Willie Mays, one of the greatest ballplayers in history, died today at the age of 93. He was one of the dominant figures in the golden age of New York baseball, when the Giants, the Dodgers, and the Yankees battled for supremacy. From 1947 to the Giants' and Dodgers' final season in New York in 1957, at least one of those three teams played in 10 of 11 World Series, and won 9 of them.

His stats are astonishing. Over his 22 years in the majors, he had a .301 batting average. He had 3,293 hits, including 660 home runs. His 7,112 putouts as an outfielder rank No. 1 in major league history, and he had 657 more playing first base. He stole 338 bases at a time when base stealing was not as common as it is now. He batted in 1,909 runs. Beginning in 1957, the year the title was created, he won 12 Gold Gloves.

But more than his statistics was his infectious joy in playing. He greeted everyone with "Say hey" and became known as the Say Hey Kid.

“Willie could do everything from the day he joined the Giants,” said Leo Durocher, his manager during most of his years at the Polo Grounds. “He never had to be taught a thing. The only other player who could do it all was Joe DiMaggio.” And DiMaggio said of him, "Willie Mays is the closest to being perfect I’ve ever seen."

Above: Willie's famous catch in the 1954 World Series at the Polo Grounds on September 29, 1954. His over-the-shoulder catch made while running is considered to be one of the greatest plays in baseball history. The score was tied at 2-2, and not only did he prevent a home run, he threw the ball in to the infield, preventing runners on base from scoring. The Giants went on to sweep the Cleveland Indians in four games.

Peanuts for Friday 3/1.

"Joe who?" I hear you saying... per Wikipedia:

Joseph Henry Garagiola Sr. was an American professional baseball catcher. Garagiola played nine seasons in Major League Baseball for the St. Louis Cardinals, Pittsburgh Pirates, Chicago Cubs, and New York Giants.

At the time that these strips were published (1976) he had long since retired from baseball and transitioned into being an announcer and television host. I remember him as one of the hosts of the TODAY show on NBC. Joe passed on March 23, 2016 (aged 90), after a life well lived.

Collusion - The Hidden Side of Sports

Connor Phipps (48258868)

Discussion: Thursday 8pm

The term "collusion" refers to covert collaboration between two or more people or groups for a wrongous or criminal goal. Business, politics, and sports are just a few of the settings where collusion can happen. Collusion can have detrimental effects on customers, the economy, and society, despite the fact that it is frequently difficult to detect.

Collusion can also happen in sports, for instance when team owners work together to set salary caps or restrict player mobility. This kind of collaboration can be detrimental to both the participants and the spectators who pay to see them compete. In politics, collusion can happen when people or organizations work together covertly to influence elections or gain an unfair advantage.

As a frequent viewer of Major League Baseball, I have always admired the sport for its spirit of competition and the sense of fandom it produces. But I've been upset and disillusioned about the league's collusion issue. In addition to harming the players who are not fairly compensated for their skills, this also distorts the playing field and jeopardizes the integrity of the game. As a fan, I like to think that players' skill and effort on the field, not management's plotting behind the scenes, dictate the results of games. My faith in the sport's fairness is destroyed by collusion, and it is tougher for me to love it as much as I once did.

In the late 1990s and early 2000s, Major League Baseball (MLB) saw certain instances of collusion. Several organizations were charged with conspiring to reduce player pay at the time by deciding not to sign lucrative contracts with free agents.

An MLB player made an average of $1.07 million in 1995. It had barely climbed to $2.38 million by 2001. This was in spite of the fact that the league's earnings during that time period went from $1.9 billion in 1995 to $3.5 billion in 2001, a huge rise.

Figure 1: Team Revenues all in the millions 

Figure 2: Player Revenues huge difference between team and player revenues

The MLB Players' Union filed a grievance against the league in 1998, alleging collusion amongst team owners. The union charged that teams were working together to avoid competing with one another for free-agent players, which was driving down wages. The dispute was arbitrated, and in 2000, the players were given $280 million in damages when the arbitrator found in favor of the players' union.

This collusion had significant results. Several gifted athletes failed to secure the contracts they merited, and some were forced to retire early or accept pay below what was fair. Teams with smaller payrolls were at a disadvantage relative to those with greater payrolls, which had an effect on the competitive balance of the league.

Overall, this example shows the real-world consequences of collusion in sports, including its impact on player salaries and the overall competitive balance of a league. It also highlights the importance of holding organizations accountable for engaging in collusion and ensuring that players are able to earn fair compensation for their skills and contributions to the sport.

The Evolution of Major League Broadcasting: From Radio Waves to Digital Age Glory

In the world of sports, broadcasting has always played a pivotal role in connecting fans with their favorite teams and athletes. Nowhere is this more evident than in Major League Baseball (MLB), where the evolution of broadcasting has mirrored technological advancements and changing fan preferences. From the crackling radio waves of yesteryear to the high-definition streams of today, MLB broadcasting has transformed significantly over the decades. This article explores this evolution, highlighting key technological milestones, broadcasting legends, and the future of baseball broadcasting in the digital age 메이저리그중계.

