Random Baseball Musings

meh. i go in on it with 4 other people so it's cheap anyway. that way i can watch other games when i feel like it. i'd say ones with divisional/wild card race implications but we won't have to worry about those things.

Now let's have the next 3 pages be people thinking they can stream games in-market and getting indignant when they realize they can't, (falsely)talking about how MLB is throwing money away.

I understand we'll never be able to stream in market games, but it sure would be nice if this feature allowed me to stream games on freakin Saturdays. It pisses me off every time i get assed out of saturday baseball because fox is showing the yankees vs the mariners or some other bland BS.

Weren't the Saturday blackouts fixed? I am in a weird zone where I am blacked out of the Cubs on MLBTV, but I'm not blacked out on Extra Innings, so I get EI. On EI the Saturday blackouts stopped at least a year ago, if not 2 years ago.

[Guest]

I was using mlb.tv last year. Pretty certain the saturday blackouts were still in effect, i remember it screwing me over a few times. I think once the feature game ends, the blackouts arent in effect anymore, though.

[Andy]

Saturday blackouts ended in 2014. The only games blacked out on Saturdays are the Fox games airing in market. Other Fox games aren't.

Fun fact: Barry Bonds had more career WAR by the time of his second All-Star appearance than Jim Rice had throughout his entire career.

Yeah, but was he more feared in the 80's than Jim Rice was?

I really hope you're not making light of his appearance because he's got cerebral palsy.

im glad you said that before i could post

well [expletive]

 

i honestly just thought it was a terrible picture of the dude

[Andy]

I'd never heard of this guy before he was hired, but getting to that height in an on-air career with CP is [expletive] impressive, so good for him

[Backtobanks]

Very good broadcaster.

Why would Hawk only want to do road games? He really wants to get out of the house?

He lives in South Bend and apparently hates commuting back and forth between there and Chicago. I know there's an airport in South Bend, but it only goes to, like, 10 other airports in the US. Go [expletive] figure.
