Watch live sports

I'm sure this has come up before, but is there any method/app/site where I'm gonna be able to watch live MLB games? Obviously different networks broadcast different games (FOX, ESPN etc.) , but I'm thinking that there's got to be a way to watch these games live on my phone. I know of MobiTV and I did try out their free 3 day thing a few months ago but I don't recall if it had what I'm looking for.

Gotta be a sports fanatic here who'll know

Darren,

I've heard of this slingbox, sounds intriging. I've looked at their prices and it looks like its $180 for the box and another $30 for the mobl player, so $210 altogether. do you actually have one, could you comment on how it works exactly? Sounds similar to the cgi proxies friends and I used in high school to bypass the firewalls.

EDIT: This slingbox sounds alot like a tv tuner that distributes the signal online. I have a TV tuner on one of my computers. Is there any software available that will distribute the signal online, as well as a player that can receive that signal and play it on another computer and WM6 device?

Fantastic! Works well on my laptop. However, is there a way to watch the streams on a standalone player (Windows Media mobile, TCPMP etc.) instead of using a browser like skyfire?

There is a piece of free software called Orb that works with most tv tuners. You can download the software for free at www.orb.com
