<p>Today MLB.TV <a href="http://www.baseballdigest.com/2010/01/28/mlb-tv-to-offer-portable-option-in-2010/" target="_blank">announced that the 2010 version of its awesome service is now available</a>.  For those of you with fancy iPhones and iPads and iWhatevers, you can get your <a href="http://www.mlb.tv" target="_blank">MLB.TV</a> to go; I&#8217;ll have to settle for the Dell XPS screen or monitor (I can connect it to my TV too but it doesn&#8217;t look quite as clear)&#8230;</p>
<p>Just getting to listen to <a href="http://www.radiohof.org/sportscasters/vinscully.html" target="_blank"><strong>Vin Scully</strong></a> do games makes it worth it enough, but I like putting 3-4 games on at once and checking out the different broadcasts (some better than others).  It&#8217;s nice after a Yankees game to put on a few innings of Scully and check out the other West Coast games at my leisure, or maybe watch <a href="http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/g/greinza01.shtml?redir" target="_blank"><strong>Zack Greinke</strong></a> or <strong>Tim Lincicum</strong> throw.</p>
<p>Pitchers and catchers in 20 days!</p>

<p>So it&#8217;s not surprising to read that Darling and his broadcast teammates <strong>Gary Cohen </strong>and <strong>Keith Hernandez</strong> have formed the <a href="http://www.pitchinforagoodcause.org" target="_blank">Pitch in for a Good Cause Foundation</a>, which according to its Website is a non-profit organization that sells tickets to special Mets events, T-shirts, baseball caps, bears and mugs with one objective in mind: to give back to those who are less fortunate.  Cohen&#8217;s wife Lynn spearheaded the efforts to get the Foundation started and has been integral in its success.</p>
<p>This week, the <a href="http://www.pitchinforagoodcause.org/index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=category&amp;layout=blog&amp;id=36&amp;Itemid=76" target="_blank">Foundation announced that its 2010 recipient</a> would be <a href="http://eatwellnyc.org/" target="_blank">The Nourishing Kitchen of New York City</a>, which provides free meals and cooking classes for low income families in East Harlem.</p>
<p>Congratulations to the <a href="http://web.sny.tv" target="_blank">SNY</a> team on their efforts &#8212; along with the <a href="http://newyork.yankees.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20090716&amp;content_id=5892320&amp;vkey=news_nyy&amp;fext=.jsp&amp;c_id=nyy" target="_blank">Yankees Hope Week</a> program, it&#8217;s good to read about the New York teams and their personnel giving back.</p>
