MLB レビュー 244

Have subscribed for years, but damn...it seems to get worse each season. This years version... Watching game during an at bat, suddenly a series of commercials begin. Game footage comes back, but broadcast has skipped an entire inning. Broadcasters talking mid at bat, suddenly a series of commercials begin. Game footage returns but now its 2 innings later and both teams have scored. You press back button because WTH? You find the innings you missed and begin again. 5 seconds later, commercials begin, except they freeze and the close captioning is displaying the broadcasters dialog. You wait it out cause you can only press the skip foreword or back do many times. Finally the screen is unfrozen and you see the game being played mid inning, but what inning? OMG, the broadcast has skipped to the 7th inning and you've seen less than 10 minutes of the game, but 20 minutes of commercials. Now you reboot app. Try to find the 2nd inning you were watching originally. Ok, finally, but no! Two pitches into leadoff batter, freaking commercials reappear. Now your getting P.O. Pressing reverse button over and over. You now know what the scores is, and go ahead and try to pick up the game to at least watch the inning runs were scored. Ah, the broadcasters are introducing the batter yiu missed seeing hit the big home run on the 5th inning. Pitcher winds up and... commercials come on. No sound for these, as you again watch close captioning display game broadcast. OMG! What the hell is going on. You begin to freak out like Chevy Chase in Christmas Vacation movie! This is driving you insane! You question if you really want to watch game. Is subscribing to MLB.tv even worth it? No it's not, but you love baseball. Okay, calm down. Reboot the app, Hell, reboot the device. Start broadcast again. Ok, we are back to the announcers introducing the lineup. You hear the 1st two names, see the graphic of the lineup card, watch the first batter step into the box and... commercials begin again, and freeze. You can't believe it. You stare at the screen and notice that the lower bar is showing the score in the 8th inning and the close captioning of some inning is running over top of the stalled frozen commercial. You are unsure you are still living in reality. Why MLB.tv? Why is broadcasting a game so hard? Is this not the reason you exist and get paid to do by people like me? I mean, I'm sitting here with my device. I mean I'm just sitting here with my device. Trying to watch a ballgame I'm paying to watch. Who is running your streaming services? Some kid in India, riding a bike that generates power for his laptop? One of those slightly insane government types in Washington? If it was not for people who have an irrational love for baseball, you and your business would be fired. You just keep dropping the ball, further and further down the well, each season. I just want to watch a freaking game. I can live with your commercials, but show the freaking game, each inning. Don't go to commercial just as a batter swings at a pitch down the middle of the plate - over and over and over.. Oh, the game i was trying to watch just now, unfroze momentarily, and another commercial appeared, but then the whole broadcast went black and crashed! Every day, every game. You really, really suck!

Poor customer service and too many game blackouts. I expected something better with MLB on the logo.

Would not recommend. Called customer service and they could not fix it. Elevated the ticked and received a response about 2-3 weeks later via email saying to try the same thing I had already tried with the live customer service rep.

Will not renew or recommend.

I got the App sale for $22 but every game I want to see is blacked out. All I get is real time updates. I can do that myself....Waste of money.....definately not renewing for next year.....

The app is just useless. "Free Game of the Day" usually ends up meaning "Sorry. Trouble Loading the Game. Try Again Later."

Why don't they get some I T guys to fix all the blurps? Fast forward. rewind, etc is a joke ehrn trying to watch a game that was played earlier. Prehistoric!

Will not renew next year. Way too many blackouts for the price you pay for the baseball season. Save yourself money by not subscribing,

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! MLB NETWORK HAS RUINED MY LOVE OF BASEBALL. I WOULD LICK THE FLOORS OF WALMART BEFORE I EVER SIGN UP FOR MLB AGAIN.

This is a very poor service. Screens freeze, sometimes requiring a reboot of the app, or even the TV. Sometimes there are long stretches of black screens with audio. Sometimes the game won't display at all. I have had the app all season to follow the Phillies, and have not had a single game displayed without a glitch. I have numerous streaming services and none have this many problems.

