Field of Dreams Game on WFAN

[Steve Green NEPA]

I'm wondering about the reaction to WFAN's crystal stream of the game among those here.
I tried to watch it free, but Tofu or (Mofo?) wanted me to sign in with checkboxes and things like asking me to join Antifa, blood type, or the last 9 digits of my SS number.
(I kid, of course. I never got through all that sign-in grief, though.)
WFAN 660 comes in pretty listenable here at night, but the game started at 6PM in Iowa and 7PM here -- still daylight. Daytime listening here is miserable with all the 'QRM' (man-made noise, static and racket)
During the time I listened on the WFAN stream, I thought the Sterling-Waldman radio PBP was just fine.

(Disclosure : I never could figure the resistance / contempt by some -- from the BEGINNING -- of many Sterling-Waldman listeners. The two broadcasters {to me} have been very listenable for me, a Mets fan :- ] And last night Sterling was in a strange place, outside his pennant porch cliche haven. The WFAN stream broadcast was very enjoyable. How about you folks' thoughts ?)

Were John and Suzyn in Iowa, or broadcasting from an empty Yankee Stadium? AFAIK, MLB still has not permitted its clubs to allow visiting radio or TV crews inside their ballparks. Many have moaned about that policy quite loudly on-air over the course of this season. But this was a neutral site -- so were both the NY and Chicago crews allowed in, along with Joe Buck and company?

I can only imagine how much Suzyn was bloviating during the broadcast last night.

@CTListener: MLB is not limiting radio broadcasters' travel. The Cardinals radio crew has been in person in San Francisco, Cincinnati, and other locales. I know some other clubs have had their radio broadcasters come to St. Louis as well.

I'm not sure if the Yankees/WFAN are letting Suzyn and John travel.

The Yankees duo has been working from Yankee Stadium all year, I'm pretty sure. Sterling is almost 80 years old and Waldman is a cancer survivor, so both probably should be staying put. The Red Sox also have kept Joe Castiglione and his various partners at Fenway Park. Joe often gripes about the video feed he is forced to work with, how it doesn't show all the action he wants to describe.

I DID hear Sterling, many times, say things like 'the two-oh pitch', or 'the one-oh' AFTER the ball was hit, as if there were some sort of delay in effect.
