Does anyone know why this game is not available on mlb.com?

[And That]

I'm watching it on MLB.com...

[wOOgiE22]

Not a good start for Manny. Bases Loaded and 0 outs

[Mass Haas]

It's video only, no mlb.com audio...

[Mass Haas]

Wow, that was a bonehead play by Dillon at 3rd...

[And That]

What on earth was Joe Dillon thinking on that groundball? Could have gotten runners out at home, third, or second. Instead, he barely gets the guy at first.

[wOOgiE22]

Parra is getting lit up. Does this seal Villy in the rotation, or does Ned want a lefty in there too?

[Mass Haas]

OK, who's this guy in the Parra uniform? Those are lollipops up and down the middle....

[wibadgers23]

Once again, the game isn't on TV here in the Eau Claire area when it should be. Hope this doesn't continue into the regular season!

[mls4]

Sorry that's what I meant, anyone know why it's not available on mlb.com audio? I suppose Brian and Bill are doing the video feed and no one is available for the audio?

[brewmann04]

wow the last 2 tv games an parra piched in both and does not look good at all.

see ya manny hope you like nashville

[wOOgiE22]

Even though Joe made that boneheaded play at 3rd, he sure can handle the bat well and take the ball to the opposite field.

[trwi7]

Escobar is very impressive.

[DrWood]

Parra is getting lit up. Does this seal Villy in the rotation, or does Ned want a lefty in there too?

"lit up" might be an overstatement. not finding the plate is the problem.

 

[trwi7]

Mota looked really good that inning. How was that not an error on Gwynn?

[And That]

Fielder just crushed the ball each of the three times he was up. Looks like he's ready.

 

If Escobar hasn't earned himself a promotion to AAA (from AA) this spring, he's done everything but.

[trwi7]

How annoying is the color commentator for the Rockies? Not only does he not realize he has a microphone but his laugh is probably one of the most annoying I've ever heard.

No kidding... I've had to turn down the volume multiple times because of his laugh. Mota has been a bit of a surprise for me thus far and is looking pretty solid right now.

 

[trwi7]

I'd like to add that Torres looked really good. He gave up a single but induced three groundball outs.

[twobrewers]

Tony Gwynn Jr. is very well spoken.

 

Prince Fielder....Well, not so much.

[sheetswannabe]

That laugh is buggin me too!!
