I hope this link works. If not just do a youtube search for "who's on first". Classic

There is a reason outfielders need to raise their hands on a ground-rule double. The umpire needs them to signal this. Unfortunately, ours didn't, which means homerun.

So why was it ruled a double?

Last night was great in so many ways. No TV, no electronic devices other than a radio. The kids sat around the radio and me and the lady sat on the couch listening with a bowl of popcorn. It was like a trip back in time. I don't think I'll ever forget it. Will definitely be a game that dawg fans remember for a long time.

I watched it on CUSA streaming (all-access) with Tech announcers. It was great!! But I really like the old time feel you gave the family.

I don't know what tv there was. I had to watch on the internet stream. There are no dynamic camera shots and certainly no replay. Had to rely on Cramer's description for pretty much everything. He did immediately call ground rule double though.

This.

I just wasted half an hour, nice.

I don't know...Just guessing what the actual result was based on the outfielders' reaction.

I know some of you cool kids have played with your latechbbb settings, but I am just enjoying seeing a 19-page thread right now on the Gravy forum!

We didn't have a television in our house when I was in high school. Yes it was 1974 - 1978, and they were readily available then. I'm not sure what got me started, but throughout high school I listened to the Houston Astros games on the radio on a regular basis - even the year they finished 43.5 games out of first place (1975). I was beyond excited when my dad took me to Houston to see an Astros game live as part of my high school graduation gift. There are times when I still listen to football and baseball games on the radio when the games aren't televised. I hope they never stop broadcasting games on the radio.

Amen to this! Your imagination fills in the visual blanks.

Game 3 starts in a few minutes.

Injury report... Ullrich is about "80 percent" and will likely require surgery after the season, but he is available. Pitcher Clancy might get a couple of innings in today.

We could use a healthy Clancy in the rotation.

Wots . . . uh the deal.
