Bob Costas Narrates AudioGO's BASEBALL FOREVER

Bob Costas Narrates AudioGO's BASEBALL FOREVER

Narrated by acclaimed sports journalist and baseball fan Bob Costas, BASEBALL FOREVER!: 50 YEARS OF CLASSIC RADIO PLAY-BY-PLAY HIGHLIGHTS contains historical moments from the largest private collection of baseball broadcasts as compiled by amateur collector-cum-archivist extraordinaire, John Miley. From Bill Mazeroski's homer and the Shot Heard 'Round the World to amazing feats, like Carl Hubbell striking out Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Jimmy Foxx, Al Simmons, and Joe Cronin-in order-at the 1934 All-Star Game. BASEBALL FOREVER! includes numerous clips that are only now available for the first time since their original transmission during the Golden Age of radio.

"The John Miley collection is one-of-a-kind," Costas said. "I met John in the 1970s early in my broadcasting career, and we have been friends ever since. I'm very pleased to have the chance to narrate this unique program. It's a treasure trove of memories for baseball fans and those interested in the history of broadcasting."

Bestselling author Jason Turbow (The Baseball Codes) mined the archive with Miley himself, taking us to some of baseball's greatest settings-Yankee Stadium, Ebbetts Field, Fenway Park-to hear colorful commentary from the game's legendary broadcasters, like Mel Allen, Red Barber, Harry Caray, and Vin Scully. Miley and Turbow have carefully selected an abundance of highlights for BASEBALL FOREVER!. Perfect for baseball enthusiasts of all ages, this collection is an instant classic, sure to inform, entertain, and appeal to anybody nostalgic for the favored sport's storied history.

"Jason Turbow has done a stellar job stringing together the best moments of the golden age of baseball broadcasting into an audio program that would convey the breadth of Miley's amazing collection," said AudioGO Senior Editor Thomas Dobrowolski who commissioned the program. "We couldn't be more fortunate to have a living legend and true fan of the game like Bob Costas on board to narrate this program."
