Eminem at Etihad.

Ty Livingstone (I think that's his name?) looks ridiculous.

When you can be bothered watching Melbourne playing St Kilda.

When you hear baseball coverage on SEN as you in the car and think to yourself it is better than nothing.

What is baseball coverage like?

Pitch

2 minute silence

2 minute silence

Pitch

Mild clapping in the background.

Commentator wakes up to fill us in on the action.

Pretty much minus the background clapping part as there is no one in the stands.

HEY! I love baseball

HEY! I love baseball

I like baseball too, just not over the radio!

Or on TV.

It's fantastic in person when there is a good atmosphere.

Or playing it.

 

[HBF]

Got a few games IQ'd from this year. Feeling like I might have to watch one of them soon..

Yeah fair enough.

I don't mind watching it on TV but that doesn't come close to actually being at a game.

US Baseball? I can watch a match here and there on TV because i love stats and they throw them at you as fast as you can process them.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

HBF when are we going to see Melbourne Aces?! That will help us pass the footy off-season

Baseball in the US at the game is amazing. Baseball here on radio? Not so much.

I got to see the Yankees vs Tigers at Yankee Stadium last year. It was a sell-out game that went to a tenth innings...AMAZING!
I may or may not have tried to order a nacho hat and received incredulous looks from the retail food staff, but whatevs.

It's certainly of of the worlds unique sporting experiences. Even if people don't like the game I recommend a baseball game at either Yankee Stadium or Fenway Park in Boston. You can't say you've had the American experience without doing at least one of those.

UGH I love Fenway Park so much. My second favourite sporting ground.

Boston just has so much character. I went to the old Boston Garden as a kid and got to see the original big 3 in Bird, Parish and McHale play for the Celtics. Still my favourite childhood memory. Atmosphere 2nd to none. 16 Championship banners in the rafters ( now 17 ) along with the retired jerseys of Russell, Cousy, Havlicek etc. Ahh! Remember it like yesterday.

Boston is amazing. I'd go back there in a heartbeat. If I didn't live in Melbourne I could definitely live there...it's a beautiful city. I've never found another city, apart from the one I live in, where I felt so comfortable straight away.

That's one place i'm definitely not missing next time i'm in the US. Fenway Park has always been on my list to visit and i wanna see a Dropkick Murphys St Pat's Day Gig one day too!

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

The problem is that I haven't done much travelling at all yet but all I want to do is go back to Boston.
The food was much better there than any of the other US cities I went to, the people were awesome, the city oozes history and character...what more could you want!

You won't regret it.

I've done bugger all traveling aswell. Did the US as a kid. I'm told Boston is very different now. No more green monster swirling around the city with the freeways going underground.
