The World's Best Baseball Game To Get Bundled With The Console Streaming Live MLB Games? No Brainer, Right?
An alleged Target inventory listing discovered by Joystiq seems to suggest that the Playstation 3 will be getting all bundled up with Sony’s MLB 10: The Show title. The bundle will include a copy of the game and a 250GB Playstation 3, and will release on June 13th. Joystiq’s followed up the story but been unable to confirm anything.
It would make sense though, specifically considering the recent deal Sony’s struck-up with the MLB to stream baseball games directly on the PS3 console. We’d imagine this is pretty exciting for baseball fans looking to pick a PS3. Let’s wait and see if the package is legit.
Live Major League Baseball's Heading To The Playstation 3.

It’s a pretty big deal for baseball fans, as Sony’s exclusive MLB The Show franchise has long been the market leader in baseball video games. This also might start the shift of video game consoles offering television and sports content – something we expect Microsoft will have a word or two to say about at this year’s E3.
