Baseball of the 1960s
Baseball, ahhh, America's favorite past time. It may be football today but in the 60s it was baseball. I
recall watching on CBS on Saturday afternoons, CBS Baseball Game of the week, hosted by Dizzy Dean and Pee Wee
Reese. Just looking back, I remember how Dizzy Dean would butcher the English language but he sure was fun
to listen to. I recall him singing the "Wabash Cannonball" on the air. Many baby boomers who listened
to Dizzy Dean and Pee Wee Reese would say they were by far the worst announcers. Keep in mind when I
listend to them I was a teenager and I enjoyed them and I as I do today always root against the Yankees but the
following Saturday I tuned in to watch them.
Now back in time and see the final standings of the 60s decade of baseball and see if you can once again remember
how really great baseball of the 60s truly was.
