I recently received another vintage program that I bought on Ebay. This time, it's a Red Sox program against the visiting Twins on May 30th, 1969.
The Twins lost 2-3 behind manager Billy Martin. Killebrew went 1-4 with a two-run home run in the 7th inning. Carew and Oliva each had doubles. Dave Boswell took the loss for the Twins. Jim Perry was sent in as a pinch runner for Harmon Killebrew, and didn't even pitch!
Jim Lonborg was the winning pitcher for the Red Sox. Rico Petrocelli knocked in 2 runs in the bottom of the first inning and Tony Conigliaro had the winning RBI in the 6th, behind one of the Twins three errors. Ouch. Yastrzemski was 0-3 and was hit by a pitch.
The best thing about this program, which I wasn't aware of when I bought it, is the advertisement for the 1969 Plymouth Roadrunner on the back cover. Wow!
