MLB.com At Bat 11 is free today on the Amazon Appstore for Android. No this is not an EA sports game. Its not a game at all even though it is dated like a game. Well, its about a game.
Lets just assume you are a true baseball fan and never miss a game from the comfort of your couch. If this is you, don't bother with this app. You already know too much. Though if you are one with a bad memory of stats, then maybe it is right for you. If you are the type that works too much or is away from a tv more often than all the Major League games ever played, then you should definitely download this app today.
Not only will you save $7, you will have the power of the internet and MLB.com in a tight and convenient app on your Android. Sure you could get all this info from the site, but not with live updates of every pitch and play. Flip through and find the stats of games being played in parallel without losing your place in your home game. When it comes to multitasking, browsers are only as good as the number of tabs they possess. Your stock browser can probably only do 4 tabs. This app gives you instant access to MLB news, standings, videos, your favorite teams, ballparks, and some MLB.tv subscriber-only stuff too.
Video clips moments after the clip occurred can be viewed in app. Though, if you are an MLB.tv subscriber you can watch entire games. Not live, but after they have been played. At the Ballpark brings you detailed maps of the park if you are watching a game live. How about menus of the concession stands that day? Check in to the game through the app two hours before showtime to unlock expanded video highlights.
**All this and much more, BUT with a huge caveat. This app is NOT compatible with all Android devices. Don't let this stop you from adding it to your list of owned apps, but if you don't have one of the devices listed below, you'll have to wait for an update:
