And for a while Mets games as well. Your choice was Harry Carey, Ralph Kiner or the Braves guys.

 

My cable system never had WOR.  At the time I was just as mad b/c WOR would show wrestling.

The summer of 1989... I was 15.  Too old to "go out and play", too young to drive around all day. My friends with licenses either had no car yet or we didn't have gas money.  So I watched the Cubs a lot during that season especially.  When they won the division I felt like a fan.

any mlb.tv users having trouble starting the stream in a browser? I get this "There was a problem. Please try again." banner at the top in a couple different browsers.

edit: I can get the radio-only feed working, just not the video feed.

edit 2: it's just the Bally feed that doesn't work. PIT video is fine. so probably not just me.

I got the Pittsburgh TV feed just fine, but I get that same error trying to load the Detroit TV feed.

yep, just figured that out myself. glad it's not just me, though.

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

also broken in the MLB app. so I assume there's no particular point to hauling my west-coast ass out of bed to try the Roku.

[Dave Christian]

Baez and Torkelson with back to back K'S.

It's going to be another one of those days!

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

Bally feed is working on mlb.tv now.

[Jim Cowan]

It's another Ibanez-in-right-field game.

[Hongbit]

Too bad the official scorer can’t charge those two runs to AJ for lineup decisions

it's the all-out-of-position outfield.

Another ump making a case to be replaced by robots today...

[Hongbit]

There was a day off Monday.  No reason for Riley to not be out there today.

[romad1]

Dirks and Dan are both not happy with the fluctuating K zone from this umpire. 

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

Miguel is now trending on twitter for that race with Rich Hill to first base.

Was it better than the pierogi race?

[Hongbit]

Genius call AJ.  Way to be the smartest guy in the room.

Yes, the best hitter on the team is not starting against a lefthander.  So that he will never learn to hit them.  I don't mind platooning the mediocre guys but doing it with Greene is stupid.

[kdog]

Greene sitting is dumb. But Hill is enough of a change from a regular pitcher that the Tigers were already going to be screwed up.

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

Hinch tossed from the game.

[theroundsquare]

Did AJ just get run?

EDIT: Sorry, watching with no sound

This is one of those facacta games

[Jim Cowan]

87 pitches for Eduardo already, after 2 out in the 5th.

[Jim Cowan]

OK, score at least one run this inning or I'm going outside to pull weeds.
