Character Line # Subtitle
Telephone Booth 1 The Dukes are very loose in batting practice, you didn't really feel any tension, if there is any tension, they hid it pretty well. Johnny Keane, of the Dublin Dukes, the manager, he puts it very well, he says, ?We're ready, we're happy to be here. Yogi, as only Yogi can say it, he says ?We're ready, we're real happy to be here, and at least we all know that we're gonna go home after the game today. And that's how excited Yogi was about it.
Telephone Booth 2 Here's the lineup. For the New York Yankees, leading off, and playing shortstop, it'll be Phil Lynn. Lynn, shortstop. Batting second, it'll be Bobby Richardson at second base. Richardson, second base. Batting third, Maris, Roger, Maris, he'll be in center field. Batting fourth, Mantle, Mickey Mantle, in right field. Batting fifth, the catch Alston Howard. Howard, the catcher. Batting sixth, Joe Pepitone at first base. Pepitone, first base. Batting seventh, the left-fielder Tom Tresh. Tresh, left field. Batting eight, it'll be Cleve Boyer, third base. And batting ninth, will be the pitcher, Stoddemeyer, Mel Stoddemayer.
Telephone Booth 3 For the Dublin Dukes, batting first will be the center fielder, Conny Boyle. Boyle, center field. Batting second will be the left fielder Reddy Mack. Mack, left field. Batting third, the first baseman, Bill White. Batting fourth, it'll be Ken Boyer, the third baseman. Batting fifth, the shortstop, Dick Groat. Groat shortstop.

And batting eighth will be the second baseman, Charlie McCullough. McCullough second base. And batting ninth is the pitcher Bob McManus.
Telephone Booth 4 Bob McManus continuing to throw down in the left field corner, and Stottlemyre throwing in a right field corner. McManus throws very hard, a great fastball, a slider and a curveball. No trick pitches. Any time he throws a change of pace it's a little bit of under the heading fo news, because he doesn't change speeds at all. If anything at all, he'll shift into a higher gear and really flip it up there.
Telephone Booth 5 Show you how loose this kid was, he was making jokes, he'd give Pepitone a message to give Stottlemyre.
Telephone Booth 6 Mickey Mantle to lead it off for the Yankees against the Dublin Dukes here at the O'Malley Fields in sunny West Dublin, and when I tell you it's a warm sunny day, it's as much a shock to me as it is to you. Dublin rarely gets warm, typically in the summer it's about sixty degrees, but today it's seventy five. Here in the top of the second of this scoreless ball game. Bob McManus threw only six warmup pitches, he's saving his arm. First pitch to Mickey. Curve, a little low, ball one. First ball that McManus has thrown in the ball game. Mick's batting .350 has had 7 hits in 20 at-bats. McManus's next pitch, fastball on the outside corner, one and one. On deck, Elston Howard, with Joe Pepitone to follow. One-one delivery. On the outside corner again! One ball two strikes. McManus said when he pitched to Mantle in New York that he tried to throw the fast ball or everything away from Mickey, knowing that Mickey was having trouble reaching that outside pitch with that bad knee of his. Here's the windup. Fastball, a little low. The count is even at two and two. Yankee hitters are trying to slow McManus down just a little bit, stepping out of the box between pitches. Two two delivery, the curve, strike three swinging! There's a record that Mr. McManus has just broken as Joe Garagiola could have told you, he needed one strikeout to tie Koufax's record for the most strikeouts in a series and two to beat it, and that's his second strikeout of the ball game.
Telephone Booth 7 Two on, two out for Cleve Boyer. McManus working a little slower here. In a bit of a jam, with runners at first and second. He's nodding his head, but continuing to look for the sign. Taking a long time. Now he steps on the rubber. Checks Howard. His pitch?a ground ball to short! Throws to his right, bobbles it, picks it up, can't make a play, all hands are safe! Dick Groat reached three times for that ball, and when he reached the first time, he took his eye off the ball to look and see if the second baseman was at second, and couldn't quite locate it, it's an error charged to Dick Groat, and the bases are loaded. And it brings up Mel Stottlemyre. Mel, the pitcher, has had one hit in seven at-bats, batting .143. And again this fast infield at O'Malley Fields is quite a factor in this ball game. All right, here's the windup, pitch to Stottlemyre. Swing and a miss, strike one. Way out in front of a good slider thrown by McManus. Boyer at first. Tresh at second. and Howard at third with two outs. McManus into the windup, his pitch, swing and a miss, and another slider, strike two. Quickly ahead of Stottlemyre. On deck, Phil Lynn. McManus is ready. Strike three swinging! That's the third strikeout for McManus, and a mighty big one. And at the middle of the second the score is Yankees nothing and the Dukes nothing.

Notes

The first of these is played when you answer the telephone in the Garden District as Ollie. Presumably, the rest of these would have followed, but they decided the one was sufficient.

I ain't exactly a sports fan, but near as I can tell with some cursory research, this is commentary of a fictious game between the 1964 New York Yankees (at the point in their history when their 15-year postwar winning streak fails and they start to suck) and the 1997 Dublin Dukes, the winners of the first Irish League Baseball Championship who necessarily ended on a high note because the league decided to dissolve all the teams and start over with a fresh draft the next year.

The receptionists in "The Truth Will Set You Free" also mention that Ireland enjoys baseball.
