Reggie steps back into the box.
Got the new bat, don't forget.

1:40:08
And McGregor checks
the sign from home plate.

1:40:11
Here's the pitch. lnto the swing...
1:40:14
A long fly ball! Holy cow! That is gone!
1:40:16
(crowd cheering)
1:40:18
..to tie the Orioles two apiece
in the bottom of the fifth inning.

1:40:21
Reggie Jackson, who gets those
clutch home runs when you need 'em,...

1:40:25
..sure came through that time.
1:40:27
Holy cow! Unbelievable!
1:40:29
Over to Eyewitness reporter
John Jeffries,...

1:40:32
.. who has been covering this story.
1:40:34
Son of Sam struck last night
in Brooklyn for the first time.

1:40:37
l'm here in the predominantly black
neighbourhood of Bedford-Stuyvesant...

1:40:42
..in Brooklyn, New York,
to get a darker perspective.

1:40:47
- Ma'am.
- Yes?

1:40:49
l'm just hoping that they get him quick.
l don't care.

1:40:52
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

1:40:54
lt's terrible. Bad for Brooklyn,...
1:40:56
..bad for New York, bad for America
and bad for the world.

1:40:59
Thank you, sir.
1:41:01
- Your view.
- Let me tell you.

1:41:03
Son of Sam knows better than to
come into Bed-Stuy with that crap.

1:41:06
Cos we don't care. He's not that crazy.
l would love to beat him down right now.

1:41:10
He would wish he was dead. l'd just
love to catch him right here in Bed-Stuy.

1:41:15
Thank you.
1:41:16
Exactly. Hello.
My name is Cassandra Buchanan.

1:41:20
l live there at 85 Crown Street...
1:41:23
..and l am going to give you
your darker perspective.

1:41:28
The darker perspective is:...
1:41:31
..l thank God, l thank God, l thank God...
1:41:36
..that it is a white man
that kills all of those white people.

1:41:41
Because if it were a black man...
1:41:45
.. who kills all of those white people,...
1:41:49
..there would be the biggest race riot...
1:41:52
..right here in New York City.
1:41:56
And l'd like to say one thing.
1:41:58
l am surprised that you are
in the black community.