The Early Days: Radio and the Golden Age of Baseball

Baseball and radio have been inseparable since the early 20th century. In the 1920s, the first baseball games were broadcast on radio, allowing fans to follow the action from their living rooms. These broadcasts became immensely popular, with legendary broadcasters like Red Barber and Vin Scully becoming household names. Their vivid descriptions painted pictures in the minds of listeners, capturing the drama and excitement of the game.

Radio broadcasts became a lifeline for fans during World War II when many could not attend games in person. It was during this era that the phrase "the crack of the bat, the roar of the crowd" entered the lexicon, as radio brought the ballpark atmosphere into homes across America.

Television and the Rise of Visual Broadcasting

The advent of television in the 1950s changed the landscape of baseball broadcasting forever. Suddenly, fans could see the players in action, watch the flight of the ball, and witness the emotion on the field. The first televised MLB game was on August 26, 1939, and television quickly became the dominant medium for sports broadcasting.

In the 1960s and 1970s, networks like NBC and ABC began broadcasting games nationally, further increasing the popularity of the sport. The 1975 World Series between the Boston Red Sox and Cincinnati Reds, famously known for Carlton Fisk's game-winning home run in Game 6, drew millions of viewers and cemented baseball's place in the television landscape.

Cable and Satellite: The Expansion of Viewing Options

The 1980s brought about the rise of cable and satellite television, which allowed for even more baseball coverage. Regional sports networks like YES Network and NESN began broadcasting games of local teams, catering to fans who couldn't attend games in person. This era also saw the birth of 24-hour sports networks like ESPN, which featured highlights, analysis, and live broadcasts of games from across the league.

The availability of cable and satellite TV made it easier for fans to follow their favorite teams and players, regardless of where they lived. This era also marked the beginning of contract disputes between networks and cable providers, as the demand for sports programming continued to grow.

The Internet and Streaming: Baseball in the Digital Age

The 21st century has brought about a revolution in how fans consume baseball content. The internet and streaming services have made it possible for fans to watch games on their computers, tablets, and smartphones. MLB.tv, launched in 2002, allows fans to stream games live or on-demand, giving them unprecedented access to their favorite teams.

Social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook have also become important tools for MLB broadcasting, allowing fans to interact with each other and share highlights in real-time. Major League Baseball has embraced these platforms, posting highlights and behind-the-scenes content to engage fans and attract new viewers.

The Future of MLB Broadcasting: Virtual Reality and Beyond

As technology continues to evolve, so too will baseball broadcasting. Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) have the potential to transform the fan experience, allowing viewers to feel like they're sitting in the ballpark from the comfort of their own homes. MLB has already experimented with VR broadcasts, and it's only a matter of time before this technology becomes more widely available.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are also expected to play a role in the future of MLB broadcasting. These technologies can be used to personalize the viewing experience, providing fans with customized highlights and analysis based on their preferences.

Broadcasting Legends: The Voices of Baseball

Throughout the history of MLB broadcasting, there have been many legendary voices that have brought the game to life for millions of fans. Vin Scully, known for his poetic style and encyclopedic knowledge of the game, called Dodgers games for 67 years before retiring in 2016. Harry Caray, with his trademark enthusiasm and love for the game, became a beloved figure during his time with the Chicago Cubs and later the St. Louis Cardinals.

Today, broadcasters like Joe Buck and Bob Costas continue to carry on the tradition of excellence in baseball broadcasting, bringing their own unique styles and perspectives to the game.

Challenges and Opportunities in Modern Broadcasting

While the digital age has brought about many opportunities for MLB broadcasting, it has also presented its fair share of challenges. Piracy and illegal streaming continue to be a concern for rights holders, as fans look for ways to watch games without paying for access. MLB and its broadcasting partners are working to combat these issues, but it remains a constant battle.

At the same time, the global reach of the internet has opened up new markets for baseball, allowing the sport to attract fans from around the world. MLB has made efforts to expand its international presence, with games being played in countries like Japan and Mexico.

Conclusion: The Enduring Appeal of MLB Broadcasting

The history of MLB broadcasting is a story of innovation, from the early days of radio to the digital age of streaming. The evolution of technology has transformed the way fans experience the game, bringing them closer to the action than ever before. As we look to the future, one thing is certain: baseball broadcasting will continue to evolve, providing fans with new and exciting ways to connect with their favorite teams and players.

The Global Guide to Exploring Overseas Baseball Broadcast

Fans around the world are eager to watch their favourite teams and leagues even when they're far away. The overseas baseball broadcast is a vital element to fans who wish to remain connected with the action. This guide explores the different aspects of soccer broadcasting overseas, giving fans tips and insights on how they can catch the most exciting moments.

