We’re probably among the few here who remember Dizzy Dean and the weekend CBS-TV broadcasts of Major League Baseball.

Dizzy and Pee Wee. Great fun for this young boy at the time.

Like the time the Yankees brought in reliever Ryne Duren . . .as he walked to the mound from the bullpen, Dizzy looked at the NY roster and announced, with hesitation:

The new Yankee pitcher will be . . . Ron Noren

My parents had conniptions, we all loved Dizzy’s broadcasts

Drove english teachers nuts when he’d say, “He slud into second”

Me and my dad liked him so much we always bought Ole Diz Charcoal. “Pardners, you’ll like it”

Game of the Week! Dizzy Dean and Pee Wee Reese. Seems it always was either a Dordger or Yankee game.
