G-Fafif Old-Timey Member Posted April 4, 2024 Posted April 4, 2024 The bearers of the Skyline logo prepare to eclipse the home of Skyline Chili. Jose Quintana, who last pitched about a month ago, takes on Hunter Greene (though neither will actually pitch to the other).6:40 PM on Apple TV+. Stream 'em if you got 'em.
Bob Alpacadaca Old-Timey Member Posted April 4, 2024 Posted April 4, 2024 Howie went on at length about his dislike for Skyline Chili. I've had it. It's like Cincy's version of White Castle. You know it probably a mistake, but it's what you do when you have time for one more bad decision before calling it a night.
Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Man, fuck the Apple TV games. I have a gig anyway but this means it won't be on any of the screens at the brew pub while I'm playing. I was hoping to multi task
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 I like that my eyes want to read this title as "Skyline Soufflé."

MFS62 Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Isn't Cincy the place where they put chili over spaghetti?That's wrong for a host of reasons.Later
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 I've never had Skyline Chili, though I would certainly try it. I can't imagine it's worse than those awful Primanti Brothers sandwiches in Pittsburgh.

Edgy MD Site Manager Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Does Hunter Greene still throw 150 mph?
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 And does he still have sisters named Olive, Kelly, and Emerald?

MFS62 Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Did MLB make the lettering on the backs of players smaller just to accommodate their first baseman?I smell a conspiracy. Later

kcmets Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Video kinda sucks, like they're playing in So Korea and I'm watching on aDSL modem from 20 years ago. Commercials are crystal clear, of course.

Edgy MD Site Manager Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 I'm not getting the Apple+ broadcast, and so I'm following on WCBS and on GameDay.GameDay has added this new feature that depicts the field. I wasn't really paying attention much until I saw that the little indicators that point to the defenders would move around as the defenders changed positioingn from pitch to pitch. Then I noticed that a tiny animated baseball would fly with from the mound to the catcher, and then the ballpark sensor data would show me the ball being thrown back by the catcher.When the ball would be put into play, I could watch the defender's indicator chase it, and the indicator for the batter running the bases. When he makes an out, I get to watch him cut across the infield going back to the dugout.A lot of energy and technology to show me a representation of the game — while restricting me from seeing the actual game.https://metsrostercentral.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/screen-shot-2024-04-05-at-7.22.06-pm.png>
G-Fafif Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2024 Author Posted April 5, 2024 A reminder that Apple TV+ allows you to sync directly to the team radiocasts, via an icon on the lower right of your screen.
kcmets Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 I have no such icon, but I"m on a TV with a streaming box and noton a computer or device so who knows....It's just one game, but I like to kvetch.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Is that what they're saying?All I know is that his hammy is hitting .048.Saved by Baty's glove for the second night in a row.
kcmets Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Brett Baty, professional infielder!
kcmets Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 Video here has improved dramatically, it's now like 3D TV.Guess the folks at Verizon saw my post.

Edgy MD Site Manager Posted April 5, 2024 Posted April 5, 2024 I'm starting to wonder if maybe Brett Baty isn't a guy making good fielding plays, and maybe he's now actually a good fielder.
