Default How do I get AM radio on my iPhone??

So I was listening to some tunes last night on my phone while doing some work around the garage and realized that my favorite team was currently playing on AM radio. I used to have regular headphones with AM and FM radio on it so I would just listen to the game on AM and be happy. But I dont know how to do that with my iPhone.
I have Orb for streaming and Ive successfully added internet radio stations to Orb. However, I spent hours trying to locate this particlular AM station and couldnt find anything.
So, my question is, how can I get baseball games on my iPhone?

Get an AM radio and tune in to your game. Then, set the radio on top of your iPhone.

There ya go..."AM radio on your iPhone".

i no there are some web apps that work great with baseball and keep you pretty much up to date on every pitch, but i do not know of a web app that allows you to stream the annoucement, which i believe is what you are looking for.

the web app is fumbleview dot com if you wanted to try that out

Yeah, for baseball its Pickleview.com and it works ok if I want to continually check my phone for the play by play. But my hands were covered in greese and dirty from working in the garage so I didnt want to touch my phone. I also have IntelliScreen running so the updates are right there on my slide to unlock screen, but again, I didnt want to touch my phone.
I think I just need to find the radio station URL but for some reason Im having a hell of a time doing so.

In my opinion, the first thing to do is to visit the web site of your local AM station that broadcasts the games. Many AM sites stream their sportscasts almost live, save for the FCC panic-button delay.

Iphone news is slow today so tell me the name of your team, and the call letters of the AM station and I will help you do some digging.

jslappa, that would be excellent. My team is the White Sox and they are on AM670 the Score. Web site... http://www.670thescore.com/

They do stream it on there but I cant get that stream on my phone. If I try to access it from Safari it doesnt work cause its Flash. So I think I need to find the URL for it and add that to Orb. But like I said Im not finding it anywhere.

Hey iMerlin,

While I am searching, go to http://player.play.it.com and sign up for their Beta Tester deal. The site is not active yet for users, but it is the tech that streams many radio stations on the internet. Your station (WSCRAM) streams its shows with player.play.it.

If we can't find a link, you may get a private link as a beta tester.
