    Yet their fans view it "free" while our fans have to pay an additional subscription, so we are paying twice it seems
    Comparing nationally broadcasted games to ESpN+ is wild

Radio is better you can listen to the game and do other things.
    Radio is not better.

    Meanwhile, even the field mic worked fine yesterday on radio. Have a great Sunday. Dress warmly if you're coming to the ball park.

    And, for the gentleman who said this makes us look small time. We stream more events than any non-power conference in America. I guarantee you that ISN'T small time.
    Jay hear me out on this one. I will tell you where I disagree with you.

    Every baseball game has replay cameras which means it is being videoed. They should stream every single game inside the stadium if not on ESPN+.

    The most expensive seats in the stadium are the press box suites by a far margin. When there is no streaming the sofa, 2 chairs and big screen TV become useless. You’ve got 20 people trying to sit in 12 stadium seats and crowd by a window to see the ball game. At that point a suite ticket becomes as valuable as a seat in the stands and the people are getting screwed and not getting all the amenities they paid for.

    The 2nd most expensive ticket are those with stadium club access. Same thing goes, if women, children or the elderly want to get out of the weather and still see the game, that stadium club access they paid good money for becomes useless when the game is not streaming.

    I have never been inside of any premium seats for softball but I can assure you when the game is not streaming inside of Russo park your top contributors are getting short changed and are not getting what they paid for.

    Curious about this because we were talking about it during the game yesterday.

    Where are the replay cameras setup?

    Guess prior to yesterday's game, I always assumed the ESPN+ cameras served as replay cameras. Without ESPN+ yesterday, we questioned the angles that were available for replay. I really thought Wright was safe at 2nd on the steal. Hell of a play if the SS did actually make the tag while 3ft in the air.

    We did see a very small camera behind home plate in the grandstand. Hard to believe that camera had the resolution to be used for any sort of replay. I also believe that the trackman system has video built into it on the batter and pitcher (please correct me if I'm wrong on that). Outside of those options, we could not spot any other camera.

    There are 5 softball weekend home series when baseball is out of town or doesn’t play and 2 mid week games that don’t conflict. Thats 17 games right there with no conflict. That right there would be plenty enough games to stream for soft ball without missing any baseball. JMO

    When we can't do an ESPN+ broadcast let's just have a fan with a nice camera set-up to livestream the game. I'm sure some RP posters could provide some fun color commentary. Every youth baseball tournament I go to has the players' parents live streaming the game.
