Toronto Blue Jays On IPad

The Blue Jays are on the IPad.  They looked good on it too.  I watched one inning.  The picture quality was amazing.    You need a Rogers AnyPlace TV login and the MLB Full Count IPad app to watch the Jays on IPad.  You can download the MLB Full Count Ipad App here.   Make sure Location services on the IPad is turned on.  Location services for the Full Count App should also be on too.  The Blue Jays are on it's own channel.
