My approach to watching baseball in 2025
I don’t plan on watching much baseball in 2025. I will go to a few games in Toronto, since the general admission tickets are a good experience. The Blue Jays now have a fully renovated stadium, having put the finishing touches on the second half of the effort. They have definitely breathed life into attending a Major League Baseball game here, even if maybe it’s more of a nightclub atmosphere than ever. What do I care? They have pinball machines in the stadium. At least they did when I visited last year.
In November of 2023, I had to cut costs, and the sports TV channels package was a casualty. I plan on adding them for the playoffs, and I still pay for Apple TV+, which is still doing Friday Night Baseball. I may be inclined to watch a game at a pub, if I can get a seat at the bar.
I still plan on keeping track of the former (and hopefully current) Toronto Blue Jays in the playoffs on my notes page.

My approach to watching baseball in 2023
I overclocked watching baseball last season, so I'm taking it easy this season. There was a good, cheap package for all Toronto Blue Jays home games in April and, well, that was too much baseball.
This year, I plan on avoiding Twitter during the games I'm not watching (not hard, since it's a defunct social media site anyway), and relying on baseball.theatre for the excellent recaps Major League Baseball produces while not being spoiled by the end score. They are usually over 5 minutes, sometimes up to 12 minutes long, and are just the right size for consuming a full breakdown of a 2 ½ hour event. (There should be recaps like this for every live televised event.) I'm a patron, since the price is right and the added features are right. I'll attend a game in person here and there.

I took the pandemic years more or less off from watching baseball.

My approach to watching baseball in 2022
Tumblr’s content restrictions seem like they’re a lot looser than they were in 2019, so I’m a bit more comfortable posting here again. I might even resurrect a baseball bot of mine, since Twitter's API restrictions around bots seem more reasonable than they did in 2019.
With that, after talking about how I (didn’t) watch baseball in 2020 and 2021, this is how I’m watching baseball in 2022.
During the start of the pandemic, it was hard to get excited about baseball and other sports being played without fans. It really seemed empty in the games I was watching, in both the sense of the stadium and the product on the field. I did watch the 2020 World Series, and caught a game live in Toronto when baseball returned in the summer. I didn’t much like either of the teams in the 2021 World Series, but I still compiled my list of former Toronto Blue Jays in the Playoffs list, and was happy for former Blue Jays GM Alex Anthopoulos. I subscribed to MLB.tv at the very end to watch the 4 games of the season that had playoffs implications, which was a bit exhausting.
For 2022, I’m doing the following:
Not subscribing to MLB.tv. The Blue Jays are exercising their blackout again, which, when they started doing it, meant not being able to watch the Toronto-based team on the streaming service no matter where in Canada.
I’ll watch a few games live at the SkyDome, including my first ever Opening Night, thanks to a ticket package that has me sitting in the outfield 500 section, at a randomly assigned seat, for all of April’s games, for a decent price. If I end up going to 5 games or so this month, it works out to $15 each game. That buys me the privilege of paying an exorbitant amount for beer and footlong hot dogs, which I never seem to mind.
I’m going to watch as many of the Apple TV+ Friday Night Baseball games as possible, at least on as background noise. I made a calendar that people can subscribe to, which I'll update as best I can.
The potential lockout seemed to be awfully damaging if it had gone through, and if it did, it might have signalled the end to watching MLB and finding other baseball to watch. I'm not wild about the National League having a DH, and that's someone who prefers offence to pitching.
I'm still a lapsed Blue Jays fan, preferring to enjoy the game for what it is rather than feel worse about losing than winning feels good. I still haven't stopped watching it to pass the time, though.

My approach to watching baseball in 2019
I will not change my approach to watching baseball from last year. I’ve by and large stopped being a Blue Jays fan, though I continue to be a baseball fan. I still want an obvious resource for which fans of a team I should follow on Twitter, at least temporarily during a series.
All that said, I will not be resurrecting the AllTimesPacific Twitter bot, in response to their restrictive bot policy, and this will be my last post via Tumblr, in response to their restrictive content policy.
