actually, while it very well seems as if there is an issue of interference from the new Silverlight format. According to the System Requirements page we should be able to listen to the games using MLB Audio package:

http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/help/faq_system_requirements.jsp

Audio:
MLB.com Gameday Audio, MLB Radio, and all other audio products come in WMA format and run on Windows Media Player version 9.0 or below or the Microsoft Silverlight Player. Audio content older than 2 years will play in the native player. Flash Player 9 or above is required.
So, I am not sure what the problem is...did anyone actually use a tablet to play MLB Audio last season? Could it also be a DRM issue that the current media players do not handle properly/at all?

I did fiddle with trying to get the stream URL to a game yesterday but it was a dismal failure, even with mplayer.
