Great footage! Well done barnstormer. Hey, $6 for a seat ( looked it up and that’s around $80 today…not bad for a World Series game. The yanks “celebration” looked liked the reaction you would get from an intra-squad game in April .
@chr970 Im glad you liked it! I'll be putting more videos like this from my personal collection along with other baseball stadium visits and info. Thanks for watching.
Even though this is before my time, I play the baseball strat-o-matic game and have the 1950 Yankees and 1953 Dodgers teams offered by the game, so I feel like I know most of these players well.
@larryloveless2967 That's what I love about baseball. There is so much history and statistics about our sport, you can start understanding the players. I have never played strat-o-matic, but Im sure the sim gives you that feeling of watching the drama unfold. Does your version of the game have the same results over multiple plays?
@@BaseballBarnstormer No. It is all about a dice roll of 3 dice with one determining whether to use a pitcher or batter player card and the other two for what happened. Defense for a at times is a separate roll The batter card.has the hitting probabilty for that player's season but the pitchers card for that season also comes in to play. The stats play out well over a full season but in a short series you never know. It gives you a very realistic game and pitching is very important like real life. I would say my 1950 Yankees team beats the 1953 Dodgers team more often because that staff of Raschi, Reynolds, Lopat, and Byrne with good enough reilef pitching is the difference. In this era I also have their 1954 Giants and 1954 Indians teams. They are fun to play. I am a Cards fan since being old enough to follow the game around 1960.
Got it. I just started playing dice sims, and I've been playing Pocket Pennant Run. It's a good game and a lot is included but Strat seems to be king. Imight have to do a video on some of the games are out there.
@@vinny4411 Why do you like it better? The truth is for me....I don't know much about these types of games. I just started. Once I learn a little more, I would like to show folks about them. PPR is my first and I've really enjoyed it. :)
@BestTime-q5x Yep. It was a different era thats for sure. I remember reading about Drysdale and Koufax standing together for more money and not going to spring training. It is different now though.....paying multiple millions for a contract and being a .200 hitter. Thats the part I dont understand.
Yeah, I know who's supposed to win, but that doesn't prevent me from sitting here, hoping that someone somewhere has developed that time machine I'm waiting for!
Broadcast error: at 8:49 the narrator says that Hermanski was replaced by Myron McCormick. Myron McCormick was an actor in 2 movies released in 1949 (memorable in "No Time For Sergeants" in 1958). Mike McCormick was the new right fielder, a good defensive outfielder who had come up with the Reds. A minor thing, unless you are in either of the McCormick families.
Myron McCormick was Mike McCormick's given name. Mike was my Dad's cousin. After the Dodgers clinched, Mike's dad Mac, and my great grandfather took my dad, who was only 11 years old at the time, on a drive from Stockton California to NYC. They only got to see game 5. It's a long drive. Mike is in the Reds HOF. Starting in Right in the 1940 WS. He also played in the 1946 series, with the Boston Braves, subbing for an injured Jeff Heath. He had a great arm.
It appears the Yankees of that era put on a clinic of baseball skills while the Dodgers exhibited an emotional effort. Not to say the Yankee clubs were cold robotic players, just that when a sacrifice, bunt or hit and run behind the runner was called for, each player did so. Each team had their stars, just that each Yankee player delivered regardless of their public persona and acclaim.
Newcombe had an outstanding pitching career with the Dodgers, but his Game 1 1-0 loss was his only good World Series performance in his five starts against the Yankees.
@KevinStogner-fd7tl Yep! It was definitely a different era, that's for sure. If we go back further, I read where umpires wore top hats! Thats something I would like to see! :)
Love the old World Series films. A priceless documentation of history.
I'll be putting more up from my collection, so stay tuned. :)
That fly over 🤣
@@Newfoundmike When I first saw it, it looked weird to me....Ill bet it was very cool in the day though.
That was a good New York Yankee team !!!!!
@michaeljoyner6470 Yankees in the 50s dominated. I think they were in 8 of that decades World Series. Incredible.

I like APBA a little better than stratomatic

Jerry hang a star on that one Coleman..ww2 hero😺
Great respect for the game during those days. Fans dressed for the occasion. Now….big money contracts, security issues and high prices.

Something bigger than this series happened in my life a month or so earlier on August 22nd. I was born.
@@Charles-t7z Happy belated birthday!
Even though I was just 4 months old I remember it well.
YANKS ONE THE 1ST GAME
HA! Even though I wasn't born yet....I remember it well. :)

@@charlesezell7043 Cool! Thank you for sharing this.
@@charlesezell7043 Thanks for the story. This is why I love doing this. Thank you for sharing and watcing!
@@michaelmelen9062 I had no idea. Thanks for sharing. I would never have caught that!
Thats Doctor Bobby brown, suh😺
And the 1950s would even be better for New York baseball!
@@bigcat618 They were in 8 World series from 1950-1959. A heck of a dynasty.
Happy chandler…later owned chandlers shoe in northland shopping center
Did anyone notice the absence of American flag bunting in the 2024 World Series?
Bunting -- My Word Of The Day.
It appears the Yankees of that era put on a clinic of baseball skills while the Dodgers exhibited an emotional effort.
Not to say the Yankee clubs were cold robotic players, just that when a sacrifice, bunt or hit and run behind the runner was called for, each player did so.

@LesterMoore Consistency is king and the Yankees had it in 1949 for sure.
went to the 1948 world series.born jan 1 1949
saw nothing but heard a lot
Newcombe had an outstanding pitching career with the Dodgers, but his Game 1 1-0 loss was his only good World Series
performance in his five starts against the Yankees.
YANKS went on to win 5 straight World Series
The Yankees and the Dodgers both have their dynasties, but that stat is hard to beat!
@@BaseballBarnstormer yeah, but one team came close, winning 4 straight series in 1936-39. and who was that team? you guessed it.
@@bevaconme Ha! You speak the truth.... :)
Most men came in their suits & ties.
@KevinStogner-fd7tl Yep! It was definitely a different era, that's for sure. If we go back further, I read where umpires wore top hats! Thats something I would like to see! :)

Sloppy baserunning by Rizzuto.
@berean77 If I remember right Joe DiMaggio also fumbled a catch, just like another Yankee I saw this year.....difference, they won in 1949. :)
