Baseball - Television or Radio?

Do you like to watch the games, or listen to them? I actually like to listen to them. Of course, I check the TV when there's a great play, but for the most part I just like to listen.
How about you?

Radio for the romantic element...but I still watch more games than I listen to.

Good to know I'm not the only one. Thought I might be a weirdo or something...

I watch it on mlb tv. Sometimes they have the other teams announcers on so I'll watch the video and listen to the Sox announcers on the radio.

I do that too sometimes. I hate ESPN, and FOX, announcers.

Yeah, especially fox announcers. I like Joe Morgan though, so I'll listen to him sometimes. That old guy that he works with sucks though.

I prefer watching on TV. However I'll admit that I only watch the Yankees during the regular season.
The plan for tonight goes as follows: 25mg hydrocodone + + Yanks
A picture perfect evening.

I often have a game on tv and the radio on at the same time and sometimes I'll watch on mlb.com, but I prefer to see the action. A good radio commentator will put you right on the field though.

T.V. announcers are dumb as shit. The radio announcers seem to know how to call a game.

Yeah I have to agree with that. The TV announcers are extremely boring.

Well known that I hate the Sox, but really, I think they have the best Radio team in the league. Or they did last year. Rooney/Farmer are by far my favorite people to hear call a game. I can barely listen to the Cubs on the radio...Ron Santo infuriates me. I love Pat Hughes, but get rid of Santo...Bring in Steve Stone. Stone/Hughes would probably be my new favorite....
