Cleveland Indians: All Games In HD
The American League team boosts its high-def schedule.
By Swanni
The American League Central Division team is one of the few teams to broadcast every game in high-def. (News reports say the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees also have every game in high-def.)
(With the exception of the Baltimore Orioles and Washington Nationals, which are broadcast by MASN, every MLB team will air some games in HD during the 2008 season.)
The Indians' high-def coverage will include games on SportsTime Ohio and WKYC-TV3 as well as eight games on the national Fox sports network.
Eight Indians' spring training games will also be broadcast by SportsTime Ohio.
"Since the launch of SportsTime Ohio two years ago, our sole vision for the Indians games has been to produce the best possible telecasts for Tribe fans, equal or better than any production in the league," said SportsTime Ohio President JIim Liberatore. "Producing all of our 2008 broadcasts in High Definition builds on that mission and allows the Indians to become the first pro team in Cleveland to have all games in HD."
The Indians are expected to compete this year for the AL Central Division title.
