Guest Mosaicv2 Report post Posted April 6, 2004 The nationally televised game between the Red Sox and Orioles Sunday night was the most-watched regular season major league game in ESPN2 history. The game between Boston and Baltimore drew a 1.9 national rating, up 36 percent from the network's previous opener in 2002. he ratings did not include the Boston and Providence markets, which carried the game on local TV. Still, nearly 2.2 million people tuned in for baseball's first game of the year played in the United States, five days after the Yankees and Devil Rays opened the 2004 season in Japan. The Orioles' 7-2 win drew a 1.8 rating among men aged 18-34, the highest for that demographic of any regular-season major league telecast on the network. Im betting a good majority of the number was from Baltimore though. Stupid Comcast Sportsnet didn't carry the game. and its still 3-1 into the 6th. Schilling is close to 90 pitches..hopefully they can get him out of there and get to the bullpen. are you kiddin, wat did the Os did last year... not much... it was probably more watch in Boston Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clemens on Wednesday. no... its Clemens... I just check it From ESPN's front baseball page: Jamie Moyer, 41, isn't quite a graybeard yet for the Mariners. There are three over-40 starters who figure prominently this season, Phil Rogers writes. Two are Opening Day starters. Jamie Moyer in Seattle and Randy Johnson in Arizona open today. Roger Clemens makes his NL debut Wednesday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damon collided with Millar and took Millar out of the game. Its still 3-1 going to the 9th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Anglesault Report post Posted April 6, 2004 (edited) I wish I could see the Red Sox games....every game seems to be on NESN this year which we dont get in CT anymore. I know. I was kind of interested in checking the game out, but I obviously can't get NESN. Damn tease, because it shows up on my guide. Edit: Fuck, it was on ESPN2?

KanadianKrusty 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2004 Oh yeah, Jays/Tigers tonight at 7 eastern on Sportsnet~!, I can't help but root for the Tigers if only for my ever-growing hatred of the Blue Jays. It's always fun to watch an underdog team that has absolutely nothing to lose just to see how many wins they'll get. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest OctoberBlood Report post Posted April 6, 2004 I'm glad Extra Innings is free today. Some good games. Too bad its I'm too poor to afford it. But, Fox Sports Ohio is showing 100 Reds games this season, so I'm happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well not always but last year the Tigers got to rock bottom and maybe even deeper, they made a few significant changes, so to me it's interesting to see exactly how much they've improved and how many wins they'll get.
