Fans used to wear suits and a fedora to games. There wasn’t a craft beer garden…you had “a beer”. There were actual pennant races before divisions and wildcards. World Series games were played during the day. Change occurred.
As much as any constant, we had baseball on the radio. But that armor has recently been pierced. The Oakland A’s have nixed local radio broadcasts. They’ve assessed their market and decided to stream games over an app. All games will still be available and the radio crew well known to Oakland fans will be calling the game…just digitally now.
