kevin millar is a trainwreck

live look-in to royals vs. rangers:

rangers booth announcer goes "location is all about pitching"

"Intentional Talk" is the worst program on any cable network right now and possibly ever. It makes me very angry watching these two clowns.

Al Michaels and Bob Costas are doing the Mets vs. Giants game tonight at 7PM.

The first three innings will be fairly basic, with Costas calling the first inning and a half and Michaels the next inning and a half. They'll speak directly to fans of both teams by switching to SportsNet New York's booth for the fourth and fifth innings before taking over ComCast SportsNet Bay Area's broadcast for the sixth and seventh innings (Krukow and Kuiper will handle MLB Network duties during that span). Then it's back to the MLB Network telecast for both Michaels and Costas.

anyone listening?

it has been a pretty cool broadcast.

MLB Network was just been added to Dish Network for the stretch run, now they have around 75 million people on board:

Everytime I see the "GOT HEEM!" commercial I want to kill myself.

Many gems:

You hand-manage the game by managing who is on the on deck circle.

When he gets hot, you can literally jump on his back and he can carry you.

This is where Shelby Miller needs to do his best to make the pitch he needs to make.

I would put it on again. - Harold Reynolds, on BJ Upton bunting with two strikes and a man on first.

Hope someone assembles a clip of irritated/uncomfortable position players attempting to bunt -- between-pitch body language, nervous/pitiful stabs at pitches, etc.

the “hall of game connections” trailers on MLB.TV have got. to. go.

I promise you it can’t possibly be as bad as BT Sport ads. They’re even worse this year!

this is probably the right thread for this unheimlich conception, slouching towards bethlehem to be born

For the inaugural event, the Celebrity Softball Game during All-Star Week, the virtual ballpark will feature a live stream of the game on the virtual ballpark's video board

so you can go to a virtual ballpark to watch a game unfold on a little two-dimensional screen beyond the virtual outfield

For the MLB virtual ballpark, that could mean fans talking to each other, walking through the stadium together, meeting in the concourse

have they thought this part through
