This is a recording of the WGN broadcast of the Cubs 9-2 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on August 19, 1989. It is a vintage Greg Maddux performance and features home runs by Ryne Sandberg and Andre Dawson.
www.baseball-reference.com/box...
The video has been slightly edited to remove the bulk of the commercials - I only left one between each of the inning breaks and I tried to pick ones that were mildly entertaining, either in content or context. It includes the pregame and postgame shows.

This was the first year I watched baseball and as an optimistic 11 year old I thought the Cubs were going to be this good every year. It only took another 27 years.

These 80's and 90's Cubs games bring back fond memories of them on WGN at my grandparent's house. Games like this and many others is what made pro baseball special.

I'm not even a Cubs fan, but a hated Reds fan. But I loved this season. Where I lived, our only options for baseball on TV were the Braves and Cubs, and I watched every game I could - mostly at my grandparents' house. And now, all these years later, I remember this Cubs team so fondly.

As long as he had a designated driver after the game and was able to perform his duties as an announcer, why shouldn't he have been able to enjoy a few Budweisers at the game? He wasn't operating machinery. And besides, it was a free country back the. I'll take a drunk Harry Caray over any one of the sober social justice jerk-offs from ESPN.

Too bad u took out all those nostalgia commercials - really BAD idea - but WORSE idea to put the games score in the title - entirely ruins the possible drama one could experience in watching/enjoying the game. I knew the game was over when Sandberg hit the home run 1:52:15 - but theres 45 more minutes of game still to go.
