The Mets Police

After watching the Diamondbacks-Astros game Aug. 23, I decided I'd like to describe the game to my friend Tyler, who was too busy to watch it. But mindful of the oft-repeated disclaimer, "Any rebroadcast, retransmission, or account of this game, without the express written consent of Major League Baseball, is prohibited," I wanted to square my plans with league offices first. I thought my chances were decent. After all, it's been done before.

The next morning I shot off an e-mail to MLB with my request and heard back within hours from Valerie Vieira, from the business development department in MLB Advanced Media. She asked me to call her.
