Brooklyn Dodgers @ Chicago Cubs - June 4, 1957 - Pt2

Personally ,this is a holy grail find.

I was looking for games from the 1950's that had a sense of ambience, and found this.

Not an awful lot happens on this Tuesday night game from June 4th, 1957 but the ambience, sound and most of all, commentary from Vin Scully, Jerry Doggett, Al Helfer and Tex Rickards is top shelf.


Incredible mood, there is no dramatic steals or series‑clinching tension in this game just a great atmosphere.


I’ve split it into two parts, applied a gentle EQ roll‑off to tame the ultra–high frequencies while preserving everything I love about the sound of this.


as for the game itself -


Game Summary

  • Final Score: Dodgers 7, Cubs 5 

  • Winning Pitcher: Sandy Koufax (in relief)

  • Save: Clem Labine

  • Scoring Highlights:

    • Dodgers: Roy Campanella crushed a 2‑run double off the scoreboard in the 1st inning; Duke Snider homered in the 3rd; Gil Hodges in the 5th.

    • Cubs: Randy Jackson Speake homered in the 6th; Ernie Banks pulled one in the 8th.

  • Noteworthy: Joe Pignatano made his MLB debut after Campanella was plunked in the 3rd inning; the game's ambient energy is captured in full on the original WOKO‑preserved radio broadcast


Broadcast Team -


Vin Scully (opened the broadcast, first 3 innings + middle-inning shifts)


Jerry Doggett (handled most of the mid- & late innings)


Al Helfer (between innings & post‑game summary)


Tex Rickards (public-address announcer at Ebbets)
