Major League Advanced Media is working on a “Catch Up” feature to help fans joining a broadcast in progress to quickly review the action they missed.
If, say, an MLB.TV subscriber logs into the livestream of a game in the fourth inning, the At Bat app will autoplay a reel of the key moments from the first three innings.
“Even though you’re an hour late, you feel like you got the highlights, you’re up to speed with where we are,” MLB’s executive vice president for strategy, technology and innovation, Chris Marinak, said on the SportTechie Podcast.
