| I'm a big Mets fan so I'd like to catch a game. They did have a MLB wrapup on Xsports tonight so perhaps they're going to show the games. If all else fails, there are Korean pitchers on both the Dodgers and Padres, so hopefully they'll pitch and the networks will throw on the game. |

Xsports will definitley be showing the MLB playoff games. San Diego will be featured because of Park Chan-ho. Who is the Korean pitcher for Los Angeles? Too bad about the Mets.  |

My mistake... they have a Taiwanese and a Japanese pitcher, no Korean. I guess was confused when a matchup between Byung-Hyun Kim of the Rockies and Hong-Chih Kuo was hyped up a couple months back. |

That viidoo (TVUplayer) is great, took a minute to download.
Baseball's on now (2 am)... if you're late stayer-upper. Should be good over Chusok. |

It was Seo. He was traded to TB.
Chan Ho Park has been on the disabled list. He's on the Padres posteason roster, but hasn't pitched for a couple of weeks, and isn't currently scheduled to start.
Straight off ESPN.com-
Padres August 23: Placed pitcher Chan Ho Park on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to Monday, with lower intestinal bleeding; recalled pitcher Mike Thompson from Portland of the Pacific Coast League |

| Yeah, thank god for Xports. What a super channel. Worth the price of cable alone...and you don't have to sit hunched over watching it on the computer. They show all the playoffs/World series and then replay the games every day. Watched Detroit/Yankees...missed Oakland/Minnesota because it was early and then they replayed it. They are showing all three of the games tomorrow one after the other. So much better than relying on streaming. Of course, some people probably don't get it in their cable package...tough luck. |

| I just liked having English commentary. If it is in Korean I cannot listen to it. I tried listening to the ENglish on the computer and watching the TV muted, but the one on TV was about 2 minutes ahead of the computer. I can just watch the computer like a TV anyway. |

What makes you say that, sparkles?
You got the inside dope? Is the jig soon to be up?
Anyway, let's enjoy the good times while they still roll. |
