Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: TailgateTime at 100% against MiLB's 36%. TailgateTime also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). MiLB's advantage is ratings volume (41K vs 8). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

TailgateTime holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MiLB has 41K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two.
