SportsNet Detroit will be on channel 213 in the Spectrum footprint I saw some listening's for spring training games checked wasn't on just a blue screen with programming 6 with the Spectrum logo at the bottom. I saw the channel was added last Wed.

The Netflix scorebug is big... Lots of extra space. And then the pitcher/batter text is tiny.

Appears NBC decided to go with the existing graphics package already seen on the regionals for their MLB coverage.

Mostly based on the RSN graphics, but there are some new elements. The texturing and team logos on this version of the scorebug makes it look a lot nicer.

Yeah, was hoping for something similar to FOX & NBC's other properties where the scorebar is on the bottom of the screen, but this'll do, & I'm glad they went to a revised version of the previous NBC RSN MLB scorebar with the team logos as oppose to the recent refresh with the ridiculous font we see in Philly & Bay Area/CA. Also, here's the Home Run graphic which we unfortunately didn't see Netflix's version last night.

NESN has overhauled their look for the new season.

 

If social media feedback to this is any indication, expect NESN to revise their scorebug & make it smaller, it's at least looking at it on my big screen TV about 2 inches tall & just as hugly long wide. Everything else with this graphics element is fine. We'll see Saturday if sister RSN, Sportsnet Pittsburgh, shows this for Pirates games.

Huh? This makes sense everywhere else in the state, but in Fort Myers, WPB, and especially Miami?! In Marlins' territory?! This makes no sense to me.

 

But if that's the case, the reverse should happen too. Let's see Marlins games in Orlando, Gainesville, Tampa, etc.

Ridiculous? It's the same font used in various elements of the CFB/CBB iteration of this package. I agree though. I'd prefer this version with a lot more gloss and the team logos.

CHSN and MLBLM are so far the only broadcasters to have lamps for challenges remaining on their scoreboards (with CHSN basically doing the same design MLB did)

Yesterday was the first BravesVision game. It's using the Gray Media graphics that the OTA games use, except they moved the scorebug from the top-left to the bottom-right.

The BravesVision intro has a callback to the old TBS theme music

Make that 3, SportsNet LA is doing it too

 

Though ... they missed the mark. A lot.

Angels' Not Quite FanDuel Sports Network added ABS lamps. Unsurprisingly, they're following everyone else in placement (not to mention the Bally graphics already used that particular style of lamp for timeouts in its uncommonly-seen football mode)

WJBK FOX2 in Detroit and around the state of Michigan to air 10 Tiger games which started with the home opener last FRI which WXMI FOX17 aired it on DT2.

Some more observations:

 

CHSN has started overlaying the pitch clock as an augmented reality graphic near the mound. As far as I know, they are the first to do this.

 

The Mariners will be airing 10 games on broadcast TV in Washington, Oregon, Montana, Idaho, Alaska, and Hawaii, with KING 5 as flagship.

Speaking of Seattle, I've noticed that the Mariners' MLB Local Media productions (both this year and last year) frequently use a type of "panel" graphic above the scoreboard that appear to be completely unique to them, and have not been used by any other team. As much as I detest them for how dated they look, this is a detail that does make them stand out in terms of presentation.

I think I may have an explanation for them: the old ATTSN/Root graphics did similar "toasts". Given they maintain team-employed staff, it may have been added to replicate this functionality.

This is the first MASN season that's completely and entirely Orioles-based, the way the team wanted. As a result, MASN has a new logo that eliminates any references to the Nationals and its blue shades.

There's also a new intro. I saw a comment a little while ago, and the commenter stated their graphics are supposed to be based on the Orioles' social media graphics. That's fine, but I can't help but feel as though MASN's graphics are a slight downgrade from what's come before (not to mention, most of the graphics still use the sliding animations from the 2022-25 set on account of using that same infrastructure).

 

Also, the pitch clock is very tiny.

Since it doesn't operate in Canada, Sportsnet has been using a version of the ABS screens without the T-Mobile sponsorship/branding. Now it's got a sponsorship from the eyewear retailer Specsavers (which had already been sponsoring replay reviews on Sportsnet recently; both cases have been using the tagline "A Closer Look"). You may remember them from the upside down ads they were running during the postseason last year.
