In listening to both Barber and Desmond back then I grew very fond of Desmond and really liked his play by play narrative. I was only 11 or 12 years old at the time and had no knowledge of Desmond's drinking problem.

I realize that Barber was supposedly the most popular of the two but i still would rather hear Desmond's voice. There was nothing better in those days than listening to play by play on the radio.

When they traded Eddie Miksis to the Cubs in '51 in an eight player deal I sort of soured on baseball in general and the Dodgers in particular.
