Shoutout. They changed it this year that if you bought Mlb Gameday Audio on PC, it works for the phone app also.

Last year you had to pay separate subscription for standard pc streaming vs android or iphone app streaming.

I guess I get the Ipad app. But I can't imagine watching a game on my phone...

I downloaded the free version and it doesnt even have at bats? Just boxscores?

Or am I missing something?

No, you aren't missing anything. The free version is barebones.

I only used the radio feature (through my MLB.com Gameday Audio account) - I'm not sure since I paid the $20 for Gameday Audio if I also get all the features of At-Bat Premium or not. I'll try to check today when the Cubs game comes on and see.

I've bought MLB Gameday Audio every season for years now...a lot more convenient than having a radio in my office. So unlike last year, it'll also be nice to have access to the game audio when I'm not by a PC or radio.

MLB at bat does video like a champ if you've got the mlb.tv premium version. you also get the radio stuff too. it's quite good.

Looks like I get all the features except streaming live games.

That makes sense.

I signed up for whole package thinking I could watch the cubs game on my computer at work. Nope! "Stupid" blackout rules do not allow you to watch local games via the stream. So I cancelled...full refund.

I believe there is an MLB.TV Game of the Day that streams free. If I'm bored, I'll watch that.

I thought they go out of their way to make that known. Every commercial and ad I see has it shown as a fairly large disclaimer, and they usually state it in the commercials as well.

The local broadcast TV rights are big money for a reason.

I can freely view the gametracker on my pc. I can not view it on my ipad. Why?? Are they really charging for viewing it on there when its free on the other?

Just pay the damn $20. You'll get radio so you won't hear the Appalachia crackheads outside anymore.

MLB Gameday is not free on mobile devices, only PC.

And yeah...it is $20. Eat it...worth every penny.
