Baseball fans: At Bat 13, the official app for MLB, is now available for Windows Phone 8

Great news for those who watch America’s favorite pastime, aka Major League Baseball (MLB), as their official app for the 2013 season is now available for free download. The app is of course limited to Windows Phone 8, as far as we can tell, but that should not be a surprise considering how much easier it is to develop for.

The app itself has a nice redesign and is chock full of features, allowing even the most devoted baseball fan to be content.

Features included for At Bat 13:

  • Watch the free MLB.TV Game of the Day or access your MLB.TV Premium subscription to watch every out-of-market game
  • MLB.TV Premium subscribers can access archives from the 2013 seasons on-demand
  • Home and away radio broadcasts
  • Live scoreboard, standings, and schedules
  • Pin your favorite teams to the Start screen to directly access their team page
  • Live Tiles display daily match ups
  • Closed captioning availability for live video

Our baseball guru, George is out catching bad guys today, so we can’t vouch for this new version of the app. Luckily there’s a reason why the dev gods created comments, so that you can share your thoughts with others, so go right ahead and do that below.

Pick up At Bat 13, the official app of MLB, here in the Store. Free, Windows Phone 8 only. Thanks, Brian P., and others for the tips!
