The first major deployment of Microsoft's Silverlight technology went live Tuesday, with the Web site for Major League Baseball using version 1.0 of the browser for interactive video content.
MLB.com is in the early stages of its use of Silverlight to enhance the site with multimedia content, said Matthew Gould, a spokesman for the site. Eventually, MLB.com plans to relaunch its MLB.TV live game media player, which streams baseball games on the Internet, with the technology. A beta of the revamped player is expected to be live in about a month, he said.
