X-Box Live Baseball

July 16th the Kansas City T-Bones minor league baseball team will play against the Schaumburg Flyers, but only for seven innings. The first two innings will be played virtually on an X-Box using EA Sports MVP Baseball. Through out this month and the next gamers will compete against each other to represent the T-Bone and the Flyers in the X-Box game.

This is a pretty cool idea, one which I would love to see other leagues pick up. For example, the NHL could latch onto this idea, but use the NHL games for Sega from like 1993. Hell, I could take the Lightning to a perfect season if they ever decided to play the entire season by video game. That would be a great way to get fans back into the game.
