OTR baseball games
Well, to follow up...yes, O'Malley wanted out of Ebbets Field. I went to see a game there as a nine-year old against the Pirates. I don't remember much about it. But even in the anti-O'Malley documentaries, the experts cited claimed Ebbets Field was a dump--the bathrooms stunk, no parking, a...- Neal Lavon

I had found the 8 31 game on the archive.org site. But try as I may to find the Giants last game in the PG on YouTube, I had no luck.

I know this is an old thread but it is really relevant to something I was working on for a while. I wondered why there were no recordings of the 1946 Dodgers-Cardinals Playoffs given that there are recordings of all the others before the switch to Divisional play. Now, I know why. Thanks...- Neal Lavon
