2008 World Series Updates on Your Mobile Phone
August 5th, 2007 MobileFreak
Back in June, we told you how to get baseball scores on your phone from the MLB website.
Now that the diamond fans among us are starting to get geeked up about the pennant races shaping up around the league, we thought it would be timely to see what other mobile options are out there.
CBSSportsline Baseball Gamecenter
CBS Sportsline offers a media-rich mobile baseball experience called Baseball Gamecenter. This service provides live, inning-by-inning scores and statistics on every Major League Baseball game. There are different tabs for that day’s scores, the schedule for the next three days, and news from around the league. While viewing the scores, users may select a particular game to view the detailed scoring for that game.
The service is not free, and we’ve included the published fees from the Sportsline website, which list them out by carrier.
Baseball Gamecenter fees by carrier:
| AT&T (Cingular) | $3.99 per month |
| Nextel | $4.99 per month |
| Sprint | $4.99 per month |
| T-Mobile | $9.99 one-time setup fee |
| Boost | $4.99 per month |

Note that you must have a GSM enabled phone with Internet access to use Baseball Gamecenter.
Hardcore baseball fans that cannot be in front of a TV at gametime might find this to be well worth it, especially when October rolls around. (By the way, if you’ve already tried out Baseball Gamecenter from CBS Sportsline, let us know what you thought by commenting below.)
