Major League Baseball's first televised game occurred at Ebbets Field, Brooklyn on August 26, 1939. The double-header between the Brooklyn Dodgers and the Cincinnati Reds was broadcast to about five hundred homes. Dodgers announcer Red Barber did the play by play. Two cameras were used to view the game, one from behind home plate and the other focused on Barber.
