The #National's Tommy Thomas is having a memorable game. The #Yankees can't get past the pitcher, and the Murderer's Row one-two of #BabeRuth and #LouGehrig haven't a hit between them. Gehrig is leading off the sixth, can Thomas work through his injuries and deliver a clean inning for Washington?

The New York Yankees are on course to complete a historic season, going through the 154-game season without being shut out. Today, they're visiting the Washington Nationals, and the Murderers' Row is hungry for runs. How does opposing pitcher Tommy Thomas handle the #Yankees third hitter, Babe Ruth?

Our next game takes us to Washington, August 1932, and the Murderers' Row are in town. The #Nationals' Carl Reynolds is back after being punched out at the plate by Bill Dickey. The #Yankees' Bill Dickey. Tune your AM ears to our podcast or YouTube for the latest recreated radio broadcast.

The latest Classic Baseball Radio episode is the San Diego Padres at New York Mets game from May 6, 1972. On the Padres' line-up is Nate Colbert, and tonight is part of his spectacular season. This broadcast (podcast) is waiting for you at classicbaseballradio.com

It's been a nervy start to this May 1972 game between the visiting San Diego Padres and the New York Mets. We reach the bottom of the second with no runs for either team on the board. youtube.com/shorts/SWdH0... You can "tune in" to our recreated radio broadcast of the game on YouTube or by podcast.

The first player strike is over, and most players are rusty. Not Mets' legend Tom Seaver. He loves playing against the Padres (he struck out 10 consecutive Padres in 1972, setting a Major League record). With the Padres visiting New York, let's tune in to our recreated radio broadcast of the game.

The Padres are down by two in the fifth as their pitcher, Bill Grief, steps up to face the pitcher the Padres fear the most... Mr Terrific himself, the New York Mets' Tom Seaver. www.youtube.com/shorts/rU-29...

Our next game to listen to will take you back to May 6, 1972. The player strike is over, but everyone is still a bit rusty. The Padres have made the cross-country trip to Shea, and Tom Seaver is waiting for them. Tune your AM ears to our podcast or YouTube for the latest recreated radio broadcast.

Classic Baseball Radio has been shortlisted as one of the Best Sports podcasts in Scotland. The shortlist was announced this week. We’re joined by rather a lot of football podcasts... this is Scotland after all. Leave Frank McAvennie out of it, we've got Ted Williams, Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle....

It's July 1945, and the Reds are facing a five-game sweep at Wrigley Field. In the bottom of the first, Stan Hack gets on base for the Cubs, and Don Johnson sac-bunts him over. Can the imposing Bill Nicholson get him home? If you were listening on the radio, it might have sounded like this....

When you're on a run to win the National League pennant, sometimes you need to make a big signing. The Cubs did that in 1945, grabbing Hank Borowy from the Yankees. In our latest AM radio recreation, Borowy is making his first start and faces Vern Kennedy of the Reds in this game from July 29 1945.

The Reds are visiting the Cubs. It's the top of the third, and the Reds are down two runs to one. With two outs, Dain Clay has drawn a walk, and Dick Sipek - one of a handful of deaf baseball players in MLB history - steps up to face Hank Borowy (recently poached away from the New York Yankees).

this is a beautiful obituary for john sterling. he still had people choosing to listen to baseball on the radio, an extraordinary feat. and he was always, always, unstoppably kind. www.nytimes.com/athletic/602...

We're heading back to July 29, 1945 for our latest broadcast, as the Chicago Cubs welcome the Cincinnati Reds. Crucially, Hank Borowy, recently 'stolen' from the Yankees for $100,00, is the Cubs' starting pitcher. Tune your AM ears to our podcast or YouTube for the latest recreated radio broadcast.

Our latest recreated radio broadcast takes you back to June 16, 1961 as the Cardinals visit the Pirates. Inside Wrigley Field, you'll find Stan Musial, Roberto Clemente, Bill Mazeroski, and a young Bob Gibson. Do you want to know more? Let's explore the game, the players, and the future.

