NEW YORK, Feb. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Baseball fans with visual impairments will benefit from the implementation of functional improvements to MLB.com, the

the American Council of the Blind, Bay State Council of the Blind and California Council of the Blind. All three organizations applaud this fan initiative
taken by MLBAM.

"MLBAM has undertaken groundbreaking work to make its web sites accessible and has assumed a strong leadership position among sports, media and entertainment
properties in doing so," said Mitch Pomerantz, President of the American Council of the Blind. "We certainly urge similar sites to make this level of commitment
in following MLBAM's lead."
