With no resolution to the Time Warner/Cablevision dispute over programming fees, the Mets season opener will not be aired locally for those with Time Warner Cable. For those at work, that's okay since you can't watch TV anyway, so it's time to get ancient and break out those radios. Of course, there's that whole "Internets" thingy too. And just because it says the game is on ESPN, it won't be due to local blackout.
Radio owners can tune on over to WFAN 660 AM and spendthrift technophiles can listen to every baseball game this season for $14.95 with MLB's Gameday Audio. The first pitch is scheduled for 2:10.

Baseball is the only sport that may be better on radio than TV and MLB's streaming every game played during the entire season is well worth the 14.95. For those with Verizon's DSL it is actually included with your MSN premium service. IMO the Texas Rangers may have the best radio announcers. And Cubs fans can get their full blast of Ron Santo.
actually the mlb stream is $14.95 a month or $79.95 for the year...
the price depends on whether you want the audio feed or the video feed.
i did say audio, right? and that price is $14.95 for the year.
MLB game day audio/video is great unless you have an APPLE computer in which case you get screwed... sigh.
kristen, they claim that it works with macs.
14.95 is for audio feeds for the whole year. And (after being on hold for 28 minutes with Verizon DSL)...It is NOT part of MSN premium/Verizon DSL this year.
Mmmm, sweet, sweet radio. I heartily agree with Ave that radio is the best way to enjoy a ballgame if you can't be there. As an exiled Brooklynite (currently residing in Boston), I've had to folow my beloved Mets via internet broadcast for the last four seasons (damn you, MLB! Why won't you schedule another Mets-Sox game already?!), and it has been a nice way to rediscover baseball on the radio (even without Bob Murphy). The downside, of course, is that I'm in Boston.
