Time to Set the DVR Alert

If you don’t have a DVR (or Tivo for you traditionalists), then it’s time to get one. With spring training games during the work day, one might have to actually skip work to watch a game! But with the new magic of DVR, the point is not to watch live TV, but to record it and play it back later while fast forwarding through all the commercials. So with this in mind, I lay out a few notable items worth recording through the end of the week.

Friday, March 3rd @ 2:00 am – WBC: Korea vs. Taiwan on ESPN2
Friday, March 3rd @ 4:30 am – WBC: Japan vs. China on ESPN2
Friday, March 3rd @ 1:00 pm – Dodgers vs. Braves on ESPN

That should take care of your weekend baseball fix. If you need more, there are some other Asian WBC games on during the weekend; you can check out the schedule here. Keep in mind, those Asian games are going to be fun for no other reason than to listen to the announcers try and pronounce some of the player’s names.

In blogging news, one of the Baseball blogging patriarchs, David Pinto of Baseball Musings, is having a pledge drive. He is one of the lucky ones that gets to blog as a full time job, and a large part of his income is generated by the once a year pledge drive. Dave was one of the first to link to this site, and gave me a great write-up on his blog. I’ve taken the time to donate a ten-spot, and if you visit his blog on a regular basis, then help support the great job he does. If you don’t visit his blog then you’re missing out on one of the best sports bloggers in the business, so check him out.
