Yankees vs Tigers, Navin Field, 9/20/1934 - full radio broadcast (Tyson), second oldest to exist

  • This is the oldest full radio broadcast of a regular season baseball game known to exist (the 1934 All-Star Game is the only surviving full game broadcast that is older than this). Thursday, September 20, 1934, Yankees vs Tigers at Navin Field (Briggs/Tiger Stadium) in Detroit, Ty Tyson is the broadcaster, and also the PA announcer! Great old time radio. Lou Gehrig, Tony Lazzeri, Frank Crosetti in the lineup for the Bombers, and Hank Greenberg, Charlie Gehringer, Mickey Cochrane for the Bengals. Babe Ruth was in the ballpark, but unfortunately did not play due to injury (so the 1934 All-Star Game is the only surviving full game audio of Ruth, as he retired in early 1935). This was during the Tigers' '30's heyday, on their way to the AL pennant.
    Tyson includes many colorful ad spots along the way, telegraph machines can be heard through much of the broadcast (sending game info to outposts around the country; Art, one of the telegraphers, catches a foul ball at 2:11:14!), and Tyson even doubles as the PA announcer, but only for pitching changes and pinch hitters, which was likely the norm in those days (quick trivia: Tyson was also the PA announcer on May 2, 1939, informing the crowd when Lou Gehrig strode out to home plate at Briggs Stadium to present the lineup card without him in it). Just hearing the game as it slowly unfolded over 80 years ago is a treasure. Enjoy.
    ** Spoilers - Game results below! **
    7:57 - Comments on the Babe taking BP and sitting out
    10:29 - Gehrig's 1st AB (1st inning)(popout) - Lazzeri bats after Gehrig all game
    18:30 - Gehringer 1st AB (1st inning)(flyout)
    19:27 - Greenberg 1st AB (1st inning)(K)(bats after Gehringer all game)
    30:23 - More comments on Ruth being out
    36:06 - Gehrig's 2nd AB (3rd inning)(bases-loaded 2-run single, knocks Marberry out of the box - then Tyson uses the PA to announce the relief pitcher Hamlin into the game)
    51:00 - Greenberg's 2nd AB (3rd inning)(groundout)
    1:01:27 - Gehrig's 3rd and final at bat (5th inning)(groundout)
    1:11:50 - Greenberg's 3rd AB (5th inning)(single)
    1:44:09 - Greenberg's 4th and final at bat (7th inning)(fielder's choice, wild play, NYY CF Chapman thrown out of game, Tyson over PA announces his replacement)
    Final score, Yankees 11, Tigers 7
    NYY 2 0 6 0 0 0 1 2 0 - 11 17 4

      What a treat listening to this broadcast! Most teams back then had one front line broadcaster and maybe a backup when needed. Having grown up in NY, the only baseball broadcasters I knew were Allen, Rizzuto and Barber for the Yankees and then Nelson, Murphy and Kiner for the Mets. One man in the booth at a time...no "color analyst" and no sidekick. Can you hear the clickety-clack of the typewriters being used in the press box? Mr. Tyson was also the PA announcer for the games. He was a respected journalist and broadcaster. The shame is that there wasn't any way for games to be heard in other parts of the country. Later on, TV and the internet allowed that bridge to be crossed. I played this link while doing some household chores, and it was just like I used to do back in the day.
      Finding this also led to my "Googleing" your grandfather. So many articles lauding his leadership in the young days of radio broadcasting and live sports reporting.
      In my opinion, he truly deserves his enshrinement in the BHOF.

    I scored the game as I listened, sitting out on the driveway in the sun, stuck at home due to Covid 19. What a wild game! Eight errors, two plays with two errors each. 18 runs. You can hear the other sportswriters talking and the telegraph clicking. A woman was hit in the head by a foul ball in the 9th. Ruth was out due to a “charley horse,” and Gehrig seems to have been injured in the fifth. He didn’t run out a grounder and was replaced.
    One person mentions Ty’s sense of humor. In the sixth Hamlin walked Broaca, the Yankee pitcher, by throwing outside ad Broaca attempted to bunt. Ty said, “Well, he kept him from bunting.”
    I like that they let him recap each half inning, rather than going straight to commercials, as they do now.
    I notice he always says “runners on 3rd and 2nd” rather than “2nd and 3rd.”
    There was a double run down play in the 7th, and the manager Mickey Cochran batted. (Mickey Mantle was named after him.)

