Sony has announced the release of the MLB.TV app for the PS3 that will give subscribers the ability to watch every single regular season game live in HD. The application lets you access all sorts of ridiculous things, including:

MLB Scoreboard – See a schedule of today’s games (and set options to control whether or not you see the scores)
Home and away Feeds – Choose to watch either the home or away broadcast feed
HD quality video and DVR functionality – watch a live game in HD (with Live Game DVR functionality that lets you pause and rewind live games of fast-forward back to live game action)
Season Archive – want to re-live a great moment? go back and watch games you’ve missed from earlier in the season.
Scrollable Linescore – go directly to any half-inning to watch only that portion of the game.
Favorite Teams/Calendar Schedule – Scroll through the entire 2010 Major League Baseball schedule in calendar format or designate your favorite team(s) to see the schedule for that team.

The app is free to download, but you’ll need to have an MLB.TV subscription ($99.95 for standard, $119.95 for premium) to take advantage of it. it should be available on the PlayStation Network later today. If you listen carefully, you can just make out Andrew Pfister’s slow clap building to an inspired crescendo.
