Grade:  85/100.  Rough commercial edits, but otherwise pretty decent for such an old game.

 

Notes:  Veteran Roy White leads the Yanks to victory, snapping a 1–1 tie with a home run in the 6th inning. New York gains its 3rd straight championship series over Kansas City. Graig Nettles' homer accounts for the other run, as Ron Guidry shuts down the Royals.

Thanks Rai!
