First of all, thank you for your comments. We always appreciate comments from fans, particularly those who truly appreciate what we've done. We actually considered putting additional sounds in. One has to be careful in putting sounds in on the web because it can get annoying to some people. Yes the mute button would be helpful, but that would then shut off the other sounds we have there now such as the bat hitting the ball. We have experimented with voice simulation to replicate a commentator, but it sounds somewhat articial. Voice simulation is the only practical way to go since we have over 100,000 games and counting in database. We will continue to consider these suggestions. Happy baseball!!!

While I do love this it would be great to have crowd sounds and HR celebration sounds aka fireworks for home teams (which would need to have a mute button for road games sans S-O-M(strat-o-matic does itr best) and the ultimate non TV addition would be the calling of the games not unlike radio and since the originals might be a bit pricey. A well versed articulate fan not unlike myself could give that 'old-timey radio' feel which not unlike relic-radio can be quite catchy.
