  • Bill Werber and the First Televised Game
    Bill Werber and the first televised game ©DiamondsintheDusk.com By AL FEATHERSTON Bill Werber is a pretty obscure guy for a player Ed Barrow once called “the best player in the American League.” He was also the first basketball All-American at Duke University and became the last living teammate of Babe Ruth before his death at the age of 100 in 2009. But Werber should be recognized for another piece of history – he is the first player in Major League history to come to the plate in a televised game. “It was August 26, 1939 — I was lead- ing off for Cincinnati against the Dodg- ers,” he said in a 2008 interview. The game was tele- vised from Ebbets Field on station W2XBS (later to become WNBC-TV) as an experiment at the New York World’s Fair. Cincinnati Reds at Brooklyn Dodgers There were just 400 TV August 26, 1939 sets in the New York area at the time, but the television display at the Fair drew a large crowd. The inaugural telecast featured two cameras – one high above home plate and the other along the third base line. Dodger radio broadcaster Red Barber did the commentary. Werber led off against Brooklyn’s Luke Hamlin to become the first televised batter in baseball history. Werber didn’t recall the outcome of that first plate appearance, but he contributed a single and an RBI to the Reds’ 5-2 victory in that historic game. That was the first game of a doubleheader. The second game was also televised and Werber again led off for the Reds.

  • Bill Mckechnie's World Champion Reds by Robert P
    Bill McKechnie's World Champion Reds by Robert P. Domanski he eleven years from 1927 to 1937 were the worst in the annals of the TCincinnati Reds, a team which had already made history back in 1869 when it stepped upon the diamond as the nation's first professional baseball club. The Depression years were as ill-fortuned for the Reds as they were for the whole country. In this decade, the club never rose above the second division, and finished an ignominious last in five of eleven seasons. Even changes in personnel — new owners, new presidents, new general managers, new man- agers, new players — didn't help, though there were a few dim rays of hope. Under Manager Charlie Dressen the team moved from last place in 1934 to sixth in 1935. When they moved up to fifth in 1936 and acquired a promising young general manager, Warren C. Giles, expectations were high for the 1937 season, but to the disappointment of Cincinnati fans the Reds fell back into the basement. How those lowly Reds climbed from the doldrums of eighth place in the National League to heights attained by no other Cincinnati team before or since is an exciting story indeed.
