wow sports stations put so much more time and creativity in theor theme songs in the 90s. the songs were more dramatic and really felt like a professional presentation. i still love baseball tonights theme and show but alot of songs have changed on espn, nbc, cbs, etc. They've become more boaring (like alot of diehards would say nothing was better than the old NBAonNBC and NHL on Fox songs)
@DSW6698 I do and have loaded the whole thing with Brunansky in the corner, but the YT dorks always take it down so I've stopped trying to add it. Gets my channels suspended.
Ozzie and Ray Lankford, Glavin and Mark Lemke, Nails and Darren Daulton, Cal and Eddie Murray, Barry Bonds and Bobby Bonilia. This almost makes me cry. I miss baseball being as important as it was when I was growing up. I love this game
@braves15 Yep....Tuesday and Friday Doubleheaders, Wednesday and Sunday Night baseball..Then CBS kinda showed Saturday games...sometimes..haha.....Before the internet and DirecTV that was a HUGE deal...Changed the game with Baseball Tonight, you didn't have to read the morning papers and HOPE the West Coast games were "late" so you didn't find the scores for another day...
I have to say that ESPN has done Major League Baseball some well-deserved justice over the past 21 seasons. Looking forward to year 22 at The Worldwide Leader! BACK, BACK, BACK, GONE!
@sctvhound Thinkin' of that the other day as well in reading about the new dumb schedules for next year. Baseball tradition is to end the year on a lazy Sunday bidding farewell to your team (if you're not a playoff team). Not stuck at work missing it. But yeah, the '90 lockout forced the season back 3 days resulting in the Wednesday finish.

Do you happen to have any highlights from this game? I've been waiting 20 years to see it again.

This was the last time until next year, 2011, that the regular season ended on a weekday.

@BaseballDaysofYore OTOH, at least ending the season midweek keeps it from being overshadowed by the Almighty NFL.
