From southern Maine, I can pick up WGN in Chicago. I was listening to the end of the Cleveland game last night on the radio. If you're ever out at night, see what other stations you can find. And hey, if you can pick up WTIC, I'm sure you could get WFAN also.<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure how strong the signal is in long distances, but if you're looking for an MFY station, try 1270.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14809080115678512743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-69440070069030753132007-09-26T07:14:00.000-07:002007-09-26T07:14:00.000-07:00Great night of baseball (would have been perfect i...Great night of baseball (would have been perfect if Seattle had beaten the Indians)! It must have been frustrating to lose the internet connection, but listening to a game on the radio can be really exciting and memorable. (I have already recounted my two favorite radio games, and it is interesting that I remember them more clearly than many games I saw at Fenway or on TV.)<BR/><BR/>Let's win tonight, let Cleveland lose two, and, of course, let the MFY lose the next five.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15720293202890878993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-50990769417929792202007-09-26T07:09:00.000-07:002007-09-26T07:09:00.000-07:00Initially, I wasn't even sure Navarro had hit a HR...Initially, I wasn't even sure Navarro had hit a HR. Amid the static and Sterling's ultra low-key delivery of the dong, I couldn't tell what had happen. Then he went into his call/wrapup and I knew what had happened.<BR/><BR/>In his post mortem, Sterling said "I think it was a 2-0 pitch" -- it happened 45 seconds ago, you are the pbp guy, you don't know the count?!?!<BR/><BR/>He had done the same thing when talking about the Rays earlier rally. Someone had a hit on what Sterling <I>guessed</I> was a full count. <BR/><BR/>Doesn't he keep a scorecard? Someone half-listening to the game might not recall the count. Not the guy actually broadcasting the game for thousands of listeners.
