C'mon, MLBAM, You Can Do Better Than That
I just got word that MLBAM is producing a series of CDs with classic radio calls, which is like, way cool, but check these losers they picked for the Dodgers:
- A 1949 World Series Game 7 (Retrosheet) in which the Yankees defeat the Dodgers.
- A 5-2 loss to the Giants on August 1, 1989 that drove the Dodgers further into the cellar (13.5 games behind the Giants, with a 77-83 fourth-place finish).
- A 2-1 loss to the Giants on September 27, 1969.
- Game 6 of the 1978 World Series (Retrosheet) — which the Dodgers also lost.
- Game 5 of the 1959 World Series (Retrosheet) — the only Dodger loss in the whole postseason that year.
Update: Looks like I missed out on their site navigation, but the "featured products" were still lousy. But hey, they have Jon's favorite game available...
Comments:
Years ago I bought the nolan Ryan rcord-setting strikeout game and was dismayed to see not a single break - watch of the three CDS is ONE TRACK. Imagine mashing these in your i-Pod as half innings? It would be awesome, but that might take ten seconds of paying an engineer...

Correction. The Dodgers had TWO losses in the 1959 World Series: Game 5, and Game 1, which the Sox won 11-0.