      Even when Ernie Harwell and Paul Carey were doing Tigers radio in the '70s and '80s, each man would work his innings more or less alone, save for the (very) occasional comment from the other. I don't think radio baseball is particularly well-served by the "conversational" format with nonstop analysis so often used on TV, though nowadays most teams evidently think otherwise.

This was the last Yankees season for Babe Ruth at age 39 batting a mere mortal .288 with 22 homers. This was a good Tigers team that lost a game 7 to the Cardinals but won the WS in 1935. This is a treasue. I play the baseball strat-o-matic game with some of its old teams offered by the game. This brings that game to life.

    Since we’re sharing old memories; my great grandfather would make great grandma go to the StL Cardinals games at our old Sportsman Park and she had to chart each pitch!!!! B(ball), S (strike), F (foul) etc, then he’d “recreate” the game in his mind!!!! Dad was a pitcher in both these team’s minor league systems after WW2! Thanks for the memories; they will always endure !!!

    Wow, the Tigers really played like crap in the field in this game. If you can't field or throw the ball well it will lead to a disaster. It's true now as it was when this game was played over 80 years ago. That's the great thing about baseball. You can listen to a game from 1934 in the present and you can picture the game in your head, and have no problem following the flow of the action as Ty Tyson announced it way back when. It's pretty much the same game now as it was then.

    I'm only 51, but my Dad was a sports announcer. I spent many an hour in various Press Boxes or Studios. One of the great things about Radio is (or, at least, was) that the announcer had to essentially provide the video with just the audio. For me, it's akin to sitting down with a well-written book.

    I had thought the tapping sound heard in part of the broadcast was typewriter or possibly teletype. But at 2:11:20 Art, the "senior telegrapher who has charge of the Western Union wires," catches a ball in the booth. This was how the game was sent to remote locations in the days before national broadcasts! In New York City people may have been crowded around a downtown business listening to an announcer, who would be reading the account of the game as if he was watching himself. I had thought it might have been after that era, but perhaps not.

    • @alpineinc1
      @alpineinc1  2 роки тому +1

      Nice catch! I think you are correct, that we are hearing telegraph machines transmitting data to outposts around the country. Apparently Western Union had exclusive telegraph rights for all MLB clubs from 1909 or so onward, but the practice would subside when teams began sending their announcers on the road starting in the 1940’s.

    I'm not old enough to remember before there was TV, when all you had was to sit by the radio. I used to frequently watch games on the tube, with the TV muted and the radio on for play-by-play/color. With Johnny Most (legendary Boston Celtics announcer) you'd often get two different games :P

    It's always seemed to me that radio and baseball went together like ham and eggs. Even when I attended a game -- Dodgers, Angels, Giants, Astros, Rangers, etc., I nearly always have taken a small radio. Once during a rain delay at the old Arlington Stadium, I drove to the old Six Flags Mall and bought a radio since I had forgotten mine at home. Some think you are nuts, but in decades past, thousands had radios. You could hear Vin Scully at Dodger Stadium and Red Barber at Ebbets Field and later Yankee Stadium simply by walking around especially where concessions were sold. .

    Wow, this is history...seven years after the Tigers and Tyson became the first to broadcast a full season. Tyson then broadcast the 1935 and 1936 World Series for Major League Baseball (he would have in 1934, but his Tigers were in the Series and Commissioner Landis didn't want any slant to the broadcast). Its striking to hear the quick pace of the game...I almost thought it was a re-creation broadcast at first.

    A couple of interesting things about this game. First the game lasted 2:30 . This game would have lasted well over 3 hours today. The Yankees pitcher threw a complete game despite giving up 7 runs and 14 hits. 3 runs were earned. Both teams made 4 errors. Very few strike outs or walks in the game. Each team had 45 plate appearances. Tigers won the pennant by 3 games
