MLB 1985 06-09-85 LA Dodgers at Atlanta Braves

[@russellgoff6524]

My favorite announcing crew. Relaxed, understated, knowledgeable, good banter and insights, and sometimes very funny. Fell off a bit when Sutton replace Sterling. He didn't quite fit in---I sensed he was a little uptight. When we got cable in 1981 it was a thrill to discover we could watch baseball nearly every day. We naturally became Braves fans and enjoyed some memorable games and broadcasts over the years. An essential part of my 80s for sure.

Sutton fit in a lot better than Sterling (though he's good), Billy Sample, Bob Gibson, Darrel Chaney or anyone else they tried to make the fourth man in the team. Joe Simpson also seemed to fit in seamlessly when he came on board.

[@russellgoff6524]

@@clintscroggs65 Yeah, Billy Sample, there was a clunker lol

[@chrisuncleahmad666]

Probably more Braves than Dodgers fan watched this one. This was the same day the Lakers won the NBA title at Boston, finally ending the Celtic jinx

[@millypoo7713]

49:47... Bob Horner never played in the Minor Leagues. He was drafted out of Arizona State University in 1978, and went directly to the Braves.

Common Knowledge To Braves Fans…

I just finished watching the game played one year earlier to the day between the same two teams, but that time in Los Angeles. Valenzuela pitched that day too. Scully and Garagiola on that call. Sometimes KZbin can spoil you rotten -- now Johnson and Caray. Not bad at all.

Memories of Falcon Cable TV in Montebello, California with Superstation WTBS - Atlanta in our regular cable package. Montebello is a Los Angeles Suburb.

[@JEK]

yep we had it too in Orange County, along with WWOR-TV for Mets games. And I think WGN for cubbies.

At 2:19 ( chief knockahoma ) a real 100% Native American WOW no one had a problem with his war dance and sprint and neither did he!!! Fast forward 2021 people would have a fit over it REEEEEEE p.s. surprised yt did not block that part out of this game or bane it from being seen

[@gturcott1]

And the teepee

[@leftykoufax7084]

The chief was awesome, proud of his heritage, and making people happy, sad he is gone.

[@millypoo7713]

What's there to block out? This is a taped game from 1985. If anyone has a problem with it... then don't watch.

[@justinroark88]

I hate woke lefties

[@millypoo7713]

14:49... Dale Murphy home run ⚾

[@gturcott1]

Thank you soooooooo much!!!

[@diegomeredith-marquez929]

Would you happen to have any late 80's SF Giants games? Specifically, GiantsVision broadcasts?

[@clintscroggs65]

Brian Snitker was the bullpen coach?

[@dagjo]

Skip Caray seemed so old when I was a kid. Looking back, I bet he was quite the ladies man with those shades and the voice.

[@buicklincoln]

I think most guys who are on television regularly could be ladies men if they wanted to. A lot of women chase fame.

[@stevereber]

Awesome

Umpires (2:12) HP Charlie Williams 1B Randy Marsh 2B Billy Williams (Crew Chief) 3B John McSherry

[@markjaylandes]

I thought Randy Marsh was a geologist and weed grower-'Tegrity

[@59gaperry]

Go Murph!

[@DIMP11]

Dodgers would win the division this year but were beaten by the Cardinals in the NL Championship Series.

[@RAB6969]

in turn, the Cardinals were defeated by the Royals in a 7 game World Series.

[@steveadams7870]

Dale Murphy was my hero when I was a kid

By June 8th Mahler won his 9th game ..I doubt that...and his 3rd game winning RBI all by June 8th...is this fantasy base ball

[@DrunkenSlob]

Marshall looks like Chris Taylor
