Ja marad a net! Ráadásul a rádió közvetitésért is fizetni kell, ha jól tudom. Úgy hogy lehet bámulni a monitort, és elképzelni, a mint Chipper Jones a Yankees Stadium meccs nyerő home run-t üt a jobb sarokba.:))

Seattle Mariners leadoff hitter Ichiro Suzuki signs his autographs on baseball goods hung by fans from the spectators' stand prior to Game 6 of the Japan-U.S. All Stars baseball series at Tokyo Dome in Tokyo, Saturday, Nov. 16, 2002.
Lehet róla szó, már más is kérte. Ha meg tudom oldani a technikai részét, miért ne? De nekem se pénzért vették fel, úgyhogy én se tarthatom a markom. Csak intéznem kell egy másik magnót.
Nna, egy meccset láttam az egész idényből (thnx UPC), de a fenébe is, az a World Series 7. meccse volt! Képes voltam felvetetni vkivel videóra Pesten.
A 6. meccs lehetett az igazi dráma, jó lenne azt is megnézni. Amikor a 7.en elment 41-re az Angels, érezni lehetett, hogy itt már nem lesz több fordulat, ha másnap reggelig játszanak, akkor se. Ennek mondjuk ellentmond, hogy ha jól emléxem, a Giantsnak eggyel tőbb hit jött össze, de hát azt kitehetik az ablakba.
Spiezio nagyon állat volt azzal a gitárral!!!
Gene Autry's career spanned some 60 years in the entertainment industry, encompassing radio, recordings, motion pictures, television, rodeo and live performances. He also became a broadcast executive and major league baseball owner.
Known as 'America's Favorite Singing Cowboy', he is the only entertainer to have five stars on Hollywood's Walk of Fame, one each for radio, records, film, television and live theatrical performance (including rodeo). In his ability to transcend media and in the sheer scope of his output, Gene Autry was unsurpassed as a popular image-maker of the American West.
Born in Tioga, Texas, on September 29, 1907, Orvon Gene Autry bought his first guitar at the age of 12 for $8. By the late 1920s, he was working as a telegrapher for the railroad in Oklahoma. While he was singing and playing in the office one night, Gene was discovered by the great cowboy humorist Will Rogers. Rogers advised the young Autry to try radio, and the rest is history.
Gene Autry began his radio career in 1928 and made his first recordings a year later. His first hit came in 1931 with That Silver-Haired Daddy of Mine, the first record ever certified gold for having sold more than a million copies. Gene made his film debut as a dude ranch cowboy singer in the 1934 Ken Maynard film In Old Santa Fe. In 1935, he made his first starring appearance in the science fiction Western serial The Phantom Empire. By 1937 he was America's Favorite Cowboy, voted the Number 1 Western Star by the theater exhibitors of America. In 1940 the theater exhibitors voted Autry the fourth biggest box office attraction, behind Mickey Rooney, Clark Gable, and Spencer Tracy. Autry remained in first or second place among cowboy stars in terms of box office draw until he retired from motion pictures in 1953.
He appeared in 93 feature films and made 635 recordings, more than 300 of which he wrote or co-wrote. Some of his best known movies are based on his hit records, including South of the Border (1939), Mexicali Rose (1939), Back in the Saddle (1941), The Last Round-Up (1947) and Strawberry Roan (1948). Gene's recordings have sold more than 60 million copies and brought him more than a dozen gold records. Be Honest With Me was nominated for an Academy Award in 1941. Gene Autry's beloved Christmas and children's records Here Comes Santa Claus (1947) and Peter Cottontail (1950) went platinum (for more than two million copies sold), while Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1949) remains the second best selling single of all time, with sales totaling more than 30 million.
In addition to his movie and recording success, Gene Autry's Melody Ranch was heard weekly over the CBS Radio Network between 1940 and 1956. During World War II, Autry enlisted for service on the air during a broadcast of the show, going on to serve his country as a flight officer with the Air Transport Command. From 1943 until 1945, he flew large cargo planes in the China-Burma-India theater. When the war ended, Autry was assigned to Special Services, where he toured with a USO troupe in the South Pacific before resuming his movie career in 1946.
Realizing that the days of the B-Western were numbered, in 1950 Autry became one of the first major movie stars to move into television. For the next five years, he produced and starred in 91 half-hour episodes of The Gene Autry Show, as well as producing such popular TV series as Annie Oakley, The Range Rider, Buffalo Bill Jr. and The Adventures of Champion. In the late 1980s, Gene and his former movie sidekick Pat Buttram hosted 93 episodes of the 90-minute Melody Ranch Theatre show on Nashville Network, spotlighting the telecasting of his old Republic and Columbia movies. The show was one of the highest rated programs on TNN.
Gene Autry's great love of baseball prompted him to purchase the American League's California Angels (now the Anaheim Angels) in 1961. As was his trademark, through the team, Gene provided the fans with quality entertainment. Long active in Major League Baseball, Autry held the title of Vice President of the American League until his death.
