Known voiceovers[edit]

During the Blockbuster Video era, Major League Baseball used an opening graphic that featured a voiceover from radio broadcasts of consequential games across the history of baseball. Each voiceover is listed in chronological order.

  • "Swung on, belted! It's a long one, deep into left center! Back goes Gionfriddo, back, back, back, back, back, back... HE MAKES A ONE-HANDED CATCH AGAINST THE BULLPEN! Whoa, oh, doctor!" - Red Barber, Brooklyn Dodgers at New York Yankees, October 5, 1947 (Al Gionfriddo's play on a ball batted by Joe DiMaggio)
  • "There's one. It is going, it is going, it is... GONE!" - Mel Allen, New York Yankees at Baltimore Orioles, September 20, 1961 (Roger Maris's 59th home run)
  • "The 1-0 delivery to Fisk, he swings... long drive, left field! If it stays fair, it's gone... HOME RUN! THE RED SOX WIN! And the series is tied 3 games apiece!" - Ned Martin, Cincinnati Reds at Boston Red Sox, October 21, 1975 (Carlton Fisk's series-tying home run)
  • "...Ryan the sign. Here's the windup, the 2-2 pitch... HE STRUCK HIM OUT SWINGING! INCREDIBLE! NO-HITTER NUMBER 7!" - Mark Holtz, Toronto Blue Jays at Texas Rangers, May 1, 1991 (Nolan Ryan's 7th no-hitter)
