... toby needs a bath! stay one step ahead of stinky. welcome back to game time with boomer esiason. - when roy white finally reached the yankees in september of 1965, the best days of mickey mantle, whitey ford, roger maris

and elston howard were clearly behind them, and white was in the vanguard of the youth movement that would include bobby murcer, mel stottlemyre, and of course the great thurman munson, as you spoke about earlier. so what was it like walking into the yankee clubhouse for the first time and seeing all those legends that you had known about growing up? - oh, that was something that was really unbelievable just coming in and seeing mickey mantle and maris, ellie and whitey ford in this, i saw i had those guys baseball cards. i was watching them when i was 12 years old in the world series 'cause they were in there every year so you were always watching the yankees and that was just an incredible thing. i think that was one of the greatest thrills of my life still, was the first time coming into yankee stadium and seeing that those guys are still there after all those years and now i'm with them. - i was gonna ask you about mickey mantle. he basically later on in his life regretted that he didn take better care of himself. you'd like to have a few pops, as they say, back in the day.

i'm just wondering if he were playing today and he was more aware of his body and taking care of himself, how much more could he have accomplished, in your eyes? - well, it would've been an enormous amount. with today's advances in the medical knowledge, he wouldn't have had the surgeries that he had to take back then on both of his legs. he would've had the arthroscopic surgery which is less invasive and probably would've had a longer career and would've had better numbers. he probably would've had, he probably would've hit 600 or 700 home runs, no doubt, if he'd have had that opportunity. - wow. - so he was on his downside when i was up there but he would still show you the flashes of the old mantle every now and then. i remember him hitting five home runs in three games up at fenway park in one series. and i remember one game we had against the california angels

d ey had a left-hander d marcelino lopein one series. who was throwinguthour d ey had a left-hander ed, ckey's d up battiig-hded, one series. he hits a grand slam home run, opposite field, third deck, in the old yankee stadium in the far corner. the next day, off of lew burdette, batting left-handed, he hits an opposite field home run in the back of the left field bullpen in the old yankee stadium. and the sign at the bullpen gate was 402, and he hit that in the back of that so he hit that ball like 470 feet. so he was still the old mantle sometimes and it was really thrilling to see him perform like that. - all right, we're gonna be right back with the great roy white, and we're gonna get into it 'cause we're gonna discuss the arrival of the bronx zoo and george steinbrenner, so stay with us. (upbeat music)

- [presenter] it's game time with boomer esiason. - welcome back everyone. after enduring some hard times and last place finishes, the yankees' fortunes began to change in 1973 when george steinbrenner led a group of investors who bought the team from cbs for a reported, get this folks, 10 million bucks. that was a lot of money back in the day, but not today. all right, so i gotta ask you, roy, your first impression of george steinbrenner was what? - well, i had heard about george because he had been a part owner of a basketball team, i don't know if it was the indianapolis pacers or something like that in the old abl. and we heard he was pretty eccentric so i didn't know what to expect. and i think he came in and gave us a speech in the clubhouse, how he was gonna turn us around, how he wanted us to be champions again.

soe s about owning the yankees and everything. and i have to give him all the credit for the turnaround because when i was there, they were under the cbs ownership and they didn't put any money into the club. they made very few trades and didn't sign any guys that were coming up in the minors. so once george came in, things turned in a hurry and they started signing players. he hired gabe paul to become general manager. gabe paul made some great deals. we get graig nettles, we get chris chambliss, mickey rivers later on, willie randolph, guys like that. and that really built the yankees. so george has to get all the credit for turning the yankees around, no doubt about that. george is the type of guy, now, one day he can see you and pat you on the back and you have a great conversation, 10 minutes later he might walk right by you and not say hello 'cause he was in a bad mood. so he was kind of like a jekyll and hyde type of character.

