I'm interested in finding out how many do exist. The 1 I know of is the partial 1939 game vs Cleveland from 9-21-1939 that's part of the WJSV Complete Broadcast Day.
Can never find em on mp3 CD or file sharing apps.

Hello Tim, welcome aboard. Way back in 1993, before the advent of this thing called the Internet, there was an outfit called "Mailbox Baseball" (780 Broadway, Hornwood, NY 10594) that offered a number of Senators games on cassette tape. I had their catalog at one time but can't find it at the moment. They offered a number of expansion Senators games from 1962-1971, including that final, infamous game on Sept. 30, 1971. Don't know if they're still in business but you might give it a shot. My AOL search engine (which I'm less than thrilled with) didn't come up with what I was looking for.
BTW-tapes were $ 14.95/game, at least in 1993.

Well Tim, I had the opportunity to do a little surfing today and managed to find two places where they have a couple of Senators games on audio tape.
The first link has two games from the 1961 season, the second has games from 1961, 1969 (Ted Williams managerial debut, a loss to the Yankees) and 1971 (the Senators last game and ANOTHER loss to the Yankees :ughh ).
Please note: I do not represent these advertisers, I know nothing about them, other than what is offered at the website and am not selling or shilling anything-links are posted for information only.

There are plenty on audio tape or CD now. There is a company called Danrick Enterprises that had a huge library of baseball games. They sold their collection to major league baseball and can be bought there. Unfortunately,they didn't include them all,like the 2 1969 Pilots games. Luckily,I bought those from Danrick years ago.
Put baseball games on tape in your search engine to find it. I also just bought the 1969 opener,Aug. 12,1961 and sept. 30,1971 on ebay for $7.99 each,including free shipping!

Hey, thanks a lot for mentioning me. I own Danrick Enterprises baseball audio cassettes and after a respite of 6 years, the business, under the control of MLB is once again mine. I refuse to spam here in any way whatsoever so I'll put it this way: for anyone seeking old Senator games or for that matter all games from my collection, simply send an email to danrickent@mindspring.com and I'll give you all the info you seek. Enough said and I see the 2008 season has begun. "Holy Cow" as the beloved Harry Caray used to say.
