9:04 pm
events that took place in fifteen thousand nine hundred forty seven jackie's rookie year right fact he was the first rookie of the year and there was no rookie in the air ever before one thousand nine hundred seventy s. no names and. i kept a journal of that year i knew was important and i cut out every new york daily news dick young story from the first day through the last game of the world series one loss and seven games you know it's interesting i don't know whatever how i lost you know lots that i have read i elect scrap books cause i would have been worth a complete scrap you're going in for as larry king's would be worth a lot for just somebody else that would be worth that much but the old scrap books are wonderful maybe you remember when you there for this famous play do i notice play i tell you about this play is the world series fifty five and even by the year we won the world series and jackie's last year run as the dodgers stealing home is very important thing here is this foot catches bear is that the teddy bear right
9:05 pm
the up by this when the murderer is on barges to where the chest protector was jackie catches the corner of the play there there are swears the tag number four and are given ensues i try to remember there was god because later he would say jackie was out in an interview later i was at it they were there not out failure i don't get on you does that it goes bad there is not touched him yet but i wasn't well it's like you know he hasn't he's looked that he's got to the opinion is the jag in court the corner of the plate here and then slip that this is after the players after the play all right there is eighty eight years old. i saw him last year in yankee stadium he's in a wheelchair he's got his own museum in montclair new jersey so i'm talking to my lawyer use interview your good yogi what do you remember of the play he gets up he was. never about that so that's why the great moments that is one of those
