Our favorite weekly baseball program during the decade of the 1980’s was This Week In Baseball with NY Yankee’s legendary announcer Mel Allen as the host….for there is no more recognizable voice to ever call an MLB game than Mel….as he could make you feel like you were right smack dab in the middle of the crowd at the stadium in the way he painted a verbal picture of what was happening on the field.
This video provides proof in the pudding of Allen’s creative genius behind the mike….as he introduces the week’s program with an Old McDonald’s Got A Farm overview…..even with the E I E I O ‘s.
