Lame: The iPad is banned at Yankee Stadium
Posted on May 24, 2010 | No CommentsBad news, Yankees fans. Apparently the winningest team in the history of sport doesn't want you sitting inside the stadium with an iPad on your lap.

First 3D baseball game ever will air on DirecTV in July
Posted on May 6, 2010 | No CommentsListen, it's all well and good that DirecTV gets to make these grandiloquent announcements that it's going to offer this or that sport in 3D—today's news is that DirecTV will be the first TV provider to show a Major League Baseball game in 3D with this July 10 and July 11's Yankees-Mariners clash on the YES Network—but I have one question: why in God's name is Fox Soccer Channel still shown in standard definition? That's right, four years after I purchased my first HDTV specifically so I could watch ESPN-HD and ESPN2-HD coverage of the World Cup, I'm still staring at SD coverage on FSC with DirecTV. It's all a little bit stupid.

So much for that MLB 09 The Show prediction!
Posted on November 5, 2009 | No CommentsWell that didn't exactly pan out, now did it? Sony's MLB 09 The Show predicted last week that the Philadelphia Phillies would win the World Series in seven games. As y'all know by now, the New York Yankees (booooo!) beat the Phillies in Game Six last night to win their 27th championship. Congratulations, Yankees, you're the Real Madrid of baseball with a terrible stadium.

MLB 09 The Show predicts a Phillies win in 7 games (take that, Yankees!)
Posted on October 28, 2009 | No CommentsYes~! I'm rooting for the Phillies over the Yankees this World Season because I'm a Mets fan, and I'd sooner root for Team Mars in an Earth vs. Mars Loser Leaves The Galaxy Match than root for the Yankees. HopefullyMLB 09 The Show's prediction pans out, because it has Philadelphia beating The Bronx Bums in seven games.

It’s time for the MLB to adopt instant replay
Posted on October 12, 2009 | No CommentsLook, I'd be lying if I said I followed baseball this season. I'm a Mets guy, and you just know that, once April hits, you're in for a reasonably OK season, but one that just looses steam as the months go by. So why bother? What I can say, though, is that, given all this evidence, it's about time that baseball adopt the instant replay. Correct calls outweigh everything else. We have the technology!

Video: Two robots playing baseball (kind of)
Posted on July 24, 2009 | No Comments
Baseball is a national sports in Japan and so it was just a matter of time for this baseball- and robot-crazy country to invent (industrial) robots that are able to play baseball. The 2-robot team can't run around and doesn't look human, but both machines are able to throw and bat the ball in quite an impressive way.
