Knoxville Smokies News Release


KODAK, Tenn. - The Tennessee Smokies announced today that they have joined the MiLB.TV network that is provided by Minor League Baseball. Beginning with the Smokies game against the Chattanooga Lookouts on Friday, July 8, the video stream for all home games at Smokies Park will be available online for fans to watch anywhere in the world.

The video feed will also include the radio play-by-play provided by the 2010 Southern League Radio Broadcaster of the Year Mick Gillispie.

MiLB.TV is a subscription-based service that is provided by Minor League Baseball. A full subscription is now available at a discounted rate of $19.99, which gives you access to all the minor league games for the rest of the 2011 season.

Tennessee is the one of the first Double-A teams, and the first Southern League team, to be featured on the Internet network. Most Triple-A games are offered and select Single-A games are also featured.

"We have taken yet another step using modern technology to introduce the Smokies brand to a whole new audience with our launch on the MiLB.TV network this week," said Smokies General Manager Brian Cox. "Being the first in the Southern League and one of the first teams in all of Double-A baseball will help our loyal fans keep up with the Smokies. We hope Cubs fans all over the world will now be able to keep up the players that will one day be playing at Wrigley Field. We would like to thank Minor League Baseball and the MiLB.TV network for this great opportunity."
