I don't normally forward mail from other lists, but it seems that the problems with mlb.com aren't unique to Linux.  Folks on the ACB list have also had problems.  Perhaps this will be of help.

The following instructions are for Mac users, but if you can benefit  
from these, good luck.  Also, these instructions are tailored for  
those users, such as myself, who use Group Mode.  1.  Go to  
www.mlb.com; 2.  VoiceOver will say, "HTML Content," when the page  
opens.  At that prompt, interact with it.  (Control+option+shift+down  
arrow).  VoiceOver will say, "Interact with Group.  Link, Register;  
link, Login.  VoiceOver will let you know there are three items in the  
grouping.  use VO+right arrow till you hear "Login."  Press the  
spacebar.  3.  The first item you should come to is Search; tab again  
and the second item will say "Go."  Tab again, and VoiceOver will  
read: "I already have an e-mail account."  Tab again, and that's where  
you would type in your User ID which is your e-mail address.  Tab  
again, and your screenreader should say: "Enter your password."  There  
you will type in your password.  Tab again, and there will be a  
button.  VoiceOver doesn't say "Login, Button."  (I believe in  
Windows, this button is the one that asks you if you want your  
computer to remember your login information.)  Press the spacebar at  
that button.  Using your right arrow keys, (for Mac users, VO+right  
arrow) move around the screen and your screenreader will say "Link,  
Audio and Video."  Click on that link.  There is a grouping where one  
of the items in that group will say: "Current subscribers, click  
here."  If you don't click onto that link, you will be taken to the  
form where you fill out to subscribe.  After you've click on to the  
Current Subscribers Link, use your arrow keys to take you a heading  
level, and in that section, the following listings will be there: Time  
EDT, MLB TV, Gameday Audio, Home, Away, MLB TV listing, Gameday Audio  
Listings, and after that, the times and games will be listed, followed  
by the Away feed, Home Feed.  Bare in mind, this may differ a little  
bit in Windows.  One thing to caution: If you don't have the latest  
updated Silver Light Player, go to www.versiontracker.com, or www.microsoft.com 
 and in the Downloads section, there should be Silver Light, and the  
link for your operating system, where appropriate.  HTH.  Richie
