For the 1991 postseason, CBS announced that they would be using up to 11 cameras in the League Championship Series and 14 for the World Series. According to producer Ric LaCivita, CBS' production division in its entirety had been impacted by a recession. So they had to do a telecast with less.

According to director Bob Fishman, the $250,000 camera (which was capable of capturing 90 frames per second) and tape machine that created the shots were a luxury item. Therefore, Game 1 of the American League Championship Series would mark the first time that they would be using it on baseball all year. It during the 1991 World Series that CBS unveiled Supervision, which was device that that used animation to show the flight and speed of a pitch.
