Sports don't seem to generate quite the fervor around here as they did back where I'm from - which is OK, since I wasn't as rabid as the rest, though I'm having a new appreciation for my father's habits as I grow older.

In any case..

First Live broadcast of a Major League Baseball game took place when, where (field/city), who (teams), and what pioneering radio station (call sign and a bonus for the frequency)?

I too love baseball and with spring training in full swing I can't wait until the first TV broadcasts for this coming season. Anyway I will start the reply here with some information. The first actual live radio broadcast of baseball happened on August 5th, 1921. I have the rest of the data too, but I thought I would give someone else a chance to chime in here.

The stadium no longer exists. It was torn down around 1970. My father watched many games there, but I never knew it.

Home plate is inside of a University dormitory now - I almost stopped to see it, and a section of the outfield wall, but my then 8 week old had other plans.

The stadium was located in Oakland.

Hummmm, here is the information I have, although my sources say it wasn't in Oakland.

The first baseball radio broadcast was on August 5, 1921. The game was broadcast by KDKA 1020 AM of Pittsburgh, and the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Philadelphia Phillies, 8-5. It was broadcast by Harold Arlin, KDKA's announcer.

The field was Forbes Field, which was located in the Pittsburgh neighborhood of Oakland (threw you off, didn't I?).

Home plate is now in a dormitory at the University of Pittsburgh (down the street is Carnegie Mellon University)

One more radio related fact about Oakland I just stumbled upon - WQED, the first community sponsored television station in the US, filmed Mr.Rogers' Neighborhood in Oakland.
