Are you a baseball fan? Are you a fan of a baseball team not in your market? If so, then MLB.Tv is for you. With the ability to watch any game each night (minus a few blackout restrictions), MLB.Tv is a must have in my household as each night even in the background, I typically have a ball game to check out. Sold for $79.95 per season for the basic package and $99.95 for a premium package (I recommend premium), it is a worthwhile price considering how long the baseball season runs.

First off, I am not an employee of MLB but love what this product has given me so much that I always am recommending it to friends of mine. MLB.Tv not only gives you the option of what game you want to watch that evening, but also a great way to catch up to what happened around the league with condensed games. Condensed games are available a bit after a game is over and shows every pitch that resulted in something (walk, K, HR, etc.). So if you just wanted a quick view of a game you can typically watch a condensed game in about 7 – 15 minutes on average.

Want to hear Vin Scully call a game? Want to hear your team’s broadcasters? MLB.Tv (Premium) gives you the ability to choose which team’s broadcast you would like to watch during the game. DVR Controls (Premium) are even available so you can pause the game when you have to get up for a moment or make your own replay of that last close play. Another great premium feature is the ability to watch up to 4 games at once. I typically only use this when my beloved Phillies aren’t on. Games are also presented in HD (where available) giving a very crisp picture.

I know there are plenty of fantasy players out there (I am a very poor one) and this program even has a player tracker built in. Load up your fantasy team and any time your player comes to the plate or is on the mound, you have the ability to switch to the game or look at it with picture in picture. Considering I co-own a horrible fantasy team and am in an APBA league this feature is quite convenient for me to keep track of my players.

There are also a good number of viewing options available to you so you are not tied down to your laptop. If you have a PS3, Roku, Boxee, or PlayOn Software you can also watch your subscription on your Tv! Also offered is an application for the iPhone/iPad that I will talk about very soon.

Considering all of the things you can do with MLB.Tv plus the multiple ways you can watch a game, MLB has hit the ball out of the park with this product. If you have the cash available this is a must purchase for any baseball fan, you will not be disappointed.
