The Red Sox & White Sox on TV in Louisville on a Sunday--odd.
 
The game was on NBC (Bob Wolff doing play-
by-play and Joe Garagiola doing color); both it
and CBS had Saturday and Sunday baseball at
the time. The Reds weren't on television that
day; WLW-T and WLEX would have carried their
game and it would not have been seen in Louisville
(itself an oddity). The Cubs-Phillies game on Ch. 11
was on CBS (Dizzy Dean and Pee Wee Reese).

The day before, the following games were available
in Kentucky:

Giants-Reds on Chs. 5 and 18
Orioles-Yankees on Ch. 11 (CBS)
Tigers-Twins on Ch. 3 (NBC)

The Saturday games I remember--the Sunday ones I don't. Thanks!
 
This is the Bob Wolff who did the Don Larsen perfect game on radio in the 1956 World Series and the 1958 NFL Title Game (Colts & Giants) on radio. In 1964, NBC-TV did a game of the week on Sundays. Wolff is still heard on a New York City area cable channel.

Bob "Anotherrrr Worrrrrllld" Wolff did baseball?

To extend on what 'Cincinnati Kid' wrote, the Another World announcer was Bill Wolff. I don't know if he and Bob Wolff were related, however,
