Just another White Sox game from a losing era. But...Harry Caray is on the call, at the top of his craft, from the pregame show where he calls out the losing pitcher of the previous night's game, to the broadcast, along with partner Jim Piersall, who once famously said, "I used to be crazy, now I'm just nuts." Piersall does the post game  with Joe Rudi, once a 3 time World Champion with the A's, but now finding himself stuck on one of the worst teams in the League. About as good a game as could be expected from two teams that averaged 67 wins apiece in 1980. But catch those Sox uniforms, and that 445 foot center field wall, probably the same configuration as 1910. And by the way, in the days when night games started at 7:30 pm, this game was over at 9:38.
