BLESS YOU SIR!!!!
I don't need 2020 games with historical recordings like this available.
Thank you very much!!!!! Love these complete Sox treats!
I'm from Chicago. This is crazy.
I put this on the big screen and it's frickin 1980 in the living room. - - thx so much ! !
We strive to present the finest retro Chicago televisual entertainment possible. Keep looking for tapes! ( and let us know if you find some). :-)
I just wished 44 would've stayed as an English channel
OMG! I did the same thing, I put it on my big screen and it felt like I was in 1980 because of the commercials.
@@annaames2417 Me too, it was like WCIU-26 for its day or another WGN. It should've stuck around today.
hello from Joe Nania
I loves baseball during the late 1970's and early 1980's. The announcers were great and the games were entertaining.
Harry Caray and Sparky Anderson, two of my favorite baseball personalities of all time. They just don't make 'em like that anymore.
So bittersweet to see this. Always great to see this era of White Sox baseball, and to hear Harry and Jimmy. But, it really makes me miss watching Sox games with my dad. By the way, growing up in NW Indiana, I could only dream of watching a game on Channel 44 with this much clarity!!! I really wish there were complete games from the Dick Allen-Bill Melton-Carlos May years. Those teams (and my dad) made me a Sox fan for life.
What part of NW Indiana did you grew up in?

@@JerGer918 Been living in Houston for the past 20+ years. One of the happiest days of my life was when the Sox won it all here in '05. I make my annual trek to Minute Maid Park every year when the White Sox come to town. Unfortunately, it looks like I won't get that chance until 2021, which hurts because the Sox are about to be really good again. By the way, I used to work at Robert Morris University, so that South Shore Line was as familiar to me as an old pair of jeans.

Damn, I miss Channel 44!
Black Phoenix It was a great Independent TV station in the Chicagoland area during the 70’s and early 80’s
It still exists in Chicago as a Telemundo Spanish language affiliate. Chicago has one of the largest Hispanic/Latino populations in the nation and it'd be strange if it didn't have one 24/7.
@@mr.gogetter1828 that wasn't what @Black Phoenix meant when he said that
Damn ONTV and Telemundo killed it....
@@mr.gogetter1828 Who cares
Interesting how they interview the opposing manager before the game. That's definitely something you don't see today!
Nor the honesty.
Great seeing Harry Caray interview Sparky legends!
I'm a Cub fan, but my grandfather was a Sox fan. I spent many summer days at my grandparents house, and watching these videos takes me back. Keep them coming.
Two lines you’ll never ever hear on an MLB telecast again:
“Funny how those shirts fit these gals as they come out of the shower.....seem to be mis-shaped”
“Red Hot Sun,.........bearing down”
I miss Harry!
You also won't see sports announcers open-shirted as Caray was during this game.
Good thing he isnt around today he would get fired for saying that lol
Why won't you ever hear, “Red Hot Sun,.........bearing down”?
@@brianfuller2163 As opposed to the other things he actually did get fired during his career for saying/doing.
Jimmy Piersall saying that the White Sox wives were horny broads in it for the money was the one I’ll never get over. Sheesh!
I was born in Aug 80. And let me say. I'm almost 40. The world is crazy as ever. I kind of wish I could get the keys to a time machine and go back. Just to live a few weeks to see what it was like
Who doesnt lol
I'd just turned 2 at the time and remember next to nothing about it. Part of me would love to do the same.
What a great upload! Just as I remember watching Sox games as a kid on 44 (Sadly this was their last season airing them). No, they don't make em like Harry any more and it was pretty cool to watch him do this broadcast from the bleachers. So much memories...the old ballpark, seeing the vintage uniforms of both teams and of course the players...especially the interview at the end with the recently departed Farmio (Ed Farmer). Oh and can't forget about the nostalgic ads...hearing that Rusty Jones one was a memory jogger. And then the classic 44 promos...especially with the squared "fireworks" logo...yes!!!!
Thanks to whoever donated this! A retrospective game (too bad the Sox lost) and also a fine continuation of your other video posted with the footage of the Cowens fight from the day before...interesting take on it with Sparky in the beginning.
I lived in Chicago south suburbs and could only get channel 44 on clear nights.
Thanks for these videos of classic full baseball games, they are wonderful reminders of great times, and leaving the local commercials in sets the time perfectly for us. I'm not from Chicago ( L.A. Dodgers guy since early 1970's ) or particularly a White Sox or Tigers fan ,although i remember the players , i'm mainly a fan of baseball, so watching this sort of makes me feel like i'm just watching the game on tv at a friends house in Chicago in 1980, it's kinda' surreal and great, cuz' i don't know anyone in Chicago. The broadcast is not much different than the Dodger games on KTTV ch.11 in the 70's & 80's , the same type of production, and feel to it. I grew up hearing Vin Scully, Ross Porter, & Jerry Doggett so that is what baseball sounded like for me growing up. But it's really cool to see & hear what it was like elsewhere, and sort of get the feeling how it might have been growing up hearing Harry Carey, Jimmy Piersoll ,Joe McConnell, or Cub games w/ Jack Brickhouse, it is just awesome. Please show as much of this as you can , it's the best. Thanx, again , Bob.G
Wow the old comisky park suddenly I feel 7 lol.... Thanks .