Key Broadcasters and Streaming Services

The landscape for overseas soccer broadcasting is dominated by a few major broadcasters. ESPN, Sky Sports and beIN Sports provide extensive coverage for top leagues, such as English Premier League (EPL), La Liga, Serie A and Bundesliga. Streaming platforms such as DAZN and Amazon Prime Video have also secured the broadcast rights for various competitions. This makes it easy for fans to view matches on demand or live. Knowing what these streaming services offer can help you choose the right service for your viewing preference.

Navigating Different Time Zones

The time zone differences can be a challenge for soccer fans from around the world. A Premier League match played in Britain might be broadcast in Asia late at night or early the next morning. Fans can manage their schedules using tools like Live Soccer TV and FlashScore which show match times in the local time zone. Set reminders or alarms to ensure that you don't forget any important moments.

Viewing options that are legal and secure

It's crucial that soccer fans choose safe and legal options for watching matches online. Subscription packages are available from many streaming networks that allow access to exclusive content, live matches and replays. NBC Sports Gold, for example, covers the Premier League across the US while Optus Sport provides extensive coverage of the Australian league. Subscribers to these services are not only supporting the sport, but they also guarantee a reliable and high-quality viewing experience free of the dangers associated with illegal streams.

How to bypass geo-restrictions using VPNs

Due to broadcasting rights in certain regions, geo-restrictions may prevent soccer fans from watching some broadcasts. Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) are a common way to circumvent these restrictions. VPNs mask the IP addresses of users, making it appear that they're accessing the Internet from another location. It is especially useful for football fans who want to use UK services such as BBC iPlayer and ITV Hub in order to stream matches. To ensure smooth and secure streaming, it's important to select a VPN that is reputable 해외야구중계.

Enhancing your overseas baseball broadcast viewing experience

Watching matches on Overseas Baseball broadcasts can be enhanced to make them more exciting. Many streaming and broadcasting services provide features such as multiple camera angles and different language commentary. They also offer in-depth analysis of matches. Twitter, Facebook and Instagram are social media platforms that provide live updates, interactive discussion, and allow fans to interact with soccer communities around the world. Virtual Reality (VR), for example, is a technology that offers immersive viewing, which brings fans even closer to the game than before.

The Future of Overseas Baseball Broadcast

With the constant advancements of technology, the future looks bright for overseas soccer broadcasting. Augmented Reality and Artificial Intelligence are set to provide personalized, interactive experiences. The rollout of the 5G will improve streaming quality, reduce latency and enable smoother mobile broadcasts. Soccer fans can expect to see more and better streaming and broadcasting services as the industry continues to develop.

Conclusion

The overseas baseball broadcast allows fans to follow their teams and leagues regardless of geographic barriers. Fans can have a high-quality viewing experience by understanding broadcasters, streaming services, time zones and legal options. The future of soccer broadcasting will bring fans even more immersive and innovative ways to enjoy the excitement of the game. The global reach of broadcasts for soccer ensures the game is accessible to everyone, whether you are watching in your living room or while on the move.

Amazon, known for its online shopping, also has a streaming service called Amazon Prime Video. It's become a big deal, especially for people who subscribe to Amazon Prime. The CEO, Andy Jassy, told shareholders that they believe Prime Video can be a big and profitable business by itself.

Lately, Amazon has been adding ads to Prime Video, which has more than 200 million viewers each month. They've also started showing live sports like Thursday Night Football NFL games. This shows that Amazon is serious about growing its streaming business and making it even more attractive for Prime subscribers.

 4. Disney (DIS)

Disney is changing the way it does business by focusing more on streaming. Their main service, Disney+, now has about 118 million subscribers who pay around $7 to $8 per month. Disney also owns other popular channels like ESPN for sports, ABC for news and shows, and the Disney channel for kids' entertainment.

Even though Disney has these great assets, it's facing some challenges as the industry shifts. Morningstar's Dolgin says that while Disney has advantages, the new way of doing things might not be as profitable as before. Still, Disney is adapting and finding ways to stay strong in the ever-changing media world.

5. Apple (AAPL)

While Apple is famous for creating iPhones, iPads, and Mac computers, it's also made a big streaming service called Apple TV+. They don't share a lot of details about it, but it's believed that around 25 million people pay for it, and more might get it through special deals.

Popular shows like Ted Lasso have attracted viewers to Apple TV+, and they've even started showing live sports like Major League Baseball and Major League Soccer. So, even though Apple is mainly known for its devices, it's also making a name for itself in the streaming world.

