Notice that "Midwestern Hayride" was also on the ABC-TV Network at a summer replacement during this time in addition to their regular show on the WLW stations earlier in the evening.

I wondered what the story was on that... :)
 
Interesting that the CBS Game of the Week (Yanlees vs. Red Sox) was seen in Columbus but wasn't carried in either Cincinatti or Dayton, while the regional telecast of the Reds/Pirates game was being carried on stations in all three cities covered in this edition of TV Guide.

Was there a policy back then of blacking out the national network game within so many miles of a major league market's stadium (Dayton's within about 50-55 miles of Cincinatti), so it wouldn't hurt either viewership or attendance of the regional team's game?

LOL! Even back then. ;D

Doesn't it seem that for the past 4-5 weeks, almost every MLB game on ESPN and TBS
has involved NYY or BOS (if not NYY/BOS)?

There was such a policy at that time and for the belief that showing such games would affect the attendance of the home teams in those cities. As a result, none of the CBS or NBC games of the week were shown in major league cities. That also prevented people here and in other such cities from hearing announcers such as: Dizzy Dean, Buddy Blattner, Pee Wee Reese, Leo Durocher, Bob Wolfe, Joe Garagiola and others at least during the regular season. This policy changed for the 1965 Season when ABC-TV started doing the Game of the Week. It was shown in major league cities as well as the rest of the country.

In '58 the Red Sox finished in 3rd place, 13 games behind the Yankees. The White Sox finished in 2nd. They were 10 games out. The Yankees best the Braves in the World Series.
