The historic 1938 match race between west coast star, Seabiscuit, and Triple Crown winner, War Admiral. This race came to be know as the "Race of the Century," and kept Americans from coast to coast glued to their radios. When it was time to call the race for NBC radio, the legendary Clem McCarthy could not fight his way through the crowd to get back to the announcer's booth. He was forced to call the race from the finish line.
