MLB At Bat is considered by many to be the best of the major US sports apps for iOS. It’s certainly a stellar app and has been really since the early days of the App Store.

If you’re a baseball fan this is a great time of the year, with Spring Training underway and Opening Day just weeks away. And a shiny new season update from MLB At Bat doesn’t hurt either.

Here’s an App Store link for MLB At Bat; it’s a free app with In-App purchases available for some of its premium features and access. It’s a universal app designed for both iPad and iPhone.
