By WILLIAM EWALD NEW TORK (VP 1 — Television and baseball met on a college field here on a sunny Wednesday afternoon in 1939. The meeting was a shy. fumbling affair. It la doubtful whether it could be classified as love at first sight. The principal parties in the matter were Princeton and Columbia, the home team. Also present were one NBC camera, which was stationed behind third base, and Bill Stern, an experienced sportscaster who approached the task with some trepidation. The date was May 17. The place, Raker Field. The station was W2XBS, an NBC project. •‘We were stationed on a hill overlooking a field,” recalls Stern. “The field was about 100 feet away and about 10 feet below us. It was the second game of a doubleheader. ■T didn’t have a monitor so I never knew at any time what the camera was shooting. Half the time. I was talking about things that weren’t even .within camera range.” They used two cameras when the first major league game was televised on Aug. 23. 1939. from Ebbets Field in Brooklyn with Cincinnati the visiting team. Again W2XRS did the honors, with Red Barber Alling the plays. Nowadays, the televising ,of baseball, games is considerably more complex. There may be three or four cameras on the field and a couple of others under the stands for interviewing and commercials. The cameramen are ’Wall fans themselves, since the trickiest part about televising basebail 1» trying to anticipate the plays. WPIX in Ned’ York is a prime example of a baseball - conscious 'TV station. This year's WPIX schedule calls for the casting of 77 Giant and 77 Yankee home games and 16 Yankee road games —the heaviest such assignment in TV. At the Polo Grounds, where the Giants play, WPIX stations four

! cameras on the field. Two are behind home plate one to cover tt)p infield and pitcher - catcher area, the other to follow batted balls to the outfield and scan the bullpen. Another camera is behind first base —it follows the ■ lead runner. The fourth is set up along the foul line in right field and is used for color shots of the crowd, the dugout areas and the catcher racing hack to the screen for pop-ups. There are four cameramen and one relief man. an assistant director who calls the camera shots, and a pair of announcers. Below the stands is the control booth. Jn it sit two video men who cheek constantly on picture quality, one audio man who checks the sound, a technical director who rides herd on the crew, and the director, who is the brains of the telecast. The director, assistant director and cameramen all are connected by ah inter - com system - over which instructions are bellowed. - The director never sees the actual ball game,' but he is the key man in getting it to the fans at home. He sits in front of a series of seven 4-hy-3 inches monitor screens—four of which show what the field cameras offer, two of which are used for commercials. and one for the names of ballplayers which are superimposed on the screen. The director must make snap decisions. Looking at his field monitors. 1. 2. 3 and 4, he will rattle off a series of commands:

"Standby. 8. Take 3, Standby, 8. Take 2- Take 1.” Somatimes, over the Intercom he will call for certain shots: ”8— Give me a tight shot of the Giant dugout." He will wait while camera 3 pans and order: "Take 3.” The toughest play to capture on television is the cut-off. according to Arthur Susskind Jr., sports supervisor of WPIX. "You’re never certain after a hit with mep on base whether say, the first baseman is going to,cut off the throw from the outfield or let it go through to the catcher," he says. • e • (Next: The future of baseball television.) —, ®> 20 Years Ago Today 0 1 June 7. 1986 was Sunday. —— ( - Modern Etiquette BY ROBERTA LEE • J . . ... — — i Q.
