Baseball is popular in some countries of the world. Baseball fans love, like any fan, to get their information on time. Going to your computer and searching for the news can be time consuming and inconvenient at times.
Today, people use phones more than they do anything else. That often leaves people with browsing their phones when on a break or otherwise being less busy. Applications are the solution for those who are on a tight schedule or spend some time commuting.
Baseball applications are aplenty, but here are the essential ones, which are the best for fans of baseball.
MLB.com At Bat
This is as simple as it gets. Any fan of baseball will most likely be following the MLB. MLB.com is the official site of the MLB. The application is simply great. It has lots of in app purchases which means that you can customize the app to give you more of baseball.
It allows you to stream games if you like watching on your phone. It also allows you to read various articles which are posted every single day. You can watch historic games and of course, get updated on a daily basis, or on matchdays, even more frequently.
CBS Sports
The CBS Sports app is free, although it comes with its own fair share of possible, paid, upgrades. With that out of the way, it is a great application which doesn’t only update you on baseball, but other sports as well. You can select a favorite team and get updated as soon as there is news. But, you can also watch live games and have a commentary with that. You can also watch highlights of games or read an analysis if you want to. It covers a lot of ground and not just baseball.
ESPN Watch
ESPN Watch is another application, like CBS Sports, which is free. That simply makes it better than most other applications, because you get it for free. Well, that, and the fact that it allows you to watch live games and get tons of updates on plenty of sports, not just baseball. Like CBS Sports, it is an app which serves multiple purposes, but the choice is up to you. Some prefer one network over the other, thus one app over the other.
No-Hitter Alerts
This is a very simple application which informs you if there has been a no-hit game. A no-hit game is where there isn’t a single hit in a game with 9 innings, according to the MLB. These do not happen often, so you will most likely want this app if you want to to be updated. It also keeps you updated on all things baseball-related.
These are the best applications for baseball fans.