Same lol but we cant stay. We have to go back to 2021 sigh
Thanks! I'll take any Caray/Piersall games, my #1 baseball announcing team of all time!
the little girl that was at her first sox game....is in her 40s now
I watched more White Sox games in the late 70s that I can imagine. Loved the Harry Caray-Jimmy Piersall team. You never knew what they'd say, and they were almost always more entertaining than the team. That's how they kept their jobs! Love to see a 1977 "South Side Hit Men" game. Great hitting team who gave it a run.
I absolutely LOVED Harry back then when i was a kid. Idk if i would like Harry today doing play by play. He was annoying me in just the few minutes of watching this game. He wasnt focused on the actual game at all lol.
@@brianfuller2163 Dreaming of being with Mary Ann Childers.
Thanks for posting that! It helps me get my baseball fix in this time of no baseball allowed. :-( Plus I miss Harry doing the Sox and Cubs games.
Donated.....eagerly awaiting more historical and rare SOX games and surprises.
Who would have thought that 40 years later Tony larussa would be sox manager again
there will never be another Harry Caray. irreplaceable.
Me too, can't stand the announcers today
@The big man is in the house! right,loved him too, I'm from Jersey but, I loved baseball and would scan and listen to different games, mark with marker on my radio, the old turn knob, Harwell, Kmox the cards with Jack buck and Shannon, Bob prince for the pirates KDKA latter Lanny fraterrie, the reds was a pleasure with Marty brenamen and the old left hander Joe nuxhal, they were great, the Mets team was outstanding with Bob Murphy, Lindsey Nelson and Ralph kiner, the Phil's with kalas and Ashburn, the yanks with Bill white,Frank Messer and rizzutto, I listened to many and it was great, and the tv teams were great, can't stand the cookie cutter bland correct announcers commentators today and the direction the game has gone, I'll take the old games
Harry would and could NEVER be Harry today, they would destroy him, the political correctness police, thank GOD we had him when we had him, he was a ONE of a kind GEM we'll never see again
I give anything if will Ferrell continue the tradition of being Harry Carrey
@@robertonline6543 nobody can replace Harry, he was one of a kind we'll never see again, period
I love the post-game show, the pre-game show , and the game, thanx again ,fantastic stuff.
I loved Harry before the stroke. He was sharp as a tack back then
Thank you so much for this...it is just comforting hearing Harry call a game...and we really needed more WSNS footage! I don't know how I could survive without your channel...a donation WILL come after the lockdown ends!
Thanks Jack! Don't forget the MHMH. :-)
@A.D. - Yes - and we're looking for pre-1980 games too, so if anyone has any, please let us know.
It's crazy how much the White Sox games in this era felt like Cubs games at Wrigley. It had that same aura of young people having fun in the crowd like the world's biggest outdoor bar. Harry Caray moved all of that culture to the northside and now the Cubs have that mystique. Cubs kind of always had similar crowds though especially back in the late 70s.
I'm not a baseball fan but watching a late game on Saturday in the backyard, they would move a television to the backdoor, was great. Harry Caray would always get drunk on air. But everyone would sing Take Me Out to the Ballgame.
1:03:00 Harry communicates with organist Nancy Faust. She answers with tunes! CLASSIC!
Ed Farmer: and he stuck his finger in my nose, and scratched it, right here. ( talking about Al Cowings ) then - Jimmy : oh, so he's a booger-snatcher eh'? . . . Farmer just looks at him ( not smiling ) hilarious stuff! Great material.
3:19:30 Tell me Harry isn’t 10 Budweisers deep at this point. Watch him try and do math, lol. This video also reminded me Harry would go to the radio broadcast from 3 innings and was replaced by the radio guy. ❤ this!!
All of these you put up are great
And as I told you, about nine minutes from the opening of this game, a full view of the original scoreboard with ten fireworks holders--five on the left, and five on the right! It would last for 22 years. Now there is a menorah across the street with only seven fireworks holders--one for each day of the week! Thank you for the game played 40 years ago in 1980 (which for me was an adversity year)!
9:15
Met Sparky after a game in Milwaukee. Such a nice classy gentleman. These old videos are fantastic! Such memories.
The commercials are fricken hilarious!..and Harry in an open shirt and bright yellow shorts! Lol wtf?? Never see that now.
