swoboda,
I saw Lindsey Nelson in your post... one of the all-time great sportscasters... I first heard him on LBS, the Liberty Broadcast System, back in the 50s... they would recreate MLB games... they only lasted a little while... MLB probably shut them down.

When a game would get rained out... they would recreate a great game from the past and make it sound like you went back in time.

Would love to have heard one of those.
Lindsey was my favorite for baseball.
