Anytime it's on the MLB.com app I am happy. Means I get to sit in my office, crank out work, and listen to baseball.

[julio]

I wouldn't count on what I posted above. For whatever it's worth, the Phils' broadcast schedule is still listing today's game as televised on MLBN - but the mlb.com page is listing mlb.com under audio only - not on mlb.tv. The GameDay Audio site is still listing yesterday's archived audiocast, even on the "Today" page.

Frankly, it looks like MLBAM hasn't got their summer interns in yet, and they apparently just don't care enough to get things right. See the daily non-performance of GameDay as a prime example.

So, we'll see what actually happens. I may just stop trying to list the daily TV/Radio offerings until Opening Day - given that the data sources aren't reliable.

[julio]

As of now (12:40), there are no links on mlb.tv to a video stream. The Phils' site is still listing MLBN as carrying today's game on TV. Do they sometimes restrict the telecasts to just the MLBN cable/satellite channel, and exclude mlb.tv? Nothing like a legal monopoly to abuse the customers...

The site IS now listing mlb.com audio streams for both "home" and "away." Maybe we'll at least get Franzke/Anderson?

[Lawman]

I am listening to Franzke and LA as I type this up.
