On September 26, 1981, the scheduled Major League Baseball "Game of the Week" between the Detroit Tigers and Milwaukee Brewers had ended, and the NBC affiliate in Buffalo, New York, WGR-TV (now WGRZ), picked up the network's backup game, a Houston Astros–Los Angeles Dodgers contest in which Nolan Ryan was pitching his lone National League no-hitter. However, the coverage suddenly ended just as the ninth inning started, when the local station cut away to regular programming. WGR-TV felt duty-bound to present a naval training film--"Life Aboard an Aircraft Carrier". ("Baseball Hall of Shame 2" (1986), by Nash and Zullo; pp. 108–09)
