7:00pm Dodgers host the Yankees

Sorry, couldn't have been. This was way before interleague play was adopted by Major League Baseball.

At the time, KTLA was the Angel station. I'm not sure if it was still owned by Gene Autry at that time, who also owned the Angels.

You did get the announcers right, though.

The Dodgers, from the time they moved from Brooklyn in 1958 to the early 90s were on KTTV-11.

Yes - that had to have been an Angels game. BTW - according to Wikipedia, Autry still owned KTLA - he sold it in 83 to investors who sold it to the current owners (Tribune) two years later in 1985.

You're right...that should have read Angels hosting Yankees...had a braincramp when I was typing and completely forgot the LA area had 2 teams :D

1:00 Honeymooners Trip

Ralph and Norton drop acid? ::)

No, this was shorthand for what was initially syndicated as The Honeymooners' Trip to Europe, the 1966-67 color shows that were later part of The Color Honeymooners package that aired for a few years in the 2000's on the AmericanLife channel. WNEW Channel 5 in New York ran it for a time in 1977, but for a myriad of reasons this syndicated package (by Metromedia Producers Corporation, from my understanding) flopped tremendously.

Also, KTLA was indeed owned by Autry at the time, and it would have been Angels/Yankees. Besides, notice which announcing name was missing from that listing - Vin Scully. Who was and still is the Voice of the Dodgers.

The Wikipedia article (usual disclaimers apply :D) say that the station was sold in 1986 to its GM and an outside investor. For the record, the station is currently owned by the same company that owns KIKU-TV in Honolulu and multicasts various ethnic programming as follows:

18.1 LA18
18.2 United Television Broafvasting/NHK World (Japanese)
18.3 MBC-D (Korean)