"Today is touted on the MLB site as "Free MLB game day." IT IS NOT! Subscribers to this expensive service get some free games, but not us mere mortals who visit MLB. On top of that time-wasting exercise to find it out, there's quite a castle wall to climb to email MLB, which claims to want to hear muy thoughts. I gave up after 10 minutes. MLB means Major League Bulls&^.

The blackouts are ridiculous and more frequent than the opportunities to watch the games….even when they’re out of market. Couldn’t watch the home run derby. The commercials and breaks are choppy. Watching on a laptop it will randomly go back to the start of the game and you have to reset to “live”. And then there are random national and international blackouts - no explanation. For the amount of money it costs there should be more to see.

This ''AD-ON-Charge" mysteriously appeared on my Cox cable bill in June. Since I am on auto bill/bill pay, I didn't know about it until the transaction posted July 1.
Contacted Cox and was told it will be removed on the next bill.
When it appeared again Cox tells me to contact MLB because no refunds policy with MLB.
I have filed a complaint with the State of CT because the subscription was filed without my wife of my consent (we are the only 2 members of this household) and the only time we would watch the Yankees if it was on YES.

I really don’t want to hear Blake Snell or Anybody else talk throughout the ENTIRE GAME !!!

My elderly father is a baseball fan with a MLB.tv subscription. Suddenly, mid-season, he can’t watch any games: MLB.tv updated its app requiring the latest OS which his device can’t upgrade to.

He’s on a very low fixed-income and can’t afford a new device. I’m swimming in student debt and can’t help.

Surely an update that makes devices obsolete could have waited till the season was over?!

My biggest beef is the lame stuff that is shown between innings, funky "Flashback" moments, ads that start and then disappear and worst off all someone falls asleep who is controlling the between innings graphics and it comes back and 1/2 an inning is gone. That's a rare occurrence but it does happen.

This is what they advertise:
"MLB.TV Out-Of-Market Packages | Buy MLB.TV | MLB.com

MLB› live-stream-games › subscribe
Stream EVERY out-of-market game LIVE or on demand."
But they blackout games to re-sell them to Apple TV. The game I want to watch is out of market and it's blacked out just to make more money.

Way too many black out games and teams. Not worth it at all. Such a disappointment.

When you access MLB, it hits the first game that is blacked out. Then it sends me to log in under a different account or cancel to return to the MLB screen. When hitting cancel button, it bounces back to log under a different account. Thus, we have to wait for the Baltimore Orioles game to be over before getting in. We will NOT be renewing our subscription after this year. Wasted money. Not a lot of options to choose from for the cost of the subscription.

The price is not nearly worth it.all the blackouts ruin it I won't ever give up my hard earned money for a bunch of blackout dates not even worth it without!👎👎👎

Its definitely not worth it especially if you root for a team near you, luckily I can watch a few games since I live in the midwest and my team is the angels on the west coast but when the play the rangers,astros, royals and cardinals I cant not watch it doesn't matter if they are playing in l.a. or in the mid west.it is still blacked out and the stupid apple t.v. ugh no thank you! I paid 150 dollars to watch baseball on mlb tv I should be able to watch all games since I'm paying for! But no they dont care, they just want to screw the little poor fans that cant just leave there jobs all the time and drive 6 hours to watch a game and pay even more money to do so plus the hundreds of dollars they scam you out of at the stadium. Mlb tv is a scam do not waste your money! ESPECIALLY IF YOU LIVE NEAR YOU FAVORITE TEAM!

My issues with MLB just keep getting worse--blackouts, creepy and unannounced licensing deals with other carriers, making my paid subscription worthless, and (as others have noted), a corporate culture that actively disses the fan base they should cherish.

The blackout of the Rickwood/Willie Mays tribute game is the final insult. They frontsold this historic game for a week, then didn't carry it--it was, from the get-go, an MLB event.

I am a cord cutter--no broadcast, no cable--and rely on smart TV apps to deliver the content I want. I am also happy to pay for the content I want, but I am not happy to pay and not get it. I live in Massachusetts and am completely serene about not seeing games from Fenway. Getting blacked out, routinely, from games played at Oracle, three time zones away, is inexcusable.

Lazy, shiftless, capricious, greedy, illogical, and irresponsible--all legitimate adjectives for MLB practices. Changes at the top are in order.
