Perusing archive.org I came across this promo film presented by the Narragansett Brewing Company. It was shot by Richard Borden and narrated by Chuck Gowdy. I haven't gone over every frame, but this was probably produced in late 1951 or early 1952. The images of Ted Williams (at about 5:08) show a Tigers vs. Athletics game. It is in the 8th inning. I was able to find
that game on retrosheet.org. It was on September 18, 1951. Virgil Trucks got the win over Sam Zoldak.
Sit back, pour yourself a nice cold Narragansett Brewing Company beer and enjoy some 60 year old baseball.
