Mickey Could Win. Scanning the rest of the field, Lindsay remarked that Michigan's Governor George Romney is probably dead politically, and was moribund even before he weighed in with his "brainwashing" blooper.

With one out in the fifth inning, Gibson hit a blooper into left field; Tom Tresh raced in, got a glove on the ball--and couldn't hold it.
