How many games a year do you guys actually watch your team and how do you keep track of the season? I used to watch around 45 games when the Braves were on TBS. Now most of the time I'm listening to games on MLB radio and following through the Sports section. Just curious how you guys stay tuned to your team through such a long season.

Between Fox Sports South, Fox Sports and CSS I usually get to watch around 140 or so Braves games a year. It's pretty much a nightly thing at my house during the season. When I can't watch I just keep up with it online.

Wow! 140 games a year, kudos to you bamabear. I like baseball but I don't think I could watch 140 games a year with a game usually taking close to 3 hours...

I'm as big of a baseball fan as I am a college football fan. Hell, my wife even likes watching it with me.

When I was back in Ohio I used to either watch every game or listen to every one. Since I am down south I am lucky to watch 10 to 15 games. I usually just follow gamecast play-by-play or folow in Sports section like you mentoned.

It's the same way at my house bama. During baseball season there is always a game on somewhere. The wife and I follow along closely all summer.

I like Quick Pitch on MLBN. Nothing but baseball highlights and they cover all previous days games. Usually it's on in the morning when I'm getting ready for work. Who needs to check the weather? :lol:

I love baseball so much I watch almost every Padres game and watch tons of day games too. I don't mind the Cubs at all and enjoy watching the Royals and Reds. I don't have to like either team to really enjoy a baseball game.

When I lived in Cincy, I watched or listened to probably 140/162.

I still keep up with them and check scores every day, and last year I went to all 4 games the Reds played in DC

I usually watch between 120-130, the rest I follow online due to work. With the exception of the 2013 season though, because I am boycotting the Marlins for a season. Extremely unhappy with management and off-season moves.

I typically probably watch 130-140. Day games during the week aren't really doable anymore. Other than that I'm watching.

I watch or listen or watch on MLB ap every pitch for almost all of them, has to be 140+. If I'm not near a TV or computer to watch them, I can listen through the ap or at least watch the pitches.

I watch the Nats every night unless I have to go out for something. Between those few times and day games when I'm at work, I probably watch about 130-140 or so a year.

I've always loved baseball, and I used to use it as an excuse to stay up late at night when I was in middle school. I would stay up until the west coast games were over.

Forgot about the app.

I listen to/follow probably 155-160 games a season. Since I live out of market, and have to watch through MLB.tv (which is quite painful at times due to buffering), I guess that I get to watch only about 20-30 games.

Yeah, I had to do MLB.tv one year and was disappointed with it. You can't do the MLB Extra Innings package on DirecTV? The best money I ever spent! :10:

TWC here. I think the MLB package is available, but I am so mobile, I actually take more advantage of the radio than the tv. I am able to listen while at work or at the poker table.
