Steiner left the Yankees after the following season, his last game being the infamous Game 7 of the 2004 American League Championship Series in which the Red Sox completed its historic series victory over its rivals after trailing 3 games to 0. He was originally slated to move to the YES Network as a studio host, but after Ross Porter, longtime radio voice of the Los Angeles Dodgers was let go by the team, Steiner was hired to take his place.

After four years covering the 2005 through 2008 seasons, the Dodgers’ unique broadcasting arrangement had Steiner teamed with analyst Rick Monday and working play-by-play on the radio during all home and intra-divisional road games. Steiner’s duties during these games would start with the fourth inning and cover the remainder of the game, as the first three innings were a radio/television simulcast voiced by Vin Scully.

Steiner handled television play-by-play on all other games with analyst Steve Lyons, primarily road contests east of the Rocky Mountains. For the 2009 season, the Dodgers had Steiner and Monday as their radio team for all 162 games, though the Scully simulcast of the first three innings would remain. Starting in 2014, Steiner was paired with Orel Hershiser on the television broadcast for all games Scully did not call, and broadcast on the radio with Monday the other games.

Charley Steiner on Bradley banishing of PJS reporter: ‘I’m dumbfounded, saddened’

PEORIA — Charley Steiner was on the phone at 8:30 a.m. Arizona time Saturday. And for a while before that.

That isn’t the usual Saturday-morning spring-training scenario for Steiner, the radio voice of baseball’s Los Angeles Dodgers and perhaps the most illustrious communications graduate of Bradley University.

Then again, Bradley athletics officials rarely prohibit reporters from talking to their men’s basketball players and coaches. But that’s what happened Friday to Journal Star reporter Dave Reynolds.

The banning, the result of stories the BU braintrust found unfavorable, was rescinded Saturday afternoon. But it didn’t sit well with Steiner. Or a lot of his associates, apparently.

“The phone hasn’t stopped for the last hour and a half,” said Steiner, whose name graces Bradley’s School of Sports Communication.
