Petition to Broadcast Arizona Fall League Games
To Major League Baseball:
We the undersigned, having no specific (or even general) knowledge of the requirements so far as skilled personnel or technology or other manner of infrastructure are concerned, nevertheless request (and, in certain spirited moments, even demand) for Arizona Fall League games to be broadcast via streaming video on our computers and maybe other connected devices.
We the undersigned would almost certainly be willing to pay a reasonable fee in exchange for such a service. (Like, I don’t know, twenty dollars? Thirty? Is thirty reasonable? We the undersigned aren’t positive about what the market is saying about this.) Otherwise, if these Arizona Fall League games aren’t broadcast, then we the undersigned will be forced either to confront the dark solitude of our respective lives or, alternatively, to adopt other leisure activities that help us forget such darkness. But as the first option is so dark and the latter requires intimate knowledge of who Chandler Parsons is, then we’d like just to get this AFL broadcast thing going, if that’s alright.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned

Fantastic Idea!
This would provide me with yet another platform to launch a major marketing campaign and to make scintillating changes to attract new viewers!
Additionally I, err excuse me the league, could institute a best-of-thirteen game AFL World Series so it HAS to go to seven games! Brilliant work Mr. Cistulli! Brilliant!

P.S. The Undersigned also want Pitch F/X systems installed in the other 4 of the 6 Arizona Fall League stadiums and access to the resulting data.
As a substitute for baseball from Arizona in the fall, you can watch baseball from Australia in (our) summer

Season starts this coming weekend. Catch ALL of the MiLB stars!

Thank you, kind sir! This is most excellent and I shall become a fan of Australian baseball very shortly. One question: is there a way for non-Australians to watch these games, or hear them, or in some other way follow them live?
When there is a game on, there is generally a stream for Sydney and / or Perth games on http://freezone.iinet.net.au/vod/sport/abl otherwise refer to the respective teams webpages and there is a link to streams under the ‘multimedia’ toolbar. Unfortunately the coverage, even here, is pretty terrible.
This is great info. Many thanks.
Are you for hire? My father George Bluth Sr. is in a bit of a bind.
yes, please!

Absolutely. The problem is, the douchehammers at MLB will find some stupid way of blacking out your team for your region. This is why MLB-TV is useless.
Signed. And also I wouldn’t recommend getting too intimate with your knowledge of Chandler Parsons because, at least according to his player page on The Worldwide Leader, he’s only 14 years old:
http://espn.go.com/nba/player/_/id/6466/chandler-parsons
Which makes his nearly 10ppg/5rpg in his rookie season pretty damn impressive.
He got in before the age requirement and was drafted out of first grade in ’05. People said the Rockets were crazy, but he played in overseas elementary school leagues and has finally developed into an NBA rotation guy.
(of course, ESPN has the proper age/year of birth on his page, now)
