Movie Review: THE MAN WE CALL YAZ
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one terrific DVD.
If you are a baby boomer from the New England area, or you are just BoSox-curious, you will love this 2-DVD set.
Disc 01 features a tremendous 40th anniversary recap of the 1967 season, which appeared last year on the New England Sports Network (NESN).
Bonus material on Disc 01 features the original "Impossible Dream" show that appeared (in B&W) on Boston's WHDH-TV, after the 1967 season had finished. Also included are three segments from the 1967 World Series highlight film, specifically the three wins posted by the Sox.
Arguably, Disc 02 is even more interesting than Disc 01.
It's a near-complete copy, of the local broadcast, of the next to last game of the 1967 regular season. The Red Sox hosted the Minnesota Twins in Fenway, needing a win to stay in the race. The makers of the DVD claim the copy of this game represents the oldest complete-game broadcast available, of any baseball game, that had been telecast in color. Jose Santiago started for the Red Sox, while Jim Kaat pitched for the Twins. Early in the contest, Kaat exited the game with an injury, giving way to Jim Perry, brother of Hall-of-Famer Gaylord Perry. The Sox came from behind, hung on, and won, behind homers by Carl Yastrzemski and George Scott. Boston went on to take the final game of the season the next day, clinching the flag, behind a complete game effort by Jim Lonborg.
Just plain great stuff ... get it.
