Follow the Bronx Bombers with NY Baseball, an unofficial app about the New York Yankees. We keep it simple, with Yankees news and opinion, live scores with TV info, play-by-play, team schedule, player stats, and MLB standings. We check in on what's happening around baseball and the minors, but we mostly focus on the Yanks. Never miss a pitch. Follow a game and the live score stays on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island with Live Activities. Add a Home Screen or Lock Screen widget and the score is there whenever you pick up your phone. The redesigned Game screen puts the score, count, runners on base, and the current batter and pitcher on one card, so you can see the whole at-bat at a glance. When you'd rather listen than read, have news stories read aloud to you. Tap any score to peek at that game, and swipe between leagues to see what's happening everywhere else. Choose light, dark, or team-color themes, and enjoy layouts built for iPad. You can also follow other New York teams like the Giants, Jets, Knicks, and Rangers. You decide if you want just the Yankees, or all your New York sports news in one app. A companion Apple Watch app lets you discreetly check the score when you're not supposed to. NY Baseball is free, with no sign-in required, no in-app purchases, and no nag screens. Note: This application is not affiliated with Major League Baseball or the New York Yankees.
