FYI: Due to T-Mobile's merger with Sprint, this appears to also work if you're a Sprint customer.

Looks like Joey Gallo may have been a false positive. He tested positive with the MLB saliva test, but now negative twice with the nose swabs (poor bastard). If he tests negative one more time, he can rejoin the team.

Turns out the positive test wasn't for Joey Gallo, but for Joey CALLO.

I wish they would allow this on Apple TV or Roku though without having to hook your laptop or ipad to the screen


it's not a matter of "Allowing" it; the technology in <most> hardware televisions is just not there. And probably even those who allow multi TV channel screens don't have firmware to allow the same functionality out of dongles (and Apple & Roku would have to code it in first too).


FWIW, PSVue on Apple TV allowed for 4 windows and Fubo TV allows for 2, the capability is there and the hardware definitely supports it. The developer has to code it, I don't know what that would entail though since iOS and TVos are related and iOS MLB.tv app supports it.


yeah, i didn't really think this through, did i. It's all in the app.

Yeah, I was thinking you were probably thinking about traditional cable where you need a tuner for each separate window.

I read the name “Joey Gallo” multiple times over the past few days in this thread and the entire time I was thinking it was Joey Votto. It wasn’t until I saw the headline on ESPN: “Rangers’ Joey Gallo tests negative” and clicked on the article (still thinking Joey Votto and thinking I had completely missed a trade or signing) and saw the picture when I realized, "Oh, that guy".
How dare you interrupt my Lime Rickey!
