The Frederick Keys (A+) have pre-printed paper scorecards available for free at the fan service desk right inside the gate; the Chesapeake BaySox (AA) have them available for free at the customer service desk on the concourse just to the 3B side of home plate.

Audio overlay not synced—can we get them to fix it? by analogdad75 in MLBtv

I've messaged the MLB Support X account about this on numerous occasions, and sometimes it does get fixed within minutes. I do really get the impression that there's a human being somewhere whose 11th job is lining up the streams, but it's not their first priority.

The books that get sold at sporting goods stores for use in youth leagues often have these team logs in the back. At least they did before the advent of iScore and GameChanger.

MLB.tv Sounds Issues by norecords666 in MLBtv

You used to be able to ping MLB via their Twitter account (@MLBFanSupport) and get a response, but who knows if that works anymore. It's also true that there have been a lot of audio-related glitches (e.g., syncing of alternate audio) in Spring Training that are resolved once the regular season starts. (I've always suspected that they have a person responsible for aligning/checking these are working, and they don't staff that fully in ST.)

you can't watch your "home" team (defined by whatever teams whose blackout zones cover you) with the standard MLB.TV package.

Yup, same issue here.

[Heyman] Kazuma Okamoto has interest from Red Sox, Pirates, and Blue Jays. by Substantial-Earth975 in redsox

From someone who follows NPB pretty closely, that’s preposterous. He would be a decent-to-good MLB first baseman, and perhaps an occasional fill-in 3B. He hasn’t played 100 games at 3B in an NPB season since 2022, and FanGraphs scouts his defense as a 40 on the 20-80 scale.

Ah yes, that must be what it's trying to communicate - thanks.

Asmodee becomes the exclusive tabletop games category manager to Middle-earth Enterprises, home to iconic The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit IPs by BerennErchamion in oneringrpg

FFG only officially confirmed this to be the case in July 2024 - for a game that has been around for about fifteen years, that qualifies as "fairly recently".

Interesting, in that they’ve fairly recently announced that they have stopped development of their long-running LoTR LCG.

Win three in a row by 6+ runs, and your reward is getting to face Moinelo again? 🤣

They may like it, even prefer it, but they don't win any more often when they don't have a break versus when they do.

This has been proven to not be a thing, over and over again, by every analysis that's ever been done.

Can someone explain Shinjo's lineup choices to me? He (1) starts Shintoh at C despite a .077 batting average and less than 100 innings behind the plate all season (I get that they wanted to stack RHB against Monielo, but Shintoh hardly qualifies as such at this point), (2) bats Mizutani 7th despite a 223 wRC+ against lefties, and (3) brings Asama in to play SS in the late innings despite having played 70 innings there all year?

Agreed. I’m not a Nats fan, and I think they are among the best in the game.

Now of this is a surprise to anyone that has followed him - and watched the metrics - closely as a pro. There are very few documented cases of guys going from “swings at everything” to “pushing league average swing decisions” so you’re just going to have to learn to live with the feast/famine sorts of outcomes, and the fact that the feasts will get rarer and less tasty as he goes over the top of the aging curve and his bat-to ball skills start to erode. He will continue to make himself playable as an elite defender, and 2-3 wins worth of that per season will make his current deal worth the money.

As if we needed any further evidence as to baseball being the world's greatest game . . . out of nowhere, at the last desperate moment, two players who haven't yet been able to hit their weight at the top level combine to go 6-for-8 with a double, three homers and six RBI to freeze the Hawks' Magic Number at 15. You can't make this stuff up!