- yeah, certainly the boss. the yankees 70renaissance, which obviously you were right in the middle of, there were so many memorable moments. chris chambliss' 1976 walk off home run that put you guys into the world series. of course, you had reggie jackson's three home runs in game six of the 1977 world series that beat the dodgers, and bucky dent's 1978 home run at fenway park, and he used your bat, by the way. and i just want to, there's so many great memories for the yankees. i'm just wondering if you have a personal favorite memory of your own. - well, believe it or not, the 1976 home run by chris chambliss in that playoff against the kansas city royals was one of the most thrilling moments in my career at that point because i'd been 11 seasons, 11 years being with the yankees and we had not been at the world series. and i was thinking when i signed that contract that i was going to be there every year.

and the ironic thing about that, boomer, my fave the cincinnatis. ey hadhe cuteve uniforms, they could always hit. later on, frank robinson, vada pinson. so now we're gonna play the big red machine with johnny bench, tony perez, pete rose. and it was very exciting for me, except for that we got swept four straight, that wasn't the good part about it. but that was the most exciting moment. when chris hit that home run, we were finally gonna get to that world series so that was a great moment. and finally we come back in '77 to '78 to play the dodgers. i'm from los angeles, so had the opportunity for my parents, my mother and my father to see me in the world series. a world series home run in '78 which every kid dreams about

when you're in little league and playing ball in amateur leagues and stuff like that. so a lot of dreams came through. - in his book the bronx zoo, sparky lyle says, "roy white is probably the nicest damn guy in the club, well-respected by everybody and he's very classy." and i'm just wondering, with all that was going on from steinbrenner on down? - no it was pretty easy for me, really. every time i came to the ballpark, i just wanted to do something that was gonna help us win. so i was more focused on what i was gonna do in that game, who was pitching, how was i gonna be swinging, how the guy was gonna pitch me. so a lot of the things that were going on, i didn't even know they were going on sometimes because i was usually the first guy to leave the clubhouse after a game if i didn't have to be interviewed. i had it down to a science where after a game was over, i could be in the shower and out of the locker room

to your family favorites. but don't take our word for it mwah! the culinary collection, from better than bouillon (upbeat music) you're watching game time with boomer esiason. - in 1980, roy white surprised many with his decision to play baseball in japan. now as it turned out, it was the final season with his decision to ruhiing kiaseball in japan. sadaru oh. y hadffers omion to ruhiotr league teams japan. so why did you decide to go to japan in the first place? - the reason i left the yankees is i was angry once again. i didn't play in '79 that much, i only got 200 at-bats. after almost being the mvp in the world series, all of a sudden billy wasn't playing me, they were playing jay johnstones and some other guys out there. so i wanted to stay with the yankees after the season ended, i wanted to sign another contract with the yankees. and the yankees told me, i think the general manager at that time was al rosen,

and he said, "roy, we can't give you a raise at your age. we can't give you a raise over what you were making the year before." and my final year's salary with the yankees was actually, was 160,000, that was my highest salary as a major league baseball player. and so i said, "okay, i'll sign for the same thing just to remain a yankee." so we had kind of a verbal agreement. i left that meeting and the next day i pick up the paper and it says, "luis tiant signs and gets a raise." so i had an agent then, it was jerry kapstein, and i says, "jerry, i'm not signing the contract. they just gave luis tiant, who's like 40, i'm 36," and they said i'm too old. so i'm not gonna play for the yankees, i'm gonna become a free agent. so jerry kapstein calls me and says, "hey, the tokyo giants want to give you a two-year contract for 500,000 to come play in japan."

and i was always interested really in playing in japan 'cause i'd read about other players that had played there. so i said, "i'll take it." so that started my japanese playing career. another sadaharu oh story that i always, i like to tell, and it's in the book, is that the greatest hitting day that i had in baseball in my professional career i had in japan that first season. i went four for four against hiroshima. we're in tokyo and my family had just come in. with the score tied in the bottom of the ninth, i hit my third home run, game-winning, walk-off home run, win the game. come back that night, family having dinner 'cause the game started at six, so i have my kids there and my wife, and i said, "wait 'til we see the papers tomorrow. dad had a great day. it's gonna be headlines four for four, three homers." get the paper the next morning, the headline was sadaharu oh,

hits one home run that passes hank aaron, makes him the all-time leader in baseball history. so my interpreter told me at the park that day, he says, "roy son, mr. oh only had one hit but he passed hank aaron. that was more important than your best day." - oh roy, timing is everything. and i gotta tell you, roy white, from compton to the bronx, good luck with this book my friend. it's filled with great stories just like the one you told. so our thanks to roy white for joining us today, and to all of you for watching. i'm boomer esiason, and i'll see you again real soon right here on game time. you had a lot of great teammates with the yankees, and then you run into sadaharu oh there with the giants. - i hit cleanup behind mickey mantle in 1968, and i hit cleanup behind sadaharu oh when i got to japan.
