Hi Jim. For what it's worth TBD means to be determined.
I just visited the page where games are listed. For whatever reason,
Window-Eyes stopps speaking on that page, at least with the system I'm using
now. I haven't yet had the chance to try and figure out why. At any rate,
when launching System Access, I could read the names of the stations that
should link to games later today, but the only stations which actually
showed as links were the Spanish feeds. Unfortunately I don't understand
enough Spanish to follow a game, so I guess I'll be listening to something
other than baseball today.
The rest of what I've written here is not directed at Jim. I just happen to
be responding to the post that included his observations.
It looks to me as though MLB and its new player are still experimenting with
success and a case could be made for suggesting that the site should have
its act together by opening day. So I'll give some thought to whether or not
I want to purchase the product next season. Since the price is low, I'll
probably go ahead and do it.
But from what I'm told, the problem here is not blind exclusive, but is
experienced by sighted people as well. Sighted purchasers of Gameday audio
are also unable to listen when stations are not linked or don't appear.
Where Spanish links only appear to a blind customer, it's the same for the
sighted person.
For those who are suggesting suing, wow, can I trade problems with you?
*smile*
Peace,
Larry

The archive feature doesn't work also for the angels radio feed the link
is called tbd. Whatever that means.

Good point on WGN radio vs tv. Last night, the WGN radio link failed and,
during the game, was removed from the active list.
This is still an apparent work in progress getting things tweaked and
working. Hopefully, in the next several days, MLB (or the agent they are
using) will get all the ducks lined up in a row and working.
I get the sense from watching this annual circus is that there is more
involved than just MLB switching audio players; perhaps it is also
involving feed providers also as, why else, is this annual transition so
cumbersome and complicated.
