MLB Extra Innings

About a month ago I got the MLB Extra Innings package. It's awesome! Definitely recommended if you're a baseball geek. On most nights I get somewhere between 6-12 games to choose from. It's been a blast being able to watch the league's best players do their thing on a nightly basis rather than just catching the occassional highlight on Sports Center. Tonight was a great example of the goodness that is Extra Innings as I got to see a good chunk of Rich Harden's amazing 7 1/3 perfect innings against the Rangers, while still keeping an eye on the M's game to see if Rafael Palmeiro would get his 3000th hit. Can't wait to watch the playoff race, now that I can actually follow some teams that might be in the mix. Mmm...baseball heaven.

I get MLB extra innings too, and I can't believe you didn't comment on the best part - getting to compare announcers from the different teams! For my money, nobody beats the Yankees announcers for even, unbiased, and thoroughly thoughtful commentary :p

Hearing the other announcers is definitely an interesting aspect of the whole thing. So far the Yankees and Angels win the award for the most annoying blatently biased announcers. The Dodgers and the Diamondbacks have been the two that I've enjoyed the most so far. Being on the west coast though I'm probably a bit biased since you get the home TV feed for most games and by the time I get home from work I usually only get to catch the west coast games.
