1960 World Series, Pirates vs Yankees, & 1960 Pirates season highlights on DVD!

Description: 1960 WORLD SERIES Pittsburgh Pirates vs New York Yankees Plus: 1960 Pirate’s regular season highlights Rare Sportsfilms, Inc. is the rights owner of this DVD Pirate fans! The historic highlights of all seven games of the 1960 World Series plus the regular season highlights of the 1960 Pittsburgh Pirates are now available on a beautiful full-color 1 hour, 13-minute DVD by “RARE SPORTSFILMS”! Actual game-action highlights of all the big plays of every game of the series are included, all narrated by the late Bob Prince, well-loved Pirate broadcaster for decades. You may have seen some footage of this series on TV highlight shows in the past, but with poor, reddish-brown color. Now with the help of the most modern electronic equipment, you can see it again in beautiful natural COLOR! Every scene in the film (numbering in the hundreds) has been individually color corrected digitally to bring back the color and picture sharpness of the original Eastmancolor print! You’ll see great shots of both ballparks colorfully decked out in World Series bunting, closeups of the players, homers by Yogi Berra, Bill Skowron, Elston Howard, Bobby Richardson, Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris, Rocky Nelson, Hal Smith and of course, Bill Mazeroski. See the ivy-covered walls of old Forbes Field with vines turning brown in the autumn sun, home run balls sailing over the brick wall in slow motion and into the trees of Schenley Park! All this in the dramatic, exciting setting of one of the most memorable and historic World Series ever played! NOTE: This is NOT a DVD-R (almost all sports “DVD’s” seen listed on eBay are actually DVD-R’s, which are cheaply made by burning replicated disks). This is an actual DVD made from a GLASS MASTER! These are very high-quality and very expensive to make! You’ll be amazed to see the picture quality of this DVD! Here’s what you’ll see: * Game 1 at Forbes Field – 20-game winner Vern Law, with relief help from Elroy Face grabs the first game 6-4. Roger Maris’ first W.S. homer puts Yanks ahead 1-0 in first inning, but Bucs bounce back, and Billy Virdon’s great catch saves game. * Game 2 at Forbes Field - On an overcast day, Yankees break loose and crush Bob Friend and Pittsburgh, 16-3. Mickey Mantle slams two titanic homers in the rout, which ties the series at a game apiece. * Game 3 at Yankee Stadium – Bobby Richardson’s grand slam off reliever Clem LaBine caps 6-run Yankee first inning, as New York again drubs the Pirates 10-0. Mantle smashes long homer into the visiting bullpen. * Game 4 at Yankee Stadium - Pirates even the series behind Law and Face, squeaking out a 3-2 win over Ralph Terry. Law’s double is the key hit of the game. * Game 5 at Yankee Stadium - El Roy Face again saves the day, this time for Harvey Haddix, as Pirates prevail 5-2 despite another homer by Roger Maris. * Game 6 at Forbes Field - Back at Forbes Field, Whitey Ford tosses shutout and Yankee bats bomb Bucs 12-0 in another unbelievable rout. Richardson’s 12 series RBI’s already sets a new W.S. record with one more game still left to go! * Game 7 at Forbes Field – In one of the most dramatic games in all of baseball history, Pirates win see-saw thriller on Mazeroski’s home run in the last of the ninth inning 10-9! Fourteen of the runs are scored in the 6th inning or later, and 8 in the last two innings! Also on this DVD are highlights from the 1960 Pittsburgh Pirates regular season! “We Had ‘Em All The Way” is also narrated by Bob Prince, the old voice of the “Buccos”. Remember Vinegar Bend Mizell, Dick Groat, Don Hoak, Dick Stuart, Geno Cimoli, Virgil Trucks, Smoky Burgess, Bill Virdon, Bob Skinner, Rocky Nelson, Fred Green, Harvey Haddix, Clem Labine, Bob Friend, Dick Schofield, Roberto Clemente and Hal Smith? They’re all here with Haddix, Law, Face, Mazeroski, manager Danny Murtaugh, G.M. Joe L. Brown and coaches Sam Narron, Mickey Vernon and Frank Oceak. You’ll see great action shots from almost every possible angle in old Forbes Field, including great views of the left field scoreboard, outfield brick wall, the left field bleachers and views from the top of the roof as well as scenes of the exterior of the park. There is action from both day and night games, and from other ballparks around the National League as motion picture cameras follow the Pirates on the road to Wrigley Field, County Stadium, the Coliseum, old Crosley Field and brand new Candlestick Park! Shown are home runs by Dick Stuart, Bill Virdon, Bob Skinner and Don Hoak at Pittsburgh, while at Milwaukee on pennant clinching day, Clemente and Mazeroski connect at County Stadium. Covered is the celebration in the visiting clubhouse at Milwaukee with Bob Prince shown interviewing Clemente, Groat, Labine and Skinner, as well as the parade in downtown Pittsburgh welcoming the club back home after clinching the pennant! Of course, no highlight film of the 1960 Pirates would be complete without shots of Mazeroski’s winning homer. There are also scenes inside the Pirate clubhouse after the World Series and of fans celebrating inside the park (home plate is dug up after the game) as well as outside! This DVD brings back wonderful memories of the most exciting season in the history of the Pittsburgh Pirates, all in beautiful COLOR! .