Whoa 9:22 with the shot at the Sun Times…they just don’t cover their local teams? “That paper rips when you open it anyway” 🤣
That was awesome! Best line of the whole day
People want to know how to make the game of baseball relevant to modern audiences? Go back to making it FUN. We had FUN in the 1970s and 80s. Now it's a business and the players and managers and announcers are all too careful about what they say and what they do.
I'm a Cubs fan, but I miss Comiskey. I went to a lot of Sting games at Comiskey in the late 70's and early 80's. It should have never been torn down.
Wilcox pitched his 8th complete game of the year. 8 is like the total for 10 year career now for pitchers
Those unis are fire! They should bring em back as an alternate. Lol
Watching Harry and Nancy perform Take Me Out to the Ballgame never gets old
Wow, Harry sure did love talking about women in the bleachers.. lol!!
Harry Carey was the king of Budweiser Broadcasting..
its bad my mom and dad had tons of vhs tapes of programs and wrestling videos from the 70,s and 80,s but when they both passed away my brother pitched it all in a big dumpster 4 years ago.so this brings back warm fuzzy memories of watching games on here and 32 wfld and nbc abc cbs and wgn
I loved Harry Carey when he was the announcer for the Cubs. There will never be another like him. It's too bad that he and other legends over the years didn't live to see either the White Sox or the Cubs become World Series champions again in 2005 and 2016. Watching this definitely takes me back to all those years of watching Harry announcing for the Cubs alongside my now-deceased father. It may be the Sox instead of the Cubs here, but it's still very much the same Harry.
Also, apparently that McDonald's beefsteak sandwich didn't last very long, I've never heard of it. McDonalds wiki says it was taken off the menu in the 80s.
From 1978-1980, the White Sox were 7-28 against the Tigers.
Milt Wilcox pitching the whole game. Was his Eighth complete game that year! Insane. Most teams today use 4-5 pitchers most games.
I lived in marion Indiana our cable system shared two channels with ch 32 and ch 44 when white sox game on they switched to chin 44
Listened to Harry as a kid in STL. Great memories.
"Al Cowens won't be in the lineup today, there's a warrant for his arrest"
I loved channel 44!
Whether it was with the Cardinals, White Sox or Cubs, you get an example of why Harry Caray was so popular with fans. Listen to how many fans and groups he mentions during the game.
Chet Lemon, Jim Morrison both played for the Tigers in 1987 and Bruce Kimm played for the Tigers too in the late 1970’s and he caught Mark the Bird Fydrich’s famous Monday night baseball game vs the Yankees in 1976. Steve Kemp was traded to the White Sox for Chet Lemon in 1981. Also Dave Stegman played for the White Sox in 1983-1984.
That Kemp for Lemon trade didn't work out so well for the Sox in retrospect.
I'm from New Jersey and got the Cubs on WGN back in early 80's, loved it and Harry, didn't care if they were good or bad, I'm a baseball fan and the games from Wrigley was great, I'm a collector and have many Sox early 80's games, love watching them and the announcers commentators Harry and piersal, McConnell,Wynn,Crandell then hawk, can't stand today's game or announcers, this is priceless, I have a very large collection from mid 70's to late 80's original broadcasts of all different baseball games, anyone looking I trade, I'd love to
You do? Oh damn. We gotta check out the games you have.
@@tubesocksbrigade3031 yes,are u a collector
@@albrownfromtheothersideoft3115 sort of. I don't have anything significant to trade and such. But i am fascinated by old school White Sox and baseball broadcasts (TV or radio) i do have lots of Sox games from WMAQ radio from the mid to late 70s
@@tubesocksbrigade3031 I have a few sox games from 70's,more then a few from early 80's n lots from mid to late 80's, all original broadcasts, some with the original commercials,pre,post game,no radio broadcasts but I do have a small collection of original baseball radio broadcasts,maybe 15-20 of other teams, I have a huge collection of baseball,nba,some college,some nfl, only original broadcasts, can't stand the replays with the graffics n condenced.

A drunk Harry Caray in shorts from the centerfield bleachers interviewing bikini-clad girls: pure Americana
God Bless the Chicago White Sox -
Ah, the days when the thought of a "mask" or "social distancing" were the farthest thing from anyone's mind. . .Will it ever be like this again? I'm beginning to wonder. . .But it's fun watching a game when life was definitely more fun than it is in 2021.
Nothing wrong with an opposing fan pouring beer on a manager's head? Boy times have sure changed!
By the way, I didn't need the cameraman to zoom out from Harry Caray after his interview with Sparky Anderson. Sorry Harry, but you just did not have the legs to wear shorts even back then!
Both of those were special. Loved it!
