156 Harold Arlin

Eds makes another start and throws Sean a slider with the story of the worlds first radio announcer Harold Wampler Arlin. From humble beginnings, the son of a farmer became an engineer at the Westinghouse company and by being at the right place at the right time he in turn became responsible in part for the birth of an entirely new medium and industry. Harold Arlin called the very first baseball radio broadcast and then many years returned to the booth in a full circle moment that truly illustrated the beauty of the game.
