@AndrewMarchand Agreed! I still think Netflix is a prisoner of essentially producing a “one off” game and trying to jam every bell and whistle they could into a broadcast. The zany stuff will make more sense when they air HR Derby.

NBC's broadcast feels like a ballgame.

The Dodgers are leaning in so hard they even summoned Tony Montana.

@TriciaWhitaker Netflix was a prisoner of having one game this season. Yes, they have Home Run Derby, and that is the spot for all the bells and whistles. You gotta keep the game the main thing. Give em credit for making it a Super Bowl type event.

Exactly. Diehard baseball fans need to relax. That broadcast last night wasn’t necessarily made for you, it was made to grow the game. You want new fans? This is how you get them. Big streaming platforms = bigger viewership. New viewers recognizing players. Learning the game. Getting interested. And you’re upset because one broadcast out of 162 didn’t cater to you? Be happy baseball is on a massive stage. Be happy it’s on Netflix and Apple and all the streaming with global reach. Nitpicking it to death only makes the sport feel smaller and it makes baseball fans look less appealing to the casual viewer. They’ll fix things. It will improve. And if you didn’t like it… you’ll survive.

@TriciaWhitaker Couldn't agree more. Grow the game. Not everything has to appeal to guys like me who have watched baseball our entire lives. New fans welcome and new ideas welcome.

I think the @netflix MLB debut was a prisoner of only doing one game this season. Yes, they have Home Run Derby and that is prolly the spot for all the bells and whistles. Good lesson for all.

How many will people call it Uniqlo Field at Dodger Stadium? Not many. For example, how many people say United Airlines Field at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum?

How many people will call it this, other than team announcers, who probably have to?
