Waffles Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Just saw they're going to be showing episodes of Ken Burns' Baseball documentary on Tuesday nights. I remember watching it as a kid, how it kept me going during the strike, and I'm eager to see how it has stood the test of time. It would also be fascinating to see how they would cover the last 14+ years since the documentary was aired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raysox Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 What you guys missed if you were not there for the countdown to the first live programming at 6pm eastern, was a "Jersey Number Game"-style countdown of the final thirty seconds to Bud Selig's message launching the channel.Started from 30 - Nolan Ryan, right down to 1 - Ozzie Smith.Then, this:image taken from a thread on this message board - I wish I could do captures like this on things I can see on screensThose baseballs in the background appear to be from... 95? 96? But there is a Nationals one thrown in there.I also see a Rays one. I think?(2nd one on bottom row) @MichaelDanger19Â | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Those baseballs in the background appear to be from... 95? 96? But there is a Nationals one thrown in there.I also see a Rays one. I think?(2nd one on bottom row)Those baseballs are probably from '93/'94, with an update to include the Devil Rays and Diamondbacks in '98. Made by Spinneybeck, the first time I saw them was in a Sharper Image catalog. I have seen an old Indians one (block Indians type, pre-cursive unis) and a blue/yellow Brewers version (notice in the pic the Brewers' baseball is navy and green). I personally have an Astros and a Tigers one...wish I had bought more when I had the chance. Retail was around $15-20. Extremely hard to find now.Chris, the Nationals baseball in that picture is plain white with a team logo. Raysox, the ball I believe you have in mind is actually a Mariners ball, with "Seattle" printed on it. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

BaltimoreFan Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 I've been looking foward to this for a long time. I'm really hoping they also have some coverage of international baseball. I know there doing some WBC programming, but I'd like to see some stuff that covers things on non-WBC years. It be cool to see footage of some international prospects as well as coverage of the European leagues/players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a game of the week or something. Especially these days with all the Japanese guys in the big leagues. I know I'd watch it. I'd also like to see MLB Network carry some minor league games too.

slapshot Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 ESPN Deportes covers the Caribbean World Series and I think some Mexican league ball. I think MLB Network should expand into the foreign game as well. Back-to-Back Fatal Forty Champion 2015 & 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJBerthiaume Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Do you have to pay extra for the MLB Network? I have Comcast and when I go to the channel, it says "not authorized". Can anyone help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 You may need to buy the sports pack with Comcast. I get and its worth it because now I get NFL Network, MLB, NHL, NBA, ESPN Classic, along with a few others for $3.99 a month. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VandyDelphia Mike Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Do you have to pay extra for the MLB Network? I have Comcast and when I go to the channel, it says "not authorized". Can anyone help me?I am a Comcast subscriber, with no sports pack, and am currently getting the network. I believe part of the deal of getting MLB Network into 50,000,000 households at launch meant that Comcast would make it available on a digital tier that didn't require a sports pack. Plus, with Comcast having an ownership stake in the network, it's in their interest to make MLBN available to as many eyeballs as possible.I'm also in Joe Buck overkill mode now, having just gone through watching the Eagle playoff game, and using MLB Network as the channel to flip to when the Eagles game was in commercial.
