[@holtridge7337]

I remember the old paper ballots for the All Star Game voting. Now everything is done online.

[@Mar218100]

I still have several from the 1970s

[@holtridge7337]

​@@Mar218100Wow that is awesome.

[@nala3038]

I want the closing theme of TWIB played at my funeral as the credits roll on my life

[@holtridge7337]

Me too

[@drewb3665]

TWIB is arguably the greatest sports show in television history.

[@louisnagy3657]

I agree 100%

[@rzgrimes]

As a kid, that music meant I was about to witness the majesty of my favorite sport.

[@jean-francoisdenis7436]

Oh yeah.

[@jdsoultrn]

No arguments here!

[@louisnagy3657]

the opening and closing theme "iconic"

[@astralplaneencounters5812]

I miss the 70's......

[@bryanzimmermann4372]

That catch by Yastrzemski was unreal, especially for a 38 year old an off the Green monster. Great year for baseball. Welcome Mariners & Bluejays!!

Next week In baseball history

[@adamtparker6515]

7:55 Eeech good thing next year at the #MetropolitanStadium they shored up the left field booby traps, and it looks like the roll of sand at the base kept fielders feet in play #ouch. Fun fact, as an homage to the #Met attempt to add more seats, #Mikkelson field Fargo ND would add a whole outfield fan section main legion field ca. 82 where fans could watch thru fence which appears could not be added in time before the move to the Dome❤. Mikkelson also could be under 8ft of water in April and good as new come May #FargoParks

Baseball was so beautiful

[@Gl6619]

7:18 for people of a certain age..no, that’s not the guy who drove OJ in the white bronco…when I first heard the name during the chase I, myself, thought of Al Cowlens, the baseball player …not Al Cowlings, the football player…I didnt even know there was a football player by that name, until after the OJ case unfolded

[@JosephHallas]

This week in the nfl was good too.

[@MrAitraining]

oh that closing theme and sequence. Teary eyed from the nostalgia. Txs for posting these!

[@kandtherestcandtherest9080]

Great show. Thank you

[@MrAschiff]

It would be nice if they remastered these and put them in a DVD set

[@Mar218100]

MLB are the worst self marketers ever., not only stingy with the classic stuff in the archives but have essentially made it a pay per view sport. 😞

Dave Cash to Ted Sizemore to Manny Trillo. world Series Champs in 1980.

[@mikesbaseballcards]

Never knew about the Royals playing in Brewers uniforms. I know Reggie Jackson uniform was stolen n wore a Mariners uniform. I have the newspaper clipping on that one. LOL....

[@louisnagy3657]

I love this and looked forward to TWIB......I miss it!!!

[@eastman7037]

I like the history games... Please more

[@bmorebamma]

A young Jim Palmer. aaaahhhhhh those were the days

[@carsdaddy1]

Palmer had a awesome 12 to 6 curve 10:33

[@spider_hoss]

I never realized how awkward looking Palmer’s delivery was. Effective, but weird.

[@louisnagy3657]

My Dodgers ....Sutton got busted...Lasorda did push the rules but....He was right all the time....

[@dangelo1369]

Funny you should say that. You see, they said the same thing about these players in the 70's especially when this was the dawn of free agency.

[@stephenvargo6076]

DAngelo 136 that's a very fair point. However, I would have to agree with the comment above. Today's game is so much less majestic and the players are much less passionate about playing the game. And it shows on the field.

[@chrisdennehy9425]

Beware the alluring tricks the rosy glow of nostalgia can play....

[@markkalfahs1047]

....nostalgic reflection can be soooooooo deceptive for sure.....we tend to amplify the good things in our past and sprinkle it with a little self-delusion....not saying that is bad as it helps to cushion the blow of getting older......

[@bmorebamma]

The good old days weren't always good and tomorrow's not as bad as it seems
