When baseball was fun...

If you crowd the plate on Bob Gibson, he would try to take your head off!

Lifelong Yankees fan but man, I loved this Tigers team

This was the last time the two teams with the best record played in a WS......then we got into the East-West divisional crap....I loved the Tigers...thnx for posting

I remember this series fondly. My school wouldn't allow any radios, so I skipped school and ended up listening to the game in an empty field near my house. Game one was a cold and rainy day here and I came down with a cold and had to stay home for the rest of the series, even though I was sick I never enjoyed myself more until 1984

Mickey Stanley my man

This year and '84...only year as a Tiger fan i didnt have to wear a paper bag over my head.

Gibson balks by todays standard 5 times

I was 10 years old and I remember the teacher wheeled in a tv and we got to watch this in class.

Tigers just too too tuff! A come from behind club that never said die. Great great team! Was ten years young in Dearborn Michigan, they let us watch the series at old Mc Donald School! Tigertown plenty tuff to beat!

Stormin Norman Cash, went to our Church!

Roger Maris catching a fly ball in the final inning of his career.

Denny McLain had an excellent season!

Ernie Harwell interviewing Al Kaline . . . two of the finest gentlemen ever to grace the MLB scene.

I am not sure about showing this video. The late Jonnie Woodall was a friend of mine, and was in the British sled at that race. He told me about it. Utterly terrible. This was a dreadful track; cursed I believe, as a number of lives were lost there. I slid a skeleton WC there in 1991. There was a memorial to Nitro in the cafe above Antelao, which was very sobering. He was a great guy, whom everyone loved, and we live in the shadows of these giants.

I was a 10 year old from Michigan when the Tigers won the World Series. Norm Cash was my all-time favorite !!!

Who was that tiger player that they named the batteries after? Alkaline.

Amen, they let us watch it to

Looks like Gibson was running out of gas.

Gibson pitching on 2 days rest. His opposite number, Mickey Lolich (who should be in Cooperstown) on 3. Greedy stumblebum Flood almost singlehandedly ruined ⚾️ (and other pro sports) by challenging the Reserve Clause: hyperinflation of players' salaries = rising ticket prices, longer, unnatural seasons, and loss of team identity. The Tiger team you are watching was pretty much intact from 1966-1972. You could watch them play for 50 cents. The season ended while it was still warm: this game was on 10/10. Nowadays, it's all Steve Miller: 'Go on, take the $ and run ... Neither players nor owners are sportsmen, doing it for the love of the great game of baseball. 'Build it and they will come ... God bless America.

Black and white video in 1968?

The city of Detroit needed this victory in so many ways. It was such a blessing.

gibson was clearly gassed this wouldnt happen today, because after the first single, despite throwing a shutout...he wouldve been lifted for an rp

Just to set the record dtraight, this was not the same Willie Horton that Geotge HW Bush used in his ads to demolish Muchael Dukakis in 1988.

The Cardinals were a badass team. There was no way the Tigers were going to beat them, and yet they did. Mickey Lolich was THE MAN!!!

I was 13 and in junior high school at the time. Color TV was a new thing. My school HAD color TV, and since back then games were played in the afternoon, we students were allowed to stay after school to watch the games and be bussed back home afterwards. What a country we were back then. I can hardly believe it. To have all my classmates SCREAMING after that hit will remain with me the rest of my life.

Ken Burns, in his Baseball ducumentary, lauded Bob Gibson for his 1.12 season earned run average. 1968 was the era of the pitcher. But Burns inexcusably failed to mention Denny McLain's 30 wins that same season. That was just as much evidence of the point Burns was making.

When I was in 5th grade we got to pull our desks out into the hallway at school and we got to watch the 68 world series. That's when I became a Tigers fan for life. I thank Westwood Elementary for having the opportunity to watch some of those great games.

Mickey Lolich was such a freaking stud.

The gen z players of today are so immature compare to these men. NO tattoos, green hair, dreadlocks. Just normal looking men acting like men. Today they act like it's the world series after every regular season game wins.

Both pitchers pitched 9 innings and hit their spot in the order. That's the way the game was made to be played. Most teams had only 4-man starting pitching rotations, and let their pitchers go deep into games if it looked like they still had stuff. Denny McClain won 31 games that year. Today it's a miracle if a pitcher wins twenty, and lucky if he even gets 30 starts.

What a great World Series for Baseball and the city of Detroit.

Awesome ty

RIP HARRY! ❤

Lolich was the savior for the Tigers in this 1968 series.

This Detroit team I was 13 years old my favorite team of all time I’ll never forget the joy of them winning against the Cardinals McLain winning 31 games And Mickey Waiting three games in the World Series

Ahh when baseball was a classic game played by gentlemen athletes . Boy have things have changed not even baseball is the same .😊

This was the first world series after I was born and the last before the league championship series. Years later, the Pujols led Cardinals would get the best of the Verlander led Tigers in a world series rematch.

5:05 the fire alarm that goes of, is the same from the snowblind?

The most terrific lineup of my teens

After the summer of 1967, this was like a miracle to the city of Detroit. From the city on fire, with tanks, and gunfire, to people of all colors dancing in the streets of Detroit.

Haunts me to this day!

My dad had 50$ on this Championship. He was yelling as the Detroit Tigers won it. Amazing Game

I fondly remember this jingle. When I first heard it in '69 or so, I recognized it right away as the voice of Ron Dante and the Archies. Now I'm glad to find out I was right! And it's just as good as ever, though I never cared for Tang. I prefer freshly squeezed orange juice, or, even better, Orange Julius! Thanks for bringing this back!

Great Series - Great Comeback by the Tigers! Talk about a difference in what players earned back then vs now: After he retired from baseball, Mickey Lolich owned and operated a little donut shop in Lake Orion, MI. We used to stop in after church to buy donuts, and he would be there working, making donuts and pastries. Met him several times.

I was a 10 year old kid sitting in a downtown Atlanta soul food restaurant watching this game. What a great memory you brought back! Boy! How I miss those days and that era of baseball. Thank you!

Norm Cash. No helmet against Bob Gipson. Great times.

Harry Caray!!!

Back then players stayed with the team, as long as they played well, they were more ambassadors of the city. Tickets were relatively inexpensive and the players earned good pay NOT bazillions.

Sure was a lot of first pitch swinging.
