One thing I cannot understand is how we’ve come so far in the digital era but yet some very simple things cannot be accomplished. More specifically, the increased quantity of televised Spring Training games in Major League Baseball.

For context, this morning, it was announced that last year’s first overall pick Paul Skenes will oppose Corbin Burnes in Thursday’s game between the Pittsburgh Pirates and Baltimore Orioles, yet there will be no video coverage of it.

In fact, it’s only available via audio stream at Pirates.com, according to the MLB app.
