Best Answer

When there were no televisions, people either went to the games or listened to them on the radio. There was no other way to watch the games than to be there. There were photographs in newspapers, however.

The radios in those days were monsters in terms of size. They used vacuum tubes since transistors were not invented yet, and they used expensive banks of batteries to get the voltages needed for the tubes. Newer tube radios were able to use line voltage. Then as transistors came along, the size of radios began to dramatically decline and even become portable.
