Hi greg, Those were clear and concise instructions.
As of this writing, I am listening to yesterday's Cubs game. It works
just as well for today's schedules. Once you get to Schedule, (this
is the way I approach it) it will list Times in EDT, then Home, Away,
etc. Then you run down today's schedule and select the station from
which you want to listen. I just installed the Silverlight Internet
plugin, which you have to have, in order for it to work. Thanks for
sharing. Richie Gardenhire, Anchorage, Alaska.

Hi,
I am not sure about the legality of posting silverlight in a public
download site. However, the instructions for downloading it are
pretty easy, so I will do Microsoft's job for the moment and send them
a bill later.
First go to http://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/resources/InstallationFiles.aspx?mode=sysreq
From the top left of the page VO to the right once, and you will
hear "link silverlight home page". Then VO down three times until you
hear "to install, select your operating system". VO down once more,
and you will hear "link no break space"; if you click this, you will
get the windows installer. VO once to the right, and you will again
hear "link no break space". This is the link for the mac. Once you
click on it, everything should go smoothly. It will bring up an
installer, and just follow the instructions.
I have not tried listening to the archived games, but I have had no
problems with the live games once I found them. It took me so long to
do so that I bookmarked the link. It is http://mlb.mlb.com/mediacenter/index.jsp#20080316
Well, actually, that brings up the games for March 16, and I just
change the last four digits of the url to the appropriate date. Then
just bring up the link chooser; select the desired radio station and
click.
Now all I need to do is cancel that three month "complementary"
subscription to Sports Illustrated that they gave me before I get
charged for a year (since there was no opt out choice), and I'll
finally be sorted. And all of this to listen to Cubs games. You
would think that I would have learned by now! But hey, it's the
centennial of their last World Series, so this must be the year...

Hello list:
Has anyone gotten the silver lite product to work on live games for
MLB? I am able to stream the archived games though as for live
games, no joy. if anyone is experiencing any luck please let me ...
and probably everyone else know (smile).
Take good care and I wish you enough.

Hi, would it be possible to get a post on sendspace or something?
I'm very seriously considering just abandoning mlb.com, but if I go
back to my parents' it will be needed.
I bet a lot of people would appreciate it if you can do.
Thanks,
Erik

Hi,
I managed to get it to install without sighted assistance by
clicking on random things. I think that it was an unlabeled image
that did it in the end.
I still have the .pkg file and would be happy to send it if you
still need it. It is 4.6 mb. Let me know.
