Don, I have no idea how hard that is, but would love it if not too much trouble.

Question about the season 


Will we have to once again pay for radio for BASEBALL?  Will there be no on line coverage unless we pay?  Will we have to watch the weebles  wobble but hopefully not fall down to see who wins?  Surely CBS isn't requireing this for baseball too?  Will games be on WLAC, or some 16 watt station?

If the answers are what I suspect, I will once again hate baseball season.  Guess I'll get to see us live in Auburn a game or two.

CDore.....I think that baseball games are still being broadcast on 560AM. The Dores are ranked #3 in the 1st preseason poll and this should be a very exciting season.

And national coverage? I'm going to be stir-crazy down in Louisiana hoping for some news. I might end up paying to hear Fisher call the games.

Try Iheartradio or tuneinradio and you should be able to hear Joe call the games on your smart phone or computer.

Only the SEC and post-season tournament games are broadcast on WNSR 560am. The rest of the games are only available on All-Access with the play-by-play by Eric Jones.

Joe does the SEC & post-season games after basketball has ended. Eric Jones does the early games and mid-week.

Like sand through the hour glass, the date of the first pitch of the 2013 season inexorably approaches.  The countdown is on.

Eric is a really, really nice guy.  He's a snoozer as a play-by-play guy, however; he's 180 degrees off from Joe.

Re: 33 days 


Eric Jone's was absolutely terrible during the B&G series.  He does not seem to understand that his listeners are not "viewers".  If I was watching a video feed of the game his off topic banter would be palatable, however, I was amazed how disinterested he was in pitch counts and numbers of outs and all the other details of the game.  He needs to understand that his listeners are depending on him painting a verbal picture.  I do not just want to know that a batter hit a single to right field.  I want to know what the count was, what pitch he hit, and was the ball driven to the gap or was it off the end of the bat.

Can anyone tell me how many of the games are typically available to watch on the internet?

Re: 33 days 


All regular season home games are video webcast.  B&G is not, I imagine for competitive reasons.  Most away games are also video webcast, with more than half the SEC on the CBSSports All Access (if you upgrade your account from the $11/month to the $15/month, you can access all universities on the CBSSports network and watch those road games). 

As for Eric, he's much better than he was at first.  It works best, though, during the rare times they let Chris Lee broadcast with him.  Stallings is great, but he's not going to add a ton of game visualization.

Thank you for that information.  I am excited about the team this year and I was hoping to watch a few more this year instead of just reading the results.