6. Comcast (CMCSA)

Comcast, a well-known media company, is shifting towards streaming with its service called Peacock. It owns big brands like NBC, Telemundo, Universal, and Sky. By the end of 2023, Peacock had around 31 million people paying for it, but it also faced a loss of about $2.7 billion.

To attract more subscribers, Comcast is focusing on adding live sports to Peacock. They've already streamed an NFL playoff game in early 2024, and they also show college basketball and football games. This move shows that Comcast is serious about competing in the streaming world by offering popular sports content. 

7. Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD)

Warner Bros. Discovery is a big company that owns a bunch of popular media brands like HBO, CNN, Discovery Channel, HGTV, and more. They also have famous franchises like Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, and The Lord of the Rings.

At the end of 2023, Warner Bros. Discovery said they had nearly 98 million subscribers for their various services, which include HBO Max, legacy HBO, and Discovery+. This company came together in 2022 when Discovery merged with AT&T's media business, showing that they're a major player in the entertainment industry.

8. Paramount Global (PARA)

Paramount Global owns lots of popular media channels like CBS, Nickelodeon, MTV, and Comedy Central. Their streaming service, Paramount+, had over 71 million subscribers by March 2024.

Right now, Paramount is thinking about merging with another company, but it's not certain if it will happen. They've been talking with Skydance Media, and they also got an offer from Sony and a private equity firm called Apollo, who want to buy Paramount with cash. These talks show that Paramount is exploring options to grow and strengthen its business.

Netflix started offering streaming services in 2007 and has become the biggest player in the industry. They have around 270 million subscribers worldwide as of March 2024 and made a profit of $5.4 billion in 2023.

Seeing Netflix's success, other companies jumped into streaming, but most haven't done as well. Big names like Disney and Comcast tried with services like Disney+, but they mostly lost money. Tech giants like Apple and Amazon also joined in, with varying levels of success.

Recently, Disney said Disney+ gained over 6 million new subscribers, and its losses in streaming got smaller. But the stock still dropped about 10% because they don't expect more growth this quarter and costs will hurt profits. Paramount Global, struggling to make money from streaming, is considering takeover offers. Sony and a private equity firm called Apollo offered $26 billion in cash in early May.

Networks unite to create new sports streaming platform

Miami

ESPN, Fox and Warner Bros Discovery have reached agreement on a new streaming platform for live sports content, the companies said on Tuesday.

The platform would combine the sports offerings of the three networks in one product offering content from the USA's top leagues and is planned to be launched in autumn of this year.

The networks said in a statement that they had "reached an understanding on principal terms to form a new Joint Venture (JV) to build an innovative new platform to house a compelling streaming sports service".

The companies said that the formation of the package is subject to them reaching "definitive agreements".

The product is targeted at "cord-cutters" who prefer to subscribe to streaming services rather than traditional cable tv packages.

"The platform would aggregate content to offer fans an extensive, dynamic lineup of sports content, aiming to provide a new and differentiated experience to serve sports fans, particularly those outside of the traditional pay TV bundle," the statement said.

Consumers would be able to bundle the product with existing broader streaming offerings from Disney+, Hulu and Max.

The new platform would provide access to ESPN's existing streaming platform ESPN+ as well as the main channels from ESPN, Fox and Warner Bros.

It would include games from the NFL, NBA and Major League Baseball, NASCAR, UFC, college sports, PGA Tour golf and international soccer, including the 2026 World Cup, which will be broadcast on Fox.

"The launch of this new streaming sports service is a significant moment for Disney and ESPN, a major win for sports fans, and an important step forward for the media business," said Bob Iger, CEO of The Walt Disney Company said.

"This means the full suite of ESPN channels will be available to consumers alongside the sports programming of other industry leaders as part of a differentiated sports-centric service," he added.

While the new platform would offer plenty of sport for fans, it would not however be able to bring all the top games under one package.

The NFL dominates ratings in the USA and not all the games in the league would be included in the proposed new product.

CBS, NBC and Amazon Prime Video also own rights to nationally broadcast NFL games and Google's YouTube TV has the rights for the NFL's Sunday Ticket service which offers access to all "out of market" games.

NBC offers streaming of sports through its Peacock service while CBS streams content on Paramount Plus.

The three networks are confident though that their package will appeal to sports fans who increasingly have to navigate a range of apps and subscriptions to follow their favorite sports.

"We’re pumped to bring the FOX Sports portfolio to this new and exciting platform. We believe the service will provide passionate fans outside of the traditional bundle an array of amazing sports content all in one place," said Lachlan Murdoch, Executive Chair and CEO of FOX.

David Zaslav, CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery, said the new service would provide an "unparalleled combination of marquee sports rights and access to the greatest sporting events in the world".

"This new sports service exemplifies our ability as an industry to drive innovation and provide consumers with more choice, enjoyment and value and we’re thrilled to deliver it to sports fans," he said.

The statement did not give any indication of the cost of subscription to the service.
