•Baseball series debuts: FSN looks back on the glory years of baseball in the 1930s, 40s and 50s — before the sport was hurt the free agency merry-go-round and the scandal — with a 13-part series, "Baseball's Golden Age,” which debuts at 8 p.m. Sunday on FSN Southwest. The series takes advantage of the vast archives of Steven Stern, who compiled a reserve of home movies taken by players and others while producing the "When It Was A Game” trilogy of the 1990s. Actor Anthony LaPaglia provides the narration. The pilot looks at the rivalry between Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams.
