Baseball was a biggie back then, but we need to remember that camersa were not mobile like now, it would have been a logistical nightmare to try and telecast a game, one camera ultrawide shot for everything. if I remember right, WGN in chicago was the first to telecast ball games Cubs and Sox back in the early 50s with the fameous and now industry standard three camera shot, And yes trhey were a key station in the mid-west and a major DuMont network.
