MLB At Bat for iPhone

woohoo astros!

I have both T-Mobile Dash and iPhone (unlocked), I compared these options for my windows mobile and decided to use my SlingBox with my DTV sports subscription over paying extra for game day audio.

I would make iPhone every day phone once sling player and push emails are available.

Another 'Stros fan! woot
although at the end of the article you said "Go 'Stos!"

are yes, they have been suckin it lately...they always seems to go in these horrible slumps every damn year....I have a love/hate relationship =)

I'll buy this in a heartbeat for the video highlights. But right now I'm using http://sportstap.mobi

Sure, it's a web app -- but you have to be connected to get the current game score anyways. It covers most major sports with a nice, clean interface.

This would be great... if I wasn't a Mariners fan. Good god! I can't bear to listen or watch this season. I might pay $4.99 to not get updates!

I'm also excited to get this app!! Now I can earn more brownie points with the wife by going out shopping while the game is on. ;^) And the $4.99 is reasonable. Now it is time for the NFL to step up.

Woo Hoo!

Another Houston Astros man/fan.

I'm a die-hard baseball fan. But I'd just as soon pirate this thing than put another cent into Bud $elig's dirty pockets.

Once a used-car salesman, always a used-car salesman.

This is awesome and it's about time. MLB websites are an overloaded jumble of garbage and their downloadable schedule requires one to jump through hoops to get it on iCal. I downloaded a Lakers schedule in one click and drag but an Angels schedule is impossible to get on my iPhone and the instructions require about ten steps to get it there. I said screw it.

$4.99 is a reasonable enough price and in fact it's actually about three dollars less than I paid for a beer at the game last night.

I'll wait and see what the app actually looks like before I get to happy but it's good that they're trying.

This is great! I had hoped that MLB.com would release this for free, but I knew that was unlikely. So is the $4.99 price for the rest of the season mean that we will have to pay again for subsequent seasons? That seems to be MLB.com's modus operandi, but I wonder how that would be implemented. Regardless, having live video and Gameday service (i.e. the real-time box score feature) would indeed make it a killer app, although I doubt they will extend it to Gameday Audio at this price. Rather, they may set up a way to access the existing Gameday Audio and perhaps MLB.TV subscriptions through the app or through Safari.

Go Stros! Get back on track!
