:45:03
Shouldn't you forget the record
and focus on the pennant?
:45:05
Im doing that.
:45:06
- You see the Sporting News poll?
- I don't read the papers.
:45:09
It says 80 percent of the fans
are rooting for Mickey.
:45:12
- 80 percent. I guess that seems right.
- Why is that?
:45:16
I don't know,
maybe Im not a New York kinda guy.
:45:18
Im just some dumb redneck
from North Dakota.
:45:20
- You think that's what the fans think?
- Shit, I don't know how they see me.
:45:25
- Could you help me out here?
- What's going on here, Milt?
:45:28
Wild dogs.
:45:31
- All right, that's it for tonight.
- We have a job to do!
:45:34
This kid's a little full of himself, Ralph!
:45:39
"I'm just some dumb redneck
from North Dakota."
:45:41
"Shit, I don't know how they see me."
:45:43
"I'm just not a New York kinda guy."
:45:45
Why don't you go back home
where you belong!
:45:47
Nobody wants you here!
You hick, get outta here!
:45:50
This is the Bronx. This is Mickey's town!
:45:53
There it is, No. 45, Roger Marisl
:45:56
They're lettin' him have it
here at Griffith Park.
:45:58
Roger Maris, with his 45th home run,
drawing a lot of boos.
:46:02
- These Washington fans are tough.
- You can say that again.
:46:06
You believe this crap?
:46:09
M&M fever has gripped the nation.
At the White House today...
:46:13
...President Kennedy
interrupted a press conference...
:46:15
...to announce that Roger Maris
hit his 47th and 48th home runs.
:46:19
That's seven home runs for Maris
in his last six games.
:46:22
But with Mickey Mantle
right on his heels with 45...
:46:25
...the race is still very much alive.
:46:28
Six weeks until Frick's deadline,
as the Yankees head to the West Coast...
:46:31
...to play the new Los Angeles Angels,
and Roger Maris just 12 home runs away.
:46:37
Hot damn, honey, this is great news!
:46:41
You all right? Everything's fine?
:46:43
- Im fine.
- Good.
:46:45
Three days, I woulda been there.
:46:47
Don't worry about it.
:46:48
I tried to wait for you,
but Randy had other ideas.
:46:52
Yeah, I bet he did.
I can't wait to tell the fellas.
:46:54
This is great. Who does he look like?
:46:57
I hate to say it, but Babe Ruth.
