Thanks for the great video if this game. Things sure have changed.

Baseball was very watchable back then.

Baseball and baseball players seemed more accessible to kids back then, ballparks were affordable. Us kids would get there early and get autographs while they were warming up. Leo Durocher (coaching then for the Cubs) once good naturedly called us truants and told us we better do well in school. They were our heroes back then, boys could be found in every neighborhood playing baseball in the streets (rubber ball) and parks, or playing "fast pitching" using a brick wall like that of a school in the summer, chalking in a strike zone box. They certainly were the good old days, I, like many others, would gladly go back in a flash.

Yeah amazing that he pitched 184 pitches. It wouldn't be allowed in today's game and I miss that aspect of the starting pitcher role. AND I don't understand why management has changed the game like this, really. I mean, they say it is due to pitch count to avoid injuries, but those guys like Maloney and Jackson seldom went down with injuries. It doesn't make any sense and no one ever presents statistics about injury correlation with numbers of pitches pitched. Also note that teams bunted more often then (although most of the players, just like today, stink at laying down a good bunt.) The current 2023 Reds team play the game like back then.. more running game with exceptionally good bunting (except the starting pitching pitches short of course) It was fun to see this "old fashioned" no-hitter in spite of the 10 walks and 1 HBP.

This is so much faster than today, it's remarkable. On the other hand, it's wild how the game looks very much the same otherwise. Baseball is timeless.

The ground level camera view of the pitchers and batters is excellent. It's too bad they don't use it today.

I was watching this at home on our black-and-white TV. I was 12 years old.

The great Jack Brickhouse! Called games for the Cubs, White Sox , Bulls , and Bears! No wonder he's in the HOF as a broadcaster! 🎙

I love the camera angle at 1:36. Behind and slightly to the left of home plate instead of directly behind the catcher. You can see more of the field, and the view isn't blocked by the catcher/hitter/umpire/pitcher. . Maloney was still around by the time I started watching baseball, around 1969-70, but he was shot by then. I think he was still on the roster when they won the pennant in 1970, but he wasn't pitching much even though he was still young, because his arm went bad. The Reds had a lot of pitchers in those days who were really good young, but all ended up with sore arms. I'm thinking of Maloney, Don Gullett, Gary Nolan, Wayne Simpson, Milt Wilcox and even Wayne Granger, their relief ace. Even Jim Merritt, who they picked up from Minnesota had one good year and his arm was ruined. I remember seeing Wayne Simpson as a rookie and never saw a more impressive young pitcher, but his career was basically over after half a season. From what both Nolan and Simpson have said, it was no coincidence all these guys had shortened careers (not Wilcox, but he had to change his style to compensate for lost speed, then he lasted a long time as a junk baller). Simpson and Nolan, as VERY young pitchers, were worked a lot and if they complained their arms were sore, they were told to "suck it up" or were called babies. So they kept sending them out until their careers were ruined. The great Reds teams of the 70s were weak in one department-they never had a Seaver/Palmer/Gibson type ace to anchor their pitching staff. They could have had one in Maloney or Simpson or Nolan or Gullett if they had used even basic common sense in using them and treating their ailments. As good as they were, they could have been even better with their already deadly line up and a pitching staff like the Orioles or Mets had. But love the Reds uniforms from this time. The name under the number seems like a gimmick, but it actually does make them easier to read. I remember Tommy Harper with the Brewers in the early 70s and he was really good. The Cincinnati organization was producing one great player after another in those days. Too bad they didn't know how to manage their pitchers or they could have won 5 or 6 World Series instead of two.

Haven't seen many games this old "in living color." Good stuff.

That same season, Koufax tossed a perfect game vs Chicago. The losing pitcher was Bob Hendley, and he gave 1 hit. The only other base runner reached on an error, and the run was unearned. Two base runners in the game.

The Cubs should make that uniform an alternate sunday home uniform

I did some research, and it was 3 weeks later that Sandy Koufax had a perfect game against the Cubs in LA. So 1965 saw the last Wrigley no hitter by an opposing pitcher and the last time the Cubs were no hit until Cole Hamels accomplished both on July 25th 2015.

These were the Reds of my youth, best offense in baseball. The outfield could play offense and defense, Harper, Pinson, Robinson were a tight unit. Reds nearly won the NL in 64. Dodgers had too much great.pitching in 65 and 66 for Reds to beat them. HoFers on the field: Rose, Robinson, Santo, Williams, and Banks. Perez did not play as Deron Johnson had his best season at 3rd with over 100 RBI. I loved the Reds uniforms, the helmet color was gray white.

maybe because it's a really old game but I'm riveted to every pitch!

Jim Maloney was one of the forgotten power pitchers of the decade of the 1960's. He won 134 games with a .615 winning percentage and a 3.19 ERA. He threw 30 shutouts and struck out more than 200 batters four times, with a high of 265. He tended to walk a lot of batters, however. In his career he pitched a nine inning no hitter, a ten inning no hitter, and lost another no hitter in the eleventh.

Even Brickhouse said how those high pitch count wreaked a lot of wear & tear on arms. So even as early as the 60s the wisdom of leaving a pitcher in the game late was debatable.

It's no wonder Maloney was done by 30; I'm surprised any pitcher lasted past 35 in this era. Now managers get anxious when a pitch count reaches 100. On this day, Maloney threw A HUNDRED EIGHTY-FIVE. Koufax was also done by 30; Walter Alston had worked him to death.

Maloney's number of pitches had nothing to do with his achilles injury. What a pitcher is able to handle as far as work is an individual thing-there are no hard and fast rules. Ferguson Jenkins, when with the Cubs, through 20 - 30 complete games year after year with no arm problems. As far as Im concerned a lot of modern players make so much money they are afraid to work too hard

Maloney had shoulder problems after ‘63 and definitely after ‘65.

Neither Maloney nor Koufax had their career ending injuries due to pitching related injuries. Maloney ruptured his achilles, Koufax had arthritis.

@@wizardglick9609 Pretty sure Koufax would readily agree that Alston overused him, especially in the '65 WS, but during other crucial stretches as well.

@@kurtwehrmeister5684 oh? Has it been documented that that's how he felt? I've never seen anything that says that. I have read that the arthritis that stopped his career was not pitching related.
