950 re-airing Phillies clincher

Just heard that ESPN950 is replaying the phillies game thursday night if you're looking for a feel-good listen on the way home.
 
I'm assuming this would have to be the ESPN Radio call, not the WPHT call.

Did WPEN air the game live? If not, it's technically not re-airing. This particular call was not heard in Philadelphia.

I don't like Joe Morgan, but Jon Miller does an excellent job, and is better on the radio than he is on TV.
 
WPEN apparently did run the ESPN play by play live (as did affiliates of the Phillies network not permitted to run the Phillies feed) but how many Phillies fans would have chosen that over hearing Harry Kalas & crew call the final game?

By the way, not sure if its scripted or just habit but throughout the World Series the Phillies announcers used the "let's pause for station identification along the Phillies radio network" tag even though they were not on the network but only on 1210.
