This is a production of Fox Sports Kansas City. However, it's a "shared" broadcast that Brian and Bill will also participate in. The FSN Wisconsin TV listing page indicates it will be live on their "alternate channel", whatever that might be.

 

EDIT: WLMW (see below, thanks for the update).

If you want to stream on your PC, subscribers, here's the audio page (Royals' feed) via MLB.com. The TV feed is there, too.

FYI -- Jeremy Jeffress is scheduled to appear for the Royals in this game.

 

Expect lots of kids up from Brewer minor league camp for this one.

The game is listed as being on WMLW on the Brewers website and on my TV, not FSN.

Interesting that the FSN website lists the game as airing on the alternate channel. The Bucks are on FSN, so the game in airing on WMLW. In the past when that happened, no one outside of Milwaukee was able to see the game. However, when the Bucks made the playoffs last year, FSN set up an alternate channel to air Brewer games outside of Milwaukee when they were airing playoff games. Hopefully they're going to do that with the regular season Bucks games this season, as four Brewer games in the first two weeks of the season won't be seen outside of Milwaukee if they don't.

The Royals' game notes indicate that LHP Chase Wright is piggy-backing Sam Narron's start today. The Brewers may be hoping that between the two, all nine (or eight) innings will be covered.

 

Given the sheer numbers, these guys would do well to impress today. They may be pitching for other organizations to see.

Kind of a bummer that this is the game being televised and not the "real" team against San Diego, but it should be nice to see some of the young guys.

I always enjoy watching Sam Narron and his Bugs Bunny changeup--one pitch and three swings and misses!

[endaround]

I thought MLB "highly suggested" that in SS games at least one or two starting players go with the team. Or does Counsell fill that role in Arizona?

[DHonks]

Kentrail Davis's bat wave reminds me of Jeromy Burnitz, the way it's way out of position behind his head until he's ready for the pitch.

[Invader3K]

Weird thing is I'm getting this game on WMLW (we have Charter), but the FSN channel currently has nothing on at all. Sometimes in the past they've carried the game on both channels.

 

And it goes without saying that WMLW's picture is still terrible.

 

Escobar just crushed a homer.

Nice job coming back on TV of the old guy with no shirt on.