For my latenighters and overseasers, it’s the new episode of Deep Left Field featuring in-depth conversations with #Bluejays Dylan Cease & Brandon Valenzuela. Also, Isiah Kiner-Falefa talks about the fallout from Game 7 of the World Series and we open the mailbag for your Brendon Little thoughts:

A huge thank you to Aidan for inviting our play-by-play onto the Painting Corners podcast. A tiny bit of PBP from the Mexico series, but also a lot of talk about Major League Baseball and its challenges from a Scottish perspective. Also, our debate over "nothing or nil" when calling scores continues

The Pittsburgh Pirates are trying to prove the 1960 World Series was not a fluke. The St Louis Cardinals have a lineup packed with young players looking to establish themselves. Hall of Fame-bound Bob Gibson is becoming the fearsome pitcher that will dominate 1968, and Smokey Burgess is up next.

It is 1967, and the Boston Red Sox are chasing The Impossible Dream. Facing them on July 27 are the California Angels. It's the top of the 5th, and the Angels have already cut the Red Sox's lead to 2-1. With runners at the corners and two outs, the pressure is on Jim Fregosi to tie the game.

One of the earliest games we have recordings of Emmet Ashford is the Yankees at Senators game on Jul 3rd, 1966, where he played First Base. You can listen to it here... podfollow.com/classic-base...

Along with Rollie Fingers, Sparky Lyle defined the role of a closing pitcher. That's after many years of establishing himself in the majors. Our latest AM radio recreation of the Angels at Red Sox will see him put on the mound in the bottom of the tenth. Could this be the first win for the rookie?

It is the summer of 1967, and the Boston Red Sox are on a tear, led by the hard-charging legend of Carl Yaztrzemski. As they welcome the California Angels, can Yaz's bat light up Fenway and help the Red Sox take one more step towards the American League top spot? #baseball #history #podcast #radio

This is a pretty good visual on the margin of error on ABS measurements. My head is taking the 0.4 inch figure into any discussion. Frankly, anything less that 0.4 and it's "Call Stands" for me.

Should we all reintroduce our baseball allegiances for a quick refresher? No explanation. 1) Building a love of baseball in Scotland 2) Paper scoring is the best way to learn and enjoy the game 3) What *is* the margin of error on the terrible ABS system? 4) Yes there really is baseball in Scotland

Not good enough Fox, not good enough. And I'll bet if you took even a brief look round the office you'd find some exceptional talent that you're blocking from the microphones.

As Gil Hodges steps up to bat, the Brooklyn Dodgers are already down by one run in what will turn out to be a critical series against the Milwaukee Braves. The Boys of Summer are starting to run out of gas, while the Braves have a brand-new manager and philosophy in Fred Haney.

Just before Opening Day games, let's head back to Ebbets Field on June 17 1956. The Braves' new manager, Fred Haney has taken the first game of the doubleheader 5-4. Can the Dodgers punch through in game two? Tune your AM ears to our podcast or YouTube channel for this recreated radio broadcast.

As Pete Rose works the count, neither the visiting LA Dodgers nor the welcoming Cincinnati Reds have scored. All the lights are on (3 balls, 2 strikes, 2 outs), and Rose is hungry to get on base and into scoring position at Crosley Field. Listen to this play (and more) in our AM Radio Recreation!

The last class of the Harry Wendelstedt Umpire School. MLB might be taking over umpire finding for Majors and Minors, but there are more games and umpires needed worldwide... and they've just lost one of the best practical courses. www.nytimes.com/athletic/704...

Following the dominance of pitchers in the 1968 season, MLB has taken steps to even things out, and hurlers across the two leagues are dealing with smaller strike zones and lower mound heights. Don Sutton is one of them, as he faces Jim Maloney of the Cincinnati Reds in April 1969.

It's the top of the 6th at Crosley Field, and both the visiting Dodgers and the hosting Reds have till to score. It's Pitcher v Pitcher time, as the Reds' Jim Maloney hurls towards his opposite number, the Dodgers' Don Sutton. Join our recreated AM broadcast from April 9, 1969 on Podcast and YouTube

Hoyt Wilhelm is coming on in relief for the Baltimore Orioles as they take on the New York Yankees. Given the vicious nature of Wilhelm's knuckleball, catcher Clint Courtney needs a secret weapon... a 45-inch catcher's mitt. Head back in time to August 15 1960 with your AM radio (err, podcast).
