Whakakiia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I haere atu a Bob Prince i te ngahuru o te tau 1976, me Keith Jackson, Howard Cosell, me te kaitohutohu manuhiri a Reggie Jackson e karanga ana i taua tau
Ko te American League Championship Series. (Warner Wolf, Al Michaels me te kaitohutohu manuhiri Tom Seaver i mahi i te NLCS.) I runga i te kaupapa o tana whakakorenga mai i ABC, i kii a Bob Prince "I kino ahau ki a Houston, a kaore a ABC i tuku i ahau kia Bob Prince". I tino whakahe a MLB komihana Bowie Kuhn ki te tono a ABC ki a Howard Cosell na nga korero a Cosell i nga tau kua taha ake nei mo te mauiui o te petipeti. Engari ko Roone Arledge te kaari toa i te kirimana i hainatia e ia ki te Major League Baseball i hoatu ki a ABC te korero whakamutunga mo nga kaikorero. Na ka mahi a Cosell i te ALCS 1976 a ka noho hei mema o te "Monday Night Baseball" i te wa e whai ake nei.