Oh C'mon man! Harry was gonna broadcast from the bleachers, so he dressed for it. . .Really? Seeing that zoom out on Harry was too much for your sensitive eyes to take? Really?
Sure would like to be there with the Blues Brothers. Jake and Elwood were White Sox fans. Go, White Sox!⚾️
Best announcer team in history
Fun Fact about that first vintage bumper at 0:00 -- Vijay Armitraj had quite an interesting career. He'd go on to take a minor role in the 1983 Bond film "Octopussy" before making a cameo as the USS Yorktown captain in "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home."
Brings back memories
As a Reds fan it breaks my heart looking at Sparky in that Tigers uniform.
As a Tiger fan I love it.
2:41:26- 7th inning stretch
Schlitz commercial at 3:04 classic!
3:03:57 yes it is
To me, Harry Caray is the second all-time best broadcaster in White Sox history to Hawk Harrelson. Harrelson was outspoken like Harry Caray was, but didn't get away with as much as Caray did. Nevertheless, both broadcasters are in the National Baseball Hall of Fame for their unique contributions.
Real baseball
yup...good pace of play....real slides...no replay...no questec..nuff said!!
Holy 🐄 what a game
First Sox game I've seen with Nancy Faust playing the National Anthem.
1:30.07 Sick curve ball for strike 3 backing Whitaker away.
White Sox uniforms are really cool but they should have been tucked in.
THX!!!!!

What’s with the watermark fuzzy memories? Kinda defeats its own purpose
I miss Harry! Most of the announcers today have no personality.
Harry wouldnt last a week in todays baseball. The lib morons would bitch about everything he says.
I wonder who won that match between Armitraj and Connors?
Amritraj! 6-4, 4-6, 6-3.
@@mikeydhh - The summer before that, at the U.S. Open, when they met, WNBC Channel 4 (New York, NY) staff announcer Bill Rippe, reading the sign-off newscast, pronounced Armitraj's first name as 'V.I.A.'
mikeydhh I knew it. Vijay always beat the top guys in warmup tournaments.
wmbrown6 LOL.
So they did show some games in the clear? I thought you had to pay for ON TV to see the games.
2:27:35-At no point does the inebriated Caray recognize that the batter is actually Lance Parrish. Too busy ogling the wet t-shirts.
He had too much Schlitz, ☀️, and 👙...
That’s why he was so entertaining. I remember he botched a score to a Yankee-Sox game. It didn’t take a rocket science to figure out the man loved his beer and and the game. Like one person said, Harry wouldn’t survive PC culture today....
That’s why other broadcasters hated him.
Harry Caray (PBP)
1-3/7-9
Joe McConnell (PBP) 4-6
Jimmy - Sun-Times rips when you Open IT ! - LOL !
My 30-ish daughters would disown me if they heard me chuckling at Harry's decidedly incorrect comments.
WTF - Gas Prices going Up - $1.00 Bring back that Price !
@3:26:00 This may shock you, but the price of a new car is now over $7,000!
Harry Caray seemed to have a different personality back in the day.
As charming as Harry Caray was, he sure like to stir shit up.
Quite the interrogation Harry put Sparky through....
Talk about not letting something go...
Good Lord..
Sparky should of asked to have his attorney present..
IIRC...either the next day after this or the next time the teams met. Larussa and Sparky had Farmer and Cowens do the pregame line up card bit with the umpires...they shook hands an squashed their beef
I’m a Cubs fan and not really a White Sox fan, but this is awesome! Thanks for sharing.
Harry really can't hold the microphone steady.
Harry - Quote BS - A Classic one !
At least, the White Sox could play home games at night, back then. What took the Cubs so long to install lights at Wrigley Field? Go, White Sox!⚾️
Harry had indulged in a 🍺 or 2 at breakfast.
Harry Carey left the Sox after the 1981 season , and Tony Larussa and Sparky Anderson joined their teams in 1979. So this is from 1979-1981
As it says in the video description, this aired 6/21/1980.
This must of been just before ON TV took over the station.
Bizarre that this channel is now a Telemundo station.
No, Telemundo.
It's been owned and operated by NBCUniversal since 1995.
Univision owns WGBO-TV, Channel 66.
@@mksaelens I must've been thinking about The U. 😂🤣
WSNS was first a SIN/Univision affiliate when 44 because a full-time Spanish station in July of 1985. They would end up switching to Telemundo in January 1989 after their contract ran out with Univision. The NBC ownership of Telemundo and WSNS happened in 2002.
Michael D. Roberts (Ipswich from Seinfeld) on the right at 42:18
Why not add the White Sox-Royals game--TV or radio--from August 8, 1976 when the White Sox wore shorts that day (in the first of two games played)? Chicago would win 5 to 2.
Yay the guy who will Ferrell played. How fun to see the real deal
"The guy Will Ferrell played". That's what a life amounts to.
