NBC MLB Monday Night Question

O

oldvnewschool

What was the official title of NBC's Monday MLB Telecast between 1972 and 1975?

I believe it was either called Monday Night Baseball or Monday Night Game.
 
I believe NBC used MLB GAME OF THE WEEK as their branding. IIRC ABC had MONDAY NIGHT BASEBALL for their coverage during the 70's and 80's. Hope that helps!
 
..."Game of the Week" was NBC's Saturday afternoon branding. Never saw it applied to a weeknight game...
 
Brooks and Marsh mention the network used NBC Major League Baseball as its 'official' title for Monday night games, although in their 'long running series' appendix, they list 'Monday Night Baseball' running a combined 18 (baseball) seasons from '72 to '89, combining NBC's games with ABC's(even the last year of 'Thursday Night Baseball' on ABC).
