Miley BB CD 1970 World Series Game 5
Called by Jim Simpson and Jim McIntyre

Cincinnati scores three in the first, but that's all they will get off Mike Cuellar, who pitches the distance for the Birds.  Frank Robinson's home run plates Baltimore's first two runs, and they go on to score 7 more.  Brooks Robinson is the Series MVP.
