The record-setting day for MLB.com mobile page views was Saturday, May 17 at the same time as Major League Baseball ballparks combined to draw the sixth-largest single-day attendance ever - 631,458 people - to the 16 scheduled games.

Since Opening Day of the 2008 regular season, MLB.com and the 30 club mobile sites have recorded nearly 325 million page views.

The mobile MLB site lets users get text and video alerts with team information.

Users can even listen to an audio record of gameday right from their mobile phones.

The site also offers wallpapers and ringtones and player alerts. The WAP site has content such as sports news, game schedules and scoreboards, too.