He was a 33rd Degree Mason and Honorary Inspector General and was given the prestigious award of the Grand Cross of the Court of Honor. Among the many hundreds of honors and awards Autry received were induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame; the American Academy of Achievement Award, the Los Angeles Area Governor's Emmy from the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences; and the Board of Directors Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Achievement in Arts Foundation. Gene Autry also was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters' Hall of Fame, the National Cowboy Hall of Fame, and the National Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame. He received the Songwriters' Guild Life Achievement Award and the Hubert Humphrey Humanitarian of the Year Award. He was honored by his songwriting peers with a lifetime achievement award from ASCAP.
A long cherished dream came true with the opening, in November 1988, of the Autry Museum of Western Heritage in Los Angeles. Gene stated: "It has always been my intention to build a museum which would exhibit and interpret the heritage of the West, and show how it has influenced America and the world." The Autry Museum is now acclaimed as one of the foremost museums of the American West, with important collections of art, artifacts, and documents, drawing millions of visitors from around the world. Gene Autry's legacy will live on at the museum he founded, and in the hearts of his fans.
GENE AUTRY'S COWBOY CODE
1. The Cowboy must never shoot first, hit a smaller man, or take unfair advantage.
2. He must never go back on his word, or a trust confided in him.
3. He must always tell the truth.
4. He must be gentle with children, the elderly, and animals.
5. He must not advocate or possess racially or religiously intolerant ideas.
6. He must help people in distress.
7. He must be a good worker.
8. He must keep himself clean in thought, speech, action, and personal habits.
9. He must respect women, parents, and his nation's laws.
10. The Cowboy is a patriot.
cowboy singer and actor who made 95 movies, starred in The Gene Autry Show on television, and at the time of his death was the only Western star still on the list of top ten all-time box office moneymakers. His folksy tunes include “Back in the Saddle Again” and the Christmas classic, Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer. After he retired from show business, he went on to a successful business career, investing in several television and radio studios and buying the California Angels baseball team. The Angels won three American League pennants (1979,82,86) during Autry's 38 years of ownership, but never made an appearance in the World Series; had the number 26 retired in his honor as the team's 26th player in 1982; in May 1996 the Walt Disney Co. bought 25 percent interest in the team and renamed the California Angels, the Anaheim Angels in November 1996
Pár észrevétel még, amiket már nagyjából ti is leírtatok.
Lackey nagyon jól játszott! Már fáradt, és ezért kellett levinni a 5th inningnél. De egyébként egy újonctól szerintem fantasztikus teljesítmény, amit a WS-ben produkált.
Sajnáltam én is a kis Baker srácot, de a papát is...
Speizio gitártörés :-)))) Tényleg nagyon akartak, ez látszott. 0-5-nél HR volt a fordulópont, egy sima meccset fordítottak meg ott.
Erstad mentése is fantasztikus volt, ez a tegnapi meccsen fontos volt, de szerintem a 6. game után már olyan lélektani előnyük volt, hogy ha még itt ponto(ka)t szerez a Giants, utána is hozzák a meccset.
Végezetül még annyit az egész WS-hez, hogy szerintem az Angels pitcher-jei sokkal jobbak voltak a végén, és ez döntő különbség volt (na meg persze a nagyobb akarat, de ez kicsit össze is függ az előzővel).
A "Majom" megérdemelte, bár nekem az az érzésem, hogy a CSAPAT nyújtott kiemelkedőt, és ezért is nyerhették meg a WS-t. Sokkal jobban akarták, és el is hitték, hogy végre megnyerhetik a címet. Szerintem az Angels nem jobb csapat a Giantsnél, de hát sokat számít az akarás. (természetesen nem azt akarom mondani, hogy a Giants nem akart nyerni)
Nagy gratula az Angyaloknak a bajnoki címhez!
a meccset sajna majd csak videóról tudom megnézni (ha minden jól megy), és el nem tudtam képzelni hogy lehet "elörevetődve, hátoncsúszás, és még egy bukfenc hátra..." figurával elkapni egy labdát :)))
hát valahogy így:
gondolom innen jön még a hátoncsúszás+bukfenc...
naggggggyon remélem hogy felvették nekem a meccset!!!
meglegyen a 3 out és hozni a meccset, ez lenne a closer feladata. rodrigez egy istenadta tehetség, de egy újonc, nagyon fiatal, tehát nem csoda hogy nem bízzák még rá az uccsó inninget. nem mindegy, hogy miközben dobsz, az a szitu, hogy ha megütnek még lesz 1-2 inning ahol a csappattársak javíthatják az esetleges hibádat, vagy ha hibázol akkor az ellenfél nyeri a meccset (pláne a WS-t). agyilag-lelkileg azér ez nagyon nem mindegy.
