MLB and other college and pro sports need to stop selling out to apple and others. This does not benefit sports fans. It benefits corporations and stock prices.
Sports is for fans. Not corporations.

Giants are not on the schedule. Man are they having a really really bad season. I went to the game yesterday where they almost got no-hit and it was kind of depressing.

I agree
Plus, the announcers they have are HORRIBLE
I just watched the Brewers @ Diamondbacks game last Friday, 7/3, and I was almost tempted to listen on mute or find a way to sync up one of the teams' radio broadcasts to it
I know that the MLS games have the option to do at least the home radio broadcast, but as I haven't watched much in regards to the MLB games with Friday Night Baseball, I can't recall if there is the option to do a similar thing for these games
Speaking of that, as a Brewers fan, last weekend sucked in regards to broadcasts because 2 out of the 3 games you had to have separate services for in Apple TV+ for Friday's game and Peacock for Saturday's; just unacceptable and it makes me wish that these other sports leagues would take a page from the NFL's book and require that for a game that is on one of these streaming services to be locally available over the air in either teams' broadcast market

One of their feeds allows you to listen to the radio feed so they have already synced it for you.
Oh cool, that's good to know
Would have totally tried that out but was in a more rural area of a cabin at the time of this game last weekend, and the Internet we had there wasn't the best so there was frequent buffering so didn't want to make matters worse on a connection that was already struggling to keep the stream going
Fiber just became available in that area though so hopefully before next summer we finally we get rid of the now laughably slow DSL connection we have in favor of what should be much better fiber
Apple TV is the best of all streaming services. Completely worth it. If you have T Mobile you can get the Apple TV service for $3 a month.

Not going to switch to a Magenta plan at twice the price for that perk, but it is nice.
I must be the only person who really likes the overall design of the Apple broadcasts. The graphics are unobtrusive, the sound lets you hear the ballpark, it really feels more like being there. If I didn't already have Apple TV (the service) and MLB.tv, I would be grumpy, though.
