speaking of him, my cousin was Moose Moryn.  I never met him but he was my dads first cousin's husband.  So when I go to my grandparents I see pictures of him at the family events it's kind of cool.

and saw the last inning or so.  But I remember Moose's catch and Brickhouse going nuts.  I still have a postcard from Moose with a reproduction autograph on it.  Never a gazelle, he certainly gave it all he had on that catch.  Cardwell pitched well after that, but in my mind his Cubs' career was pretty much that wondnerful game.  Wish I had seen it all.

I'm surprised more have not commented on this yet, and he died just a couple days after Johnny Podres did. Two pitchers who didn't have long and distinguished careers but were a part of some glorious history.

the tape of that last out of Cardwell's no hitter with the cubs is a treasure, then he went on to be a big part of the mets '69 world series team.

someone on BCB had posted a link to the WGN archives or something and it had the entire ninth inning of his no-hitter in 1960.  I had seen the last out, of course, and heard both Brickhouse's and Jack Quinlan's call of it, but I remember watching the entire ninth inning was amazing.  I remember thinking how little the game had really changed, except that the pitchers at that time all worked much faster.  

I also remember hearing somewhere that the WGN film of Cardwell's no-hitter is the oldest actual game in the archives simply because they never kept old game film before that.  That game actually made some genius at WGN stop and think, "Hey, maybe some people in the future might actually want to watch this again.  Maybe we should keep this."  What a concept.  

Since this game was on a Sunday afternoon, you didn't have school that day.  Maybe you came home from playing outside or something. I have the last two innings of this game on tape. Another exciting moment was when Musial pinch hit in the 8th, Cardwell struck him out and the place went nuts. Also has the commercials that Jack Brickhouse & Vince Lloyd did LIVE in the booth between innings! A different time indeed.

No big deal, I have a pretty cloudy memory myself, since I was also around at the time (9 yrs. old). Just watched it over again, & noticed on Ashburns catch in center, all the trash littering the warning track. There was no "basket " then.

how fans could rush the field in those days.  You'd get locked up if you tried that today.  I love footage with the old Andy Frain ushers....these guys were supposed to keep order and yet fans always made it onto the field.  The Andy Frain ushers were kind of like WWF referees.  Creating the illusion of order while sheer chaos is going on around them.  :)  

I have the interview on the field that Lloyd had with him, & he was very nervous with the mob around him, and couldn't wait to get to the clubhouse.  Even after he was in the clubhouse, the crowd was running all over the field throughout the "10th inning".

The Museum of Broadcast Communications has footage of the entire 8th and 9th innings of the game, along with video coverage of the on-field interview after the game.  Stan Musial pinch-hits in the 8th for St. Louis and is retired.  Ernie Banks hits in the 8th for the Cubs as well.  The Museum of Broadcast Communications used to have this entire sequence on it's web-site, but they have now pared it down to just the final out and the postgame interview.  I would imagine if you went to the museum itself, you could see the entire sequence, but I'm just speculating.  I watched it when it was on the website months ago, it was really cool to see at-bats by two hall of fame legends and the no-hitter, all in one 20 minute span, even though both Banks and Musial were retired.

Search for "Cubs" in the archives; they also have color footage of a short 1965 on-field interview that Jack Brickhouse conducted with Ernie Banks and Willie Mays.
