I think they'll show the playoffs if they're getting ratings

And I mean, they'll be getting ratings

This game is 0-0 and I'm having fun

It's such a shame that the games are held without any audiences. The most unique part of the korean baseball experience is the cheerleaders and the theme songs each player has. It's like merging WWE and baseball together. It's really awesome.

Ben Clemens

2:20

I wish they'd show more of the fan experience in the previews of these

Boy, I can't really tell if that was a hanging slider or if it was on prupose

2:20

i'm curious what the ratings end up being for the 5est start games

Ben Clemens

2:20

I'm so glad tonight's game is one that's doable in Pacific time

2:21

I volunteered to chat during it without knowing when it would be

Matt

2:21

my takeaway from seeing people in this chat talk about the fan experience is that I am going to a live game in Korea at some point in my life

Ben Clemens

2:21

Haha I know right?

That's my takeaway too

Saupold through six on 63 pitches. Just made a spectacular defensive play, kicking a ball down coming back at him, then running towards the second baseman, barehanding, and throwing while spinning.

David

2:21

I hope you just saw the defensive play by Saupold to hold his no-hitter!!! What a play!

Ben Clemens

2:22

Ugh I missed it. I need to get a second monitor for my laptop to go along with the tv

Saupold no-hitter on opening day would be awwwwwesome

Kirk Timjan

Chances we can get a Petriello Stactast broadcast for one of these KBO games?

Ben Clemens

2:22

Everyone bug Mike about it and maybe!

Those Statcast broadcasts are phenomenal

(realistically I don't think he'll do one)

2:23

But I think I speak for all of us when I say that we need more of them

steven hong

2:23

@Matt this will give you an idea as to what it's like being there

Matt

2:23

What are the ratings for those statcast games?

Ben Clemens

2:23

I have no clue actually

I'll see if I can look it up

IT's baseball the way I'd like to consume it, though

It doesn't hurt that they have Benetti

For my money he's the best play-by-play guy in the game today, and I watch a lot of RSN games

2:24

Mike is great, but Benetti makes that booth hum

Did anyone see Passan's bookshelf, btw?

The two things with pride of place were his book (sure) and a Rage Against the Machine album

Kyle Schwerin

2:25

It's a good thing I'm laid off so I can stay up until 3:30 watching all this.

Ben Clemens

2:25

I'm sorry to hear that -- but at least there's sports again

2:26

Wishing all the best, and I hope whoever you're rooting for tonight wins!

Matt

2:26

one of my group chats recently posed the question of what everyone’s home studio bookshelf Would have on it

Fun question

Kirk Timjan

2:26

Benetti must be the only person to share a booth with both Mike AND Bill Walton

Ben Clemens

2:26

OMG did you listen to the Walton game too?

It was amazing

Uh, sorry, I missed a home run
